Mumbai, April 7 (NationPress) Emraan Hashmi shared that they garnered immense support from the local residents and authorities in Kashmir during the filming of their action-packed movie, 'Ground Zero'.
While speaking at the trainer launch event, Hashmi reflected on one of his lines from the clip - 'Kya sirf Kashmir ki zameen hamari hain ya log bhi?' (Does only the land of Kashmir belong to us, or also the people?)
When asked if he found the answer to this question while filming in the valley, Hashmi responded, 'During the shoot, we received assistance from the locals, authorities, BSF, CRPF, and the J&K Police. There is a decorum there- we faced no obstacles because of them during the shoot- that was a support system for us from Srinagar.'
The 'Jannat' star remarked, 'It was my first visit to Srinagar for the filming of 'Ground Zero', and I truly enjoyed the location. Our stay lasted about 30-35 days, and it was a wonderful experience. We had a fantastic time shooting in Srinagar.'
