"Hrithik plays the role of an Indian Airforce Pilot and to get into the skin of his character, he will be spending some time with the Air Base Officers to observe them closely. The workshops will be followed by a month-long shoot schedule for Hrithik,” revealed a source close to the development, adding further that the principal shoot of Fighter begins on November 15. “The first schedule takes place outside Mumbai from November 15.
