During the filming of Aamir Khan’s ‘Dhoom 3’, the Department of Tourism Philippines had received a request from Yashraj films (producers of Dhoom 3) to look for a bridge in one of the more rustic areas in the country, to shoot one crucial scene.

Agas-Agas Bridge in Sogod, Southern Leyte, the highest one in Philippines was the location suggested for shooting and the major Indian production house was even considering it as a possible bridge candidate for their blockbuster movie.



But eventually, Yashraj films decided to go in for another location to film the crucial climax scene, which was shot at Contra Dam in Switzerland.
