Will The Makers of ‘Mahabharatha’ Learn from Rajamouli?

When Shankar was making ‘I’ he wanted to rope in Hollywood stars for the movie, Arnold Schwarzenegger in particular. But, the high remuneration and the demands of the international star made the director to retreat.

Now, the makers of ‘Mahabharatha’ which is said to be a 1000 crore project starring Malayalam superstar Mohanlal in the lead, are thinking of roping in the biggest of Academy Award winning technicians from the international arena. The bulk of the budget would go as remuneration for these international technicians and the best of talents from Indian Cinema.

If we take the example of Baahubali, the fat portion of the film’s budget went into the production of the movie and the actors and technicians didn’t demand high remunerations. That’s why the quality of the film came out in a way that we are proudly claiming it as our card to international quality movies.

Here we have two examples aka Shankar’s ‘I’ and Rajamouli’s ‘Baahubali’. It is upto the makers of ‘Mahabharatha’ to learn lessons from these two biggies. Currently, the producer of the film BR Shetty is planning to erect sets in Abu Dhabi to commence shooting next year.
