Bhansali's epic vision has just gone up by
many notches. The filmmaker and his co-
producers Viacom 18 have decided to
convert Bhansali's latest work Padmavati
into the 3D format.
Says a source close to the development, "We
know we're racing against time as the
release is just a little more than a month
away. But when we saw what Sanjay Leela
Bhansali has achieved on the screen this
time we immediately decided to take the
experience to another level.
As I write this, the best technicians from
Hollywood are being negotiated with, to fly
down to Mumbai and make the city their
home for the next one month as Padmavati
goes digital
So what prompted the decision to suddenly
to convert?
Informs a source, "Two things. Firstly the
epic design of the film warrants another
dimension of viewing. Bhansali's 2002 epic
Devdas has also been converted into 3D,
though it hasn't been released as yet. When
Bhansali saw what a dazzling achievement
Devdas had turned into in 3D he resolved to
give Padmavati the same design. Secondly
Shankar's 2:0 the Robot sequel has also
been shot in 3D. Padmavati when it opens
on December 1 hopes to reap a larger profit
than 2:0 in January 2018.
