An upcoming film has been the talk of the town ever since it was announced. In fact, it has been attempted to be made several times. However, it has finally happened in 2019. And it is releasing pretty soon! While everyone has been raving about how amazing the movie looks and have been praising the director, little do they know what actually transpired! Confused? Well, let us tell you that the director shot the movie only after every frame and scene was approved by the producer. Shocking, right? But the producer is a biggie and he called all the shots on the movie. The actors were also comfortable with this arrangement because they knew the film was in good hands!
It is one of the most larger than life movies for the production company. And hence, the producer as well as the directors did not want to take any risk. Hence, after every shot was set, the director used to take pictures of the frame and send it to the producer. WhatsApp texts would be exchanged before the actors came, suggestions would be incorporated and then the shot was finally called and taken. In fact, even during outdoor shoots and also if the producer was out, everyone used to wait for approvals before filming.
But looks like it has all paid off! The promos and the movie looks magnificent. In fact, the movie is one of the most-anticipated films. It is getting a wide release and the trade is going gaga about the opening it will command. With an extended opening weekend, we are sure it will break a few records at the box office. But could you guess the director, producer and movie we are talking about? Share with us your thoughts in the comments section below!
