Project K, Starring Prabhas And Deepika Padukone, Will Have Hollywood Action Directors

Project K, which stars Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, and Amitabh Bachchan, has been dubbed the biggest action spectacular in Indian cinema. It is marketed as the year-end special film for Vyjayanthi Movies and is an action-packed, futuristic thriller directed by Nag Ashwin. The cast and crew have been filming Project K for the past year on a variety of schedules, but little is known about the universe that Nag Ashwin is attempting to establish among the audience. It was revealed that Project K will be an action extravaganza unlike any other, thanks to the involvement of numerous Hollywood-based action directors.

 
It takes place in the future and is based on the events of World War 3. A source close to the project said, "The action scenes in the film are of such magnitude that giving it to just one action director would not do justice to the vision. The film has up to five prolonged action blocks, and in a first-of-its-kind strategy, the producers have hired multiple action directors to design the epic battle unfold on screen. Project K's action sequences are comparable to numerous action sequences in a full-length movie. And for that reason, the movie has four to five distinct action units at work on it.
 
Project K utilized a blue and green screen setup to be shot like a Hollywood movie. Not only that, but every schedule for the movie is followed by a break because Nag Ashwin, the director, and his crew are presently editing the scenes that were shot during the previously mentioned phase of the shoot. "This epic is the focus of all our time and effort. The team promptly reshoots any aspect that does not work effectively on the edit table in accordance with the requirements of the technology. It's a first-of-its-kind effort to include Indian cinema and reputable international technicians. The source stated that the green screen setup and camera quality were both excellent for creating an IMAX experience.
 
Project K's filming is anticipated to be finished by the first quarter of 2023, with an early 2024 release date as the goal. Our source claims that despite the movie being set in the future, the main conflict has some ties to the Mahabharata. "The movie's Amitabh Bachchan persona was influenced by Ashwathama. In fact, he shares a significant action scene with Prabhas in the movie. After a long time, the audience would finally get to watch Big B in full-fledged action," the person said.
 
It's interesting that Prabhas stars in two of the most expensive Indian movies, Adipurush and Project K, demonstrating the producers' confidence in his ability to draw viewers to movie theaters throughout the world.
