Morocco will host part of the shoot for the upcoming Indian feature Captain India, starring Bollywood actor Kartik Aaryan, according to Indian entertainment outlet Pinkvilla.

 Inspired by a true story, the film will see Aaryan portray an Indian Air Force pilot under the direction of Shimit Amin, known for Chak De! India (2007) and Rocket Singh (2009).

Location scouting has already taken place in the kingdom, with filming scheduled between March and July 2026 ahead of a theatrical release in the first half of 2027. 

The production follows Aaryan’s recent box-office success Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and reflects Morocco’s growing profile as a global filming hub.

The country has previously hosted major shoots including Mission Impossible – Rogue Nation (2015), The Old Guard (2020), Mission Impossible – Dead Reckoning (2023), Gladiator II and Badh (2024), and The Odyssey (2025).
