The first day of shoot of Dilwale began on a positive note with the upbeat cast and crew, including actor Varun Dhawan and director Rohit Shetty, clicking selfies and group pictures on the sets of the film. Conspicuous by his absence was the film's lead actor Shah Rukh Khan who was in Croatia shooting for his upcoming film Fan.

A new journey a new film begins tomorrow the biggest Film Iv ever been part of. #Dilwale
