Film Delayed Is Film Denied

A top producer has reportedly slashed further spending on an ambitious film he’s producing because the project—as promising as it may be—has gone beyond the point where it may be financially viable. The movie has been on the floor for three years now and there is already the concern it could start sounding like ‘an old film’ as it’s been extensively tracked by the industry and the media since it was announced.

With its budget ballooning considerably, the film may be fast becoming a risky proposition, thereby creating some panic in the producer’s office. So while the producer hasn’t stopped all cash flow into the still-shooting opus, he has asked the director to make some cuts. Plans to shoot the current schedule overseas were reportedly rejigged to film on local shores.

There’s still a lot of anticipation for the film among fans, thanks in no small part to the exciting casting. But it’s still far away from completion, and with a big chunk of the fee expected to go towards post production, rumor has it that the producer doesn’t want to incur any more lavish expenditure on the shoot.

Karan can't give him more money to shoot overseas again. I saw that Wake Up Sid was a 120 day shoot. YJHD shoot was also long.

120 days is 4 months... Not a long period. Budgets are set in accordance with the intial schedules all the delays and postponement add to the budget.

The problem with Brahmastra is that the film has gone over schedule by a year now and is over budget. If things had gone according to the plan they should be releasing the movie this December not shooting.

I don't know how did Kjo thought to choose somebody with so less experience to handle such a huge project. Even with Kalank he did the same mistake. What experience they have to take on such huge pressure.

If things had gone according to plan movie should have released this past August on Independence Day.  That was the initial release date when they started shooting early 2018.  
It sounds like KJo feels stuck now and everyone is in too far for them to pull out and halt it now.
