Behind the spectacle: The making of “Kalki”

Producers Priyanka Dutt and Swapna Dutt revealed the painstaking effort that went into creating the film’s breathtaking scenes. “We didn’t want everything to be green screen, so we built almost 30 percent of the set,” they explained. “For example, the Shambala fight with bots is just insane. It has been a great journey with Niraj Sanghai (Business Head of Prime Focus Group), who has been extremely helpful on the project. We have had great supervisors, and what Prime Focus Group, DNEG, and everybody did for us is just phenomenal.”
