Later in the interview, Tiger Shroff himself spoke and revealed that they had very little shooting time, so they had to do everything live-action. They used to shoot and edit on the set and then send the scenes to India.

Tiger Shroff said that because they had to release the film in March this year, they were busy shooting till November and December. Tiger then added that they did not have time to use VFX separately. So they decided that whether it be tank or chopper or weapons, they would do all the action scenes live.

Baaghi 3 is set to release on March 6, 2020, and alongside Tiger Shroff, the film also stars Riteish Deshmukh and Shraddha Kapoor in prominent roles.
