Makers of Saakshyam have started promotions recently and the film’s hero Bellamkonda Srinivas is busy giving interviews to various media houses. Srinivas took the complete burden since the film’s heroine Pooja Hegde is busy shooting for other projects. She is presently doing Housefull 4 and is also part of Mahesh Babu’s 25th film.
Srinivas during recent media interaction went overboard and stated, “I think we have made Saakshyam as a mini Baahubali.” Srinivas’s intentions are to say that, graphics in his film will be on par with Baahubali, though CGI shots will be far less in Saakshyam.
Huge budget was spent on CGI work to represent five elements of nature aka the Earth, the wind, the fire, the sky and the water. They shot in different locations for each element and for the water element for the climax episode is shot in Rajahmundry. “The VFX in climax will stun the audience for sure,” he said.
Seems like, Bellamkonda Srinivas is pretty confident about his film doing wonders at box office. But, analysts opine that, he did a mistake by comparing is film with the mammoth of Telugu cinema that is Baahubali.
Even star heroes won’t dare to compare their films with classics. But, Srinivas in overjoy made such statement for which he is criticized in social media.
Meanwhile, Saakshyam directed by Sriwass is due for release on July 27th.
