AN EVENING IN PARIS FOR PATHAAN

Then, Paris. Bollywood's fascination with the Eiffel Tower, obviously, is simply unmatched, from An Evening In Paris to Befikre, and so many others.

FIRST INDIAN MOVIE

A stunning chase between John Abraham and Shah Rukh Khan is shot in winter on Lake Baikal, in Siberia, Russia. Pathaan is the first Indian movie to be shot here.

SURREAL WINTER

Every winter, Lake Baikal freezes in layers, making it quite safe to take the heaviest of your vehicles on it. Surreal.
