The leading damsel in South Indian cinema Shriya Saran plays the female lead in the extravagantly made ‘Mallanna’ starring Vikram. Directed by Susi Ganesan, Kalapuli S. Dhanu is producing the film on a high budget.
Based on a fantasy plot, Vikram plays the Indian superhero and Shriya’s role is yet to be out. After spending about two years in the making, the crew is now busy filming the songs in exquisite foreign locations. For rendering the songs a grandiose effect, the makers are thriving for every aspect including the main lead’s costumes.
The costume designers after lengthy discussions decided upon a costume worth 30 lakhs and jewelry worth 6 crores for Shriya which they felt will be apt (!) to bring in the desired effect. With the producers consent, the costumes were made ready and the jewel set was rented for an amount of 5 lakhs on a daily basis. The song was canned in Italy and the estimated budget for the single song itself is one and a half crores, says Reuters.
If one song costs this much, one can imagine what the total budget might be…
