Shoot and edit

It’s a no secret that filmmaker Puri Jagannadh is racing against time to finish his film with NTR by December, especially after the film’s earlier schedules went haywire due to various reasons. In this regard, the ace director, we hear, has asked his editor of many films, SR Sekkhar, to come down to Goa to edit the footage as it gets shot.

A source points out, “The production unit is leaving no stone unturned to release the flick early January. It’s a matter of reputation for producer Bandla Ganesh who is known to stick to his words when it comes to release dates. Knowing this, the unit has taken to live editing and SR Sekkhar, Puri’s trusted aide, has been flown to Goa. Footage from each day’s shoot is edited in real time currently. This will help to speed up the whole post-production process.”

Meanwhile, Puri has wrapped up canning the film’s interval action block over the weekend in Goa. Vijayan is supervising the action choreography. The first look of the film, tentatively titled ‘Temper’, is expected to be revealed on November 6. Post the completion of this movie, NTR will shift attention to Sukumar’s film; it is expected to commence from January end.
