Chris Hemsworth shot for his film Dhaka (also starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Randeep Hooda) in India.

Last year, Chris Hemsworth had travelled to India to shoot for his film Dhaka, which also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Randeep Hooda in pivotal roles. The Avengers: Endgame star, who has a huge fan following in India was immediately engulfed by thousands of fans on the streets as he shot for the upcoming movie. Chris had even taken to his Instagram page to show how grateful he was for his Indian fans and that he had a fabulous time in the country during his short stay.

In an EXCLUSIVE interview with Pinkvilla, when we asked Chris what he would take back from his experience of shooting in India, the handsome actor revealed, "From all of the locations we were shooting, I have never seen so many people turn up and watch. At the end of every take, they would cheer and scream and I felt like a musician on the stage with thousands of people. I have never had that kind of energy. We received such a warm welcoming. It was a pretty chaotic shoot for us, making a lot of noise and there was a lot of disturbance."

That’s a wrap for the India portion of our shoot, next stop Thailand. Cant say enough how grateful we are to the people of India for letting us run riot through the streets while shooting what I think could be some of the most intense and exciting action sequences ever done. Our director @thesamhargrave is bringing it to a whole new level #netflix #india

"But, people could not have been more accommodating. I'd take the people. That was certainly what sticks out and the reason why I would love to go back there and shoot or holiday there," Hemsworth added.
