A trip to the busy and starry sets of Tubelight.

Are you ready for Salman Khan's Tubelight?

Directed by Kabir Khan, the film is set against the backdrop of the 1962 India-China War, and revolves around an Indian soldier who falls in love with a Chinese girl (here's a look at Salman's new heroine Zhu Zhu).

Shah Rukh Khan has a cameo in the film, please scroll down to see his look.

The film also stars Salman's brother Sohail Khan and the adorable Matin Rey Tangu, all of five years old.

A look at behind-the-scenes pictures, shared on Instagram by Salman, Kabir Khan, producer Amar Butala.

Since the film is set during the India-China War, more than 600 actors were cast to play soldiers.

Kabir Khan directed Salman earlier in Ek Tha Tiger and Bajrangi Bhaijaan.

The script required untouched locations at a high altitude and challenging weather conditions.
