Overview
- Multiple Indian trade outlets reported Tuesday that Pralay’s makers have held discussions with prosthetic artists who worked on Danny Boyle’s 28 Days Later, including Lisa Crawley, Adrian Getley, Barrie Gower and Kate Hill.
- Industry reports say the production plans to prioritize practical prosthetic makeup so the infected characters look textured and convincing rather than relying mainly on CGI.
- Sources indicate an initial filming block is planned in Australia to stand in for a post-apocalyptic Mumbai, with shooting expected to begin in the near term.
- Variety India and other outlets report Ranveer Singh will complete a first schedule before taking a planned paternity leave and that production is likely to pause and resume in 2027, but the makers have not confirmed this timetable.
- A single report has cited a Rs 300-crore budget for Pralay, yet that figure and the prosthetics hires remain unverified and subject to official confirmation from the producers.
