James Bond producers have threatened to shift filming from India to South Africa if permission to shoot a show-stopping train stunt is refused.

Bosses at Take One Productions, who are responsible for the location shoot, want to block off a section of railroad in Ahmadabad and Goa for an ambitious sequence featuring Daniel Craig and his stunt double.

However, according to The Times of India, they are becoming frustrated at officials' slowness in granting permission and are threatening to move the shoot to South Africa instead.

Take One's Pravesh Sahni says, "South African authorities are waiting to provide everything that is required to support this movie.

“If we can't get this co-operation from India, the film will no longer be shot here."

It will be the twenty third Bond movie and will see Daniel Craig take on the role of 007 for the third time.
