Hollywood or Bollywood?

Recently we had the Boulevard below the apartment turned into a Hollywood or Bollywood film set. Serious security guards (& lots of them) appeared along the surrounding streets, roads were closed and then fast cars, motorbikes and semi-trailers started speeding up and down. I was walking home from the Mall when I first came across a live run - I was not allowed to stand still and watch and certainly not allowed to take photos, hulking security guards everywhere kept people moving.

There were men with guns, fast motorbikes that skidded sideways, fighting on moving vehicles - with drones, film crews and lots of whizzy equipment including an ambulance following along. This went on over 2 days with rumours abounding in the local media about it being the new Mission Impossible movies - Tom Cruise & his producer were apparently in town, as was the even more popular Bollywood star Shahrukh Khan with an upcoming movie Pathan. No-one could stop us however from taking shots from the balcony. It was certainly entertaining!
