Recently, SS Rajamouli launched the A&M Motion Capture facility at Akkineni Studios in Hyderabad. At this state-of-the-art facility, the master storyteller shot a key sequence for his upcoming film Varanasi. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter India, CV Rao, CTO of Annapurna Studios, revealed some interesting details about the sequence.
“The sequence in the film will be almost 25 minutes long. I can’t tell you much, but it’s a thrilling scene. Since we have released the BTS of Varanasi, you now know that it was captured on a motion-capture stage. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been able to figure it out,” said CV Rao.
Producer Shobu Yarlagadda, who also has a stake in the facility, added, “We were working to the Varanasi team’s timelines. Ultimately, everything came through in the end. The biggest thing was that Rajamouli was happy with it.”
