Most top movie stars avoid filming outdoors in Hyderabad because it is very hard to manage the massive crowds. They also worry that leaked photos and videos from the set will spread quickly on social media. Because of this, the actor Prabhas usually prefers to shoot inside private film studios or closed sets and rarely goes outdoors.
However, his upcoming movie Spirit required one day of outdoor filming. A late-night shoot was organized last night at the Vimal Theatre in Hyderabad. To prevent any news or videos from leaking, the movie team set up tight security and completely closed off the area.
Despite these strict safety measures, fans found out about the location and a huge crowd rushed to the Vimal Theatre. Some passionate fans even managed to break through the security lines just to get a quick look at Prabhas. Hundreds of fans stayed out on the streets until midnight, and some even recorded videos of Prabhas walking out of the theatre to post online.
Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga successfully filmed an important part of the movie last night, with the shoot finally wrapping up at 2:30 AM. The article notes that the making of Spirit has been moving forward steadily without any breaks. The film’s lead actress, Triptii Dimri, has also joined this current filming schedule, and the movie is set to release next year.
