  1. Just met Aamir at lake and Randolph ..he came out of his vanity van to meet his fans..he looks amazing..they haven’t started shooting yet.

      • is Sooji’s comment – “Shilpa, that is wonderful! I am driving from Naperville. So, I was hoping to get some cues on parking and where to spot AK. I am planning on arriving at 10 PM and stay until late. Thanks again!” the last comment on the onlocation website?

        I am not able to see any comments after that! Is the shooting cancelled today?

        Also no one is replying on facebook.. Please let me know any updates.

        Thank u so much.

  3. looks like a lot of rain is headed to Chicago this afternoon….will they still shoot? Updates are very helpful…I am coming in from Lafayette Indiana!

    • Hello Guys, could you tell the shooting schedule for this week – is there a shooting today and what’s the location?

    • I don’t think there’s anything going on tonight. Just coming back from work and I took the scenic route around most of the shooting sites and nothing doing.

  23. They might be off tonight too, I’n not sure exactly what their schedule is but usually if a production shoots all weekend they take two days off during the week, has anyone heard anything differently?

      • I heard that they aren’t doing Navy Pier tonight. And that’s believable because all their equipment is on randolph right now, and they have all the motorbikes out (I just drove by from work). Which makes it seem that they would be shooting around downtown, however, there’s other news that they are shooting in the burbs. So not sure, to be honest. Sorry. If I hear or see anything else, i’ll be sure to post.

  36. Hey does anyone know , where they will be shooting this weekend ? like friday night , saturday night and sunday night , or what would be timings ?

  39. Hey guys someone tried to leave this message but for some reason it came to my email instead:

    “august 30 after 9 pm woodfield mall .. confirmed”

    • Hi..
      Would u know whr r they shooting tomorrow Sunday sep 2nd? I am down from Omaha for couple of days and trying to see if we can manage to have a glimpse of AK, AB and KK..

  41. As per above comments today they will be at Woodfield mall.. which is just half mile away frm my home.. will update u guys if thr is any shooting today 🙂

  42. I am assuming they won’t have the shooting until after 10pm since the mall closes at 9pm.. I wonder if they have any equipment/motor bikes hidden somewhere perhaps a warehouse.. @9am when I was heading to work I didnt see any trucks.

  49. According to a security guard, they are supposed to be at Six flags Grt America on Monday. I have no idea how much of it is true. Please dont count on this as it is pretty far from Chicago unless someone else has already heard about this.

    Also, they are planning to do day shoots next week as all they have done so far is night shoots. Again not 100% sure. but these are the words of the security.

  70. My friends and i were im downtown near Randolph and lasalle and in the surrounding area from 1-2am…there were no vamity fans or any hint of a filming. Just wanted to update you guys.

    • If it helps.. They’re not shooting today because it’s their day off. However, they will be shooting tomorrow around Columbus and walker drive . I think if you go around 2-5, you’ll most likely find them. Hope this info helps .

  73. Hi, i am a fan of aamir khan and just coming to chicago from Georgia on 20th to see if i can get lucky to get a glance of him. Can anyone find out where and when they are shooting on 20th? i really appreciate it.

    • Wow, that’s cool. But wait until tomorrow and go to Wacker and Columbus bridge, and you can see filming. And the timings are anytime after 7 or 7:30 am.

    • Can someone let me know where exactly today’s and tomorrow’s filming taking place? I was around Columbus and Wacker today morning, but couldn’t find any sign of shooting…

        • Dhaval, that’s funny… shooting vs. “Shooting”.
          Guys, south side of Chicago is not where you want to go in the nights. There is no 24/7 shooting of Dhoom going on there. Today they were shooting the movie on Chicago river between Columbus and Lake Shore drive in downtown. Likely they are done with river shoot so their next location may be somewhere else.

  79. They aren’t letting anyone in, you have to be there early – so they tell you to clear the place and go onto the bridge (the last one on Chicago river) – and you get a spectacular view of everything. Also the filming will go on until 5, and Aamir is indeed there.

  84. they were shooting my trump tower today. Amir, AB and Uday. All action stuff. Just go by there tomorrow around 1030-11am. They are cool guys… sometimes they just wave or they walk up to you have take pics. the security guys are a pain in the butt. Actors are cool.

  87. shooting took place on Wabash right on the bridge by the river all day today. I’m sure they’re still there. Went in the morning and in the afternoon, didn’t see AK…i think it was only the stunt. security guards won’t even let you stand there..:( does anyone know what the schedule is for this week and when is the best time to catch him (during day vs. night)? thank you.

  92. Please let me know if you know about coming weekend (22-23 sept)… place and timing!
    I heard Kaitrina Kaif is in town too….
    PLEASE LET ME KNOW….THANKS

  103. I NEED to see aamir before he leaves. I’ve been postponing meeting him for reasons beyond me. I think I actually may pee my pants or pass out and most likely, both. But I have to see him. Mein maar jawan….

  108. hey guys,
    can you please let me knw where they will be shooting on tuesday or thursday? i really want to meet aamir khan and katrina before they leave. i’m actually taking a day off from work so i can meet them. pleaseeee let me knowww! also, ill have to take metra so it will take me like 2 hours to get to the city so i want to make sure they are filming those days so i can meet them. pleaseeee let me know. thank you so much.
