This was actually supposed to happen in India but because it was monsoon time then, we were scouting for locations and we found this location.”

He added, “I thought I would have to look for some other location as it was the Presidential Palace, but they said ‘It is Ukraine, you can get the job done.’ I’m so thankful to the Ukrainian team. The colours of the palace, the size of the palace, the size of the ground for the dancers to be there was the exact right size.”
