“There is a lot of work that is going on. Saif and Prabhas have undergone a remarkable physical transformation and there is massive action involved too. There is a lot of physical transformation that Prabhas has undergone from an artiste’s point of view and he continues to work on it even now as we shoot. With Saif Ali Khan, it is evident in the pictures, but I cannot reveal much,” Raut informed The Times of India.
Raut stated that the group has completed 30% of the movie and is following strict Covid-19 protocols on the set. “We’re getting tested often because that’s the protocol that is set up and, of course, the team has been limited. So, there are modifications; the kind of protocol that is followed on the sets is very different. Everybody is wearing masks because I follow that very strictly and there is constant inspection also,” the director stated including that the group has gotten used to the brand new on-set surroundings.
Prabhas and Saif Ali Khan’s highly-anticipated interval drama, which is bankrolled by Bhushan Kumar’s T-Series, went on flooring in February.
Adipurush is being shot in Hindi and Telugu, and can launch in Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada as effectively. The movie is scheduled for August 11, 2022 launch.
