Salman and Kabir braved freezing temperatures to shoot for the film.

'Minus 2 degrees... 11700 ft above sea level.. Zoji La pass.. Kashmir  #BajrangiBhaijaan,' Kabir tweeted with this picture.

 

They also shot in the blistering Rajasthan, where the film's 70 pr cent of shooting was completed.

 

Kabir Khan had to entrust an unusual local guide to get him around Rajasthan.

'My constant companion on set... Couldn't Hv done this schedule without him,' he wrote with this picture.

 

Sallu monkeys around with fellow performers while shooting the song Selfie Le Le Re.

 

While in Rajasthan, Salman also spent some time with differently-abled locals, arranged by Rajasthan's Tourism Minsiter Bina Kak's NGO Umang.

A family friend of the Khans, Bina Kak played Salman's slap-happy mother in Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya.  

 

He also mingled with his Kashmiri fans.

 

All this while he also took in the scenic beauty and moments of calm in the valley.

'KASHMIR bahut AMEER in natural beauty... Maashallah Maashallah,' Salman wrote with this picture.

'Kashmiri sev se sweeter hai Kashmiri bachhe.'

He was clearly bowled over by Kashmiri kids.

 

Another breathtaking landscape that Sallu wanted all his Twitter fans to see.

'Flood Kashmir with only tourism tourism tourism,' he wrote.

 

'Kashmir nahi dekha toh Kya dekha kehtey hai kahin jannat hai toh woh idharich hai idharich hai idharich hai.'

Salman also made a strong case for J&K tourism in his quirky style.
