Few days back it was rumoured that the Adipurush team is shifting base to Hyderabad after the cases have surged in Mumbai and with the restrictions implemented by the Maharashtra government. Subsequently, the entire team has moved to Hyderabad and is now erecting sets in the outskirts which will get complete by another six to seven days.
With the relocation and rebuilding of sets again, Adipurush budget has escalated massively and it is rumoured that had director Om Raut listened to Prabhas, the budget wouldn’t have escalated. Apparently, Prabhas was apprehensive about filming in Mumbai since the beginning.
On the contrary Om Raut believed that as everyone hails from Mumbai, it is only Prabhas who had to move in. But no one thought that pandemic would play a spoiler on the shoot which would come to a standstill. So far, only 20 percent has been completed.
As the reconstruction of the sets is underway in Hyderabad, the shoot is likely to begin soon in another week. The team is hopeful that it would wrap up soon, owing to less restrictions in Telangana.
Meanwhile, it is reported that KCR would hold a Cabinet meeting today to decide the next step in the wake of rising cases. If again, Telangana goes into partial lockdown or implements curbs akin to Maharastra, it would be a big dampener to the Adipurush team.
