The film is also Bhatt's Hollywood debut, and also stars Jamie Dornan. Bhatt is reportedly playing the role of an Indian-American intelligence operative named Maya Singh.
Earlier, Bhatt spoken to Variety Magazine about filming while being pregnant.
“It was my first Hollywood big English picture experience and I had quite a task at hand because I was shooting for the first time an action movie,” Bhatt was reported as saying. “But I’m also pregnant so there were so many layers for me to deal with. But they made it so seamless and so easy and so comfortable for me. It’s something that I will never forget because of how beautifully and how well I was treated,” she was quoted as saying.
Bhatt also added that she was impressed with the safety precautions on set and that the team took good care of her, especially when she felt homesick while shooting in London.
Bhatt delivered the baby on Sunday at the HN Reliance Hospital in Mumbai, reported Hindustan Times. The couple announced the pregnancy in June.
