According to sources "Our first day of shoot with SRK was on a secluded beach in Goa. Alia and SRK both of them had to walk a lot to reach their first mark for every take and then do the same over and over again for different shots as it was a walk and talk scene. An ATV was called on set that day, so that SRK and Alia could just ride the ATV up and down on the stretch of the beach and not tire themselves up."
The film is directed by Gauri Shinde and produced by Gauri Khan, Karan Johar & Gauri Shinde. 'Dear Zindagi' is slated to hit cinemas on November 25, 2016.
