The actor’s hands were numb during the shooting- the director
Director Laxman Utekar, while talking to Bollywood Hungama, said about the character of Vicky Kaushal’s Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj- Vicky was tied all night and when we removed the ropes, his hands were not getting down, both his hands were numb. Were. We had to take a break of one and a half months and remove the set during that time period. We gave him time to recover, after recovering it, rebuilt the set and then resumed shooting.
Vicky Kaushal will be seen in the role of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj in the film Chhava.
Director Laxman told stories of shooting
The director also told that he shot the torture scene on the same day Sambhaji Maharaj was tortured. He said- Integration, we were shooting the torture scene on the same day Sambhaji Maharaj was really tortured. We realized this on the very first day.
Did not talk to Akshay Khanna on set- Vicky
Vicky Kaushal was also involved in this conversation along with director Laxman. During this, he told that in the film Chhava, Akshaye Khanna is in the role of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb. The two did not talk to each other on the set to make the on-screen characters real.
Vicky told- While we were shooting for that scene, we did not wish each other to good morning or Goodbye or Hello. He was Aurangzeb and I was Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj. We used to shoot scenes directly. Meanwhile, we were not Vicky Kaushal and Akshay Khanna. We lived in our character.
Camps are in controversy since the trailer release
