The Proton Satria Neo, Savvy, and Saga were seen on screen several times in the film, amongst a sea of other popular Japanese cars like the Toyota Vios and Fortuner. Interesting fact: the Satria Neo and Savvy are not offered in Bangladesh, and before you ask “how come they’re in it then?”, it is because the film was largely shot in the Land Of Smiles, Thailand.

Personally, we have not seen the film just yet but knowing that there is some good ol’ action that features God of Thunder alongside our beloved Proton, we would give it a watch. What other films or TV shows that feature Proton have you’ve seen or known of? Let us know in the comment!
