The Team Behind the Epic
The film is a two-part project. It is produced by Namit Malhotra’s Prime Focus Studios with 8-time Oscar-winning DNEG and Yash’s Monster Mind Creations. Dharma Productions will distribute the Hindi version. With that much visual effects muscle, it’s easy to see why viewers are talking about the film’s look.
