Here we have got a few exclusive updates about Challenging Star Darshan's Chakravarthy, directed by Chintan. The film is produced by Anaji Nagaraj and Siddhanth under Namana Combines. The team is shooting briskly for the film at different locations of Bangalore and Mysore. Currently, the team is shooting an item number in Mysore, which features Darshan and Ishitha Vyas. Ishitha Vyas has been a part of movies like Peepli Live and Gabbar Is Back, in the past.
The song, which is being shot now is "Rani Rani Rani Mai Mumbai Ka Rani" which has been composed by Magical Composer Arjun Janya. The song is set in the eighties, so the sets will match those times.
Apparently 150 members are included in the making. The movie is set in backdrop of eighties, so even this song will have retro feel to it. He has roped in the famous Bharath Brass Band, who will help him in getting the retro feel to the songs.
Once the song shoot is completed, team will move to Singapore where around 25 per cent of the movie will be shot. A few important scenes will be shot in a 12 storied cruise ship and Chakravarthy will be the first Kannada film to be shot there. The director makes it clear that not only songs are being shot in abroad but a few major sequences are being shot there as script demands it. Apart from Singapore, movie will be shot in various locations of Malaysia and Bangkok as well.
With the abroad schedule, team would have completed the major part of shoot except for the patch work. Also, if everything goes as per the schedule, team is planning to release the movie for Kannada Rajyotsava.
