Ajay Devgn resumes work on Bhuj: The Pride Of India in Hyderabad, to begin shooting for Mayday with Amitabh Bachchan in December?

Ajay Devgn and the team of his upcoming film Bhuj: The Pride Of India had to stall the shoot due to the COVID-19 lockdown. Eight months later, the actor reportedly resumed shoot in Hyderabad's Ramoji Film City. Ajay started work on the war film yesterday, if reports are to be believed. A source close to the development told a leading daily that the team will call it a wrap after a 10-day schedule. The cast and crew of the Abhishek Dudhaiya directorial are ensuring that all guidelines are followed. 

"Considering major portions of the war drama were filmed well before the lockdown, the makers have charted out a 10-day schedule, following which they can call it a wrap. A set has been erected at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad, and the team will adhere to the on-set guidelines during the stint," the source told. Reportedly, Sanjay Dutt will be joining the team on the sets today.
