Not all seems to be going smooth in the making of Vivek Agnihotri’s movie Goal .
Reports have it that the movie’s shooting is not progressing at the planned pace because of which the film’s actors – John Abraham , Arshad Warsi , Bipasha Basu and Boman Irani – may have to stay in London longer than expected for the shooting. This might affect the schedules of their other Bollywood movies.
Sources are quoted as saying that because the logistics involved in the making of the film are huge and because the film features many actors, coordination on the sets is not easily achieved.
Rumour also has it that there are some creative differences between the movie’s director Vivek Agnihotri and the film’s stars.
Recently, Arshad Warsi reportedly arrived late on the sets of the film, much to the chagrin of his co-star Bipasha Basu. And then there are also snowstorms making it difficult to shoot in open stadiums in London.
However, Vivek Agnihotri says he hopes to finish the London schedule by May 15.
‘Goal’ has John and Arshad playing footballers. Bipasha plays a physiotherapist while Boman plays the team’s coach. The film is being shot in stadiums in UK, including the Manchester United Stadium.
