Why does the cast of ‘Thugs Of Hindostan’ wear masks on sets? Amitabh Bachchan reveals

Legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan, who is shooting for ‘Thugs Of Hindostan’ along with Aamir Khan, recently revealed that the cast and crew of the film has been asked to wear masks on sets and the reason is that a few of them took leave due to common cold.

Mr Bachchan wrote on his personal blog, “At work on the sets its like a zombied region as masked men and women move about dexterously getting work done, one way or the other… Masked? Yes, masked…for we have or rather one of the AD’s (additional directors) that are in charge of medical and environ and weather conditions, have been investigating the rapid rise, from the absence register of those that work on production. And their research and analysis has found the reason to be, an influx , an invasion, a tidal wave of immense destructive power, a storm more powerful than those that are repeatedly hitting the South West coasts of the US… The common cold.” (Also Read: LEAKED!

He further wrote, “Time for the bed and perhaps a few more pictures from ‘TOH’ where I shoot day and night… So here are the pictures from the very important YRF production: ‘Thugs of Hindostan’ Naah… that cannot be done just yet. Sorry about that.” Helmed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, ‘Thugs Of Hindostan’ also features Katrina Kaif, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Jackie Shroff.
