Thousands of people throng to Baahubali's first outdoor shoot!
S S Rajamouli's upcoming period drama Baahubali has piqued people's interest already.
The
hype surrounding the film is not without a reason and the stellar cast
comprising Prabhas, Rana Daggubati and Anushka Shetty has ensured that
the film continues to make news.
The
cast and crew of the film got a first taste of people's curiosity when
they landed in Kurnool in early July to shoot the film. As soon as the
news spread around that Rajamouli and his team had come to Kurnool, a
small town in AP, thousands of people thronged to the shooting spot.
The entire team was caught off-guard and controlling the crowd became a mammoth task. Nearly 30, 000 people turned up on location.
It was a snowballing effect and the crowds kept soaring as time passed.
Initially,
Rajamouli had planned to shoot few crucial scenes in Kurnool; however,
incessant rainfall and boisterous crowds deterred him from continuing
the shoot.
Before
calling off the shoot, he decided to make the best opportunity of the
pandemonium on the shooting spot. After Prabhas and Rana pacified the
crowd to keep calm, Rajamouli took centre stage and requested everyone
to scream 'Jai Baahubali' in sync. Interestingly, the
entire incident was captured by the sound department so that it can be
used in the film's final cut to create the right ambient sound in some
crucial scenes.
The
film stars Prabhas, Rana, Anushka in lead roles whereas Ramya Krishna,
Nassar, Sathyaraj, Kicha Sudeep, Adivi Sesh and Subbaraju will be
playing supporting roles. The film's shooting is currently going on in
Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad and the next schedule is going to take place
in Kerala.
