Even as the release date looms large over them, News18.com has now learnt that the makers of Shabaash Mithu are pulling out all stops to ensure that the Taapsee starrer turns out to be one of the best sports biopics. The makers are currently completing the patchwork for which the makers have recreated the Delhi international airport in Mumbai.
A source reveals, “A huge set - including a replica of the Delhi international airport- has been erected at the Ruby Tower in Dadar area of South Mumbai. The shoot went on for a couple of days from early morning till late evening. There were some important sequences in the film where the crowd is seen cheering up the rather dejected cricketer. The shoot involved a lot of junior artists despite which all the necessary Covid protocols were being followed."
