Director Farhan Akhtar said that Berlin holds a "certain degree of mystery" for Indian filmgoers, who are used to London or Paris for European movie scenes.
Much of the movie will be set around famous Berlin locations like the Brandenburg Gate and the 1936 Olympic Stadium, but filmmakers provided no plot specifics.
"We are proud that we have discovered Berlin for Indians," the Bollywood star said, adding the city could supplant Paris and London as favourite European destinations.
