SSMB29, which features Mahesh Babu in the lead and is directed by S.S. Rajamouli recently created headlines after a video was leaked during its filming in Koraput, Odisha.

The video was taken by an anonymous person from inside a car and it shows the superstar walking towards an individual sitting in a wheelchair. While the video has already gone viral, the makers have now taken additional steps to ensure that such incidents are not repeated.
The shoot continues in Odisha and the producers have tripled the security arrangements at the place. Furthermore, the makers have ensured to take legal action against the individual who leaked the video from the set.

The makers have maintained complete secrecy and have not revealed much. The only thing that is known for now is that SSMB29 will be a jungle adventure with a budget of almost Rs. 1,000 crores. It also features Priyanka Chopra as the female lead.
It can be considered bad luck since the leak happened despite that the producers made the cast and crew sign an NDA before the film’s shooting started.

Looking at the current situation, maybe it will be a better choice for the makers to shift the filming to an indoor location.
But it will also work as a negative element in the film since outdoor locations will bring more authenticity and a different kind of experience while watching the film on the big screen.
The leaks did not happen when the shoot started in Hyderabad at a factory.
Shooting in outdoor locations will lead to the possibility of more leaks and for now, triple security or maybe a stricter step than that will help the makers to avoid such issues before the film’s release.
SSMB29 is a big film and any kind of leaks will only bring obstacles in the way of the film’s success. Only time will tell if the step of triple security has turned out to be helpful for the producers.
