Cast and crew of ‘Dhak Dhak’ ride from from Delhi to Khardung La

It was a ride of a lifetime for the cast and crew of Dhak Dhak, as they rode from Delhi to shoot in Khardung La. For the first time in the history of Indian cinema, a full unit rode to the highest motorable pass in the world to shoot a scene with all the lead actors, including Dia Mirza, Fatima Sana Sheikh, Ratna Pathak Shah and Sanjana Sanghi.

Braving extreme weather, amidst heavy rainfall, sandstorms and temperatures ranging from 48 degrees to -2 degrees, the team wrapped the difficult Ladakh schedule with much enthusiasm.

Shares Ratna Pathak Shah, “If someone had told me six months ago that I would be riding a bike all the way to Ladakh at 65 years of age, I would have laughed. This film has been special to me in many ways. It has forced me to face my fears, taught me how to trust myself, my colleagues and my crew in stressful situations, taken me to one of the most beautiful and awe-inspiring places in the world and introduced me to some wonderful people. When a film becomes an adventure for all involved, it stops being a product and becomes an experience. The story becomes a part of us.” — MS
