Italy Comes To Hyd For Prabhas

As many as 350 Italian dancers have been brought to Hyderabad for Prabhas. The makers of Prabhas Radhe Shyam are splurging on the film’s making. The Covid-19 pandemic has indeed increased the budget of the film in addition to the delay and cancellation of its foreign schedules.

Owing to a spike in Covid cases in the UK and detection of new strain, the shooting schedule of Prabhas’ Radhe Shyam in Italy has been called off. The unit had called off its Italy schedule and decided to shoot portions of Italy in Hyderabad itself. A romantic song planned on Prabhas and Pooja Hegde was supposed to be shot entirely in Italy. However, the makers are shooting the same song in Hyderabad.

For this song, 350 Italian dancers traveled to Hyderabad and participated in the song’s shoot. These dancers have all been tested negative for Covid. All their visas, travel and stay have been taken care of by the UV Creations. A set recreating Italy’s properties, environment is erected in Annapurna Seven Acres Studios. And the song is shot in this Italian backdrop.

Sources in the know say that special care has been taken care of so that the song should look very real on screen as if the song is shot in Italy and not in Hyderabad. In fact, the makers have also opted for Virtual Production which is first of its kind in Tollywood. These are all going to give all new experience to cinema lovers.

A glimpse of Radhe Shyam is planned to unveil for Sankranthi. The Telugu film is likely to release on April 30 along with Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam versions simultaneously.
