Bollywood star Katrina Kaif has kick-started her Bharat journey as the actress headed to Malta for shooting on Friday. While the film went on floors earlier last month, the 35-year-old begins her first schedule now. The Dhoom 3 star will join Salman Khan, who started shooting for his second schedule of the film in the European island country last week.

The actress posted an Instagram story announcing her departure for Malta.

After Priyanka Chopra walked out of the film, Katrina was roped in to play the lead, opposite the 'Dabangg' star. The film also stars Tabu and Disha Patani in pivotal roles.

Bharat is set to have a character-driven story spanning across many periods and will be shot across exotic locations in Malta and Abu Dhabi, besides Punjab and Delhi in India. Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, the flick is slated to hit theatres on June 5, next year.
