Vishal Bhardwaj’s Khufiya has piqued curiosity since its announcement last September. While leads Tabu and Ali Fazal shot a major chunk of the espionage thriller in Delhi and Mumbai over the past few months, one hears that the cast and crew have now headed to Canada for the final schedule of the Netflix film. From Maqbool (2003) to Haider (2014), most of Bhardwaj’s stories have been rooted in or adapted to the Indian milieu, thus leaving little scope to shoot in international locales. An exception was 7 Khoon Maaf (2011), a portion of which was shot in Russia. Khufiya, based on Amar Bhushan’s novel Escape to Nowhere, is among the director’s few foreign shoots.
