This year’s biggest Diwali release is Farhan Akhtar’s remake of the 70s classic Don, featuring Shahrukh Khan in the title role played by Amitabh Bachchan in the original. But this time, Don promises to be a lot more exciting. Shot entirely in Malaysia, Don has a slick look with a gritty feel.


And that’s not all, Don has been to places where even Hollywood was not allowed to enter. While Sean Connery – Catherine Zeta Jones starrer Entrapment was denied permission to shoot at the Petronas Twin Towers in Kaula Lumpur, Malaysia, Farhan and Ritesh Sidhwani not only got permission to shoot in the towers but also on the fly-bridge between the two towers. In fact, Farhan and the unit was invited by Malaysia’s former Prime Minister Dr. Mahathir who asked them to use his private office premises for the shoot. This location was reportedly used for the sequence in which JJ escapes with his kids in the original film.
