I know dupes are used for challenging action set pieces, especially for older stars but it’s absolutely wild to see even for basic dance steps and movement that a face has been superimposed on a body double!
I want to thank Mistyman Studios for their exceptional VFX work on our announcement video, overseen by creative director Alex Pi. And Julia’s continuous monitoring to deliver the best. Your expertise brought the shots to life.
Many thanks also to the fantastic teams at Viskefi, Phantom FX and Gimpville for their outstanding work on their shots and for their continued support right up to the very last minute! #Varanasi

Probably the only director who spoke less about how handsome @urstrulyMahesh is, and more about his depth and intensity as an actor! 🔥
That's CINEMA for us! 🎞🙌🏻
