Producer Arbaaz Khan explains, "We were to fly today to Switzerland to shoot for a romantic song sequence choreographed on Sonakshi and Salman but now thanks to Eyjafjallajokull (the name of the Icelandic glacier where the volcano erupted), we have had to shift our venue to Dubai."

Sohail and Arbaaz leave for Dubai today for a recce. "We tried working out the flights to Switzerland till the last moment but it just wasn't happening. We had Salman's dates and didn't want to waste them by postponing the schedule.



Dubai was always an alternate plan and it worked, so now we are going there. It's an emotional storytelling romantic song filmed on Sonakshi and Salman travelling in a romantic situation, and can be shot anywhere from Ladakh to Switzerland or Dubai."

Salman, Sonakshi and the unit join Arbaaz and Sohail tomorrow in Dubai. The call to go to Dubai to shoot was taken five days ago and necessary arrangements were made.
