    On the 11th of April mega production titled “Kick” - directed and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala - has begun filming. It is the first Indian project of this scale in the history of Warsaw.

    Shooting of Kick by Sajid NadiadwalaParts of the movie executed in Warsaw are not only the most difficult action scenes that were filmed so far in Poland, but also the biggest action scenes executed for Bollywood cinema. Full of tension, spectacular action and chase scenes, just like in Hollywood movies, will be executed in Warsaw. Director and producer of this project - Sajid Nadiadwala is one of the most significant people of the Indian film industry.

    The first day brought a lot of excitement for both, the team working on the film, and the viewers around the Palace of Culture and Science whom watched extremely difficult shots. Friday shots were realized quickly and efficiently. Part of the jump sequence from the 30th Floor of the Palace of Culture and Science, Salman Khan has done in person. The scene did not caused any problems, our athletic star easily coped with similar challenges.

    Thanks to this scene, the Warsaw Palace of Culture and Science will be recognized by people all over the world. It is undoubtedly one of the most important buildings in the capital. Bollywood Cinema, which is popular all over the world, is also a great opportunity to promote Warsaw. Everyone, to whom the development of the city is important, is hoping for this promotion.

    “Kick” is another international production, after “Spies” series and the Oscar-winning, “The Pianist” in which the Polish capital appears.
