The itinerary starts in the north of Puglia in the beautiful headland of Gargano and ends at the sea scenario of Salento in the south, going through the green land of Trulli in the centre of the region.

Sajid Nadiadwala’s next ventures Baaghi and Dishoom are slated to hit the theatres on April 29 and July 29, 2016, respectively.
