MI: Mumbai

Published April 30, 2011

Yes folks, these days the fourth edition of Mission Impossible is being shot in Bombay, sorry Mumbai. From there the unit will travel to Bangalore, ah, Bengaluru, and no, the unit doesn’t include Tom Cruise or Anil Kapoor, the hero and the villain of the film, respectively.

On April 24 and 25, the film crew was seen whizzing through the narrow lanes of Mumbai in BMW SS01 with the leading lady of the film perched in it. The expensive Hollywood cameras were following the crew like a staunch stalker.

A big crowd gathered to witness the hi-tech shoot but was disappointed to know that there wasn’t Tom C or Anil K to thrill them. In place of both actors, their doppelgangers (read: body double) were shooting the scenes for them.
