Adipurush is one of the most awaited films of Indian cinema. The pan-Indian film stars Prabhas as Adipurush, Saif Ali Khan as Lankesh, and Kirti Sanon as Sita in lead roles. The film is based on Indian mythology, Ramayana, directed by the maestro of period drama, Om Raut.
The film was announced last year in February but got postponed many due to novel coronavirus and fire breakage at the sets. Now as the pandemic has slowed down a bit, the Adipurush team is back in action.
According to the reports, the makers of the film have re-built the entire set in Mumbai at Mehboob Studios where the fire broke out. A source added, “The team had finished 30 percent of the shoot before starting the new schedule. There was a massive loss due to the fire. Since it is a period drama, a lot of costumes were destroyed. However, the costume design team has been working hard to remake the costumes and match the schedule.
“A massive chroma set has been erected in Mehboob studios. Saif and Kriti have given their fresh dates and they have been shooting for the film from the beginning of this month. Prabhas on the other hand is yet to join the cast,” the source added.
The source further reveals, “Prabhas recently gave a clap for his upcoming film which is tentatively titled ‘Project K’ which also features Amitabh Bachchan and Deepika Padukone. The actor is finishing his other project Radhe Shyam in Hyderabad before joining the cast of Adiprusuh next month. On the other hand, Saif is planning to wrap up the major portion of his part before he jets off to Europe for Vikram Vedha remake.”
Adipurush is helmed on a whopping budget of Rs. 500 crore, and is bankrolled under T- Series, and Retrophiles. The 3D extravaganza will be shot simultaneously in Telugu and Hindi language, later it will be dubbed in Malayalam, Tamil, Kannada, and several other foreign languages. The film is officially set to hit the theatres on August 11, 2022.
