the script and locations for the movie have been finalized.[2] Shooting for Don 2 began from
October 10, 2010 in Berlin, Germany. Shah Rukh Khan was asked to bulk up for the movie and to develop a six- pack.[3] In December 2010, shooting ended in Berlin and actors returned to India.[4] In February 2011, the actors flew to Malaysia for the second phase of the shoot which lasted for a month.

on the internet. Later, Farhan Akhtar tweeted that the first theatrical trailer
of the movie and its theatrical poster
would be released along with his

in Mumbai, though it was cancelled later and the promo was released on the internet.[6] International version Apparently, an international version
for Don 2 is to be released as well. This
version will have no songs and trimmed drama.[7] Rights Reliance Big Pictures has bought the rights of Don 2 from Excel Entertainment for reportedly Rs. 125 crore. The price has yet to be

from Excel Entertainment in a multi- film deal.[8] Music The music and the original score of the
