Rana Daggubati, who plays a Naval officer in the tri-lingual Ghazi, which is India’s first submarine-based war film, has been shooting non-stop ever since the movie went on the floors in January.
Rana, who is a certified diver, recently shot for an important underwater war sequence for the film.
Ghazi revolves around the mysterious disappearance of Pakistan’s premiere ship, PNS Ghazi, near the eastern coast of India, en route to the Bay of Bengal, during the 1971 Indo-Pak war.
Talking about the experience Rana said, “We began shooting on January 3. Two submarines have been created in a large pool in Hyderabad. I am currently on a 12-day break and will resume shooting from March 10 for a start-to-finish schedule. I am quite good at diving but the last time I did it was around four years ago. It was shot over three days and required me to be underwater from six in the morning to two in the night.”
He added, “It was taxing but I was committed to giving it my best. The fact that it’s a first of its kind movie motivates me to keep working hard. Even for Baahubali, the entire team was quite kicked about shooting the action sequences over 120 days, a first for a movie.”
A great actor with a great motive.
LETS ALL WISH HIM GOOD LUCK .
