With shooting restrictions imposed in Maharashtra due to the raging pandemic, several shows have moved their base to places like Hyderabad, Silvassa, Agra among others.
The makers of Imlie also moved their base to Hyderabad a few weeks ago after the shooting was banned in Maharashtra. Now the new challenge was to shoot with a limited crew. Recently director Atif Khan shared with a series of tweets how several channel members doubled up as extras in the show during a recent action sequence.
Even the director had to play a cameo for the action sequence. The sequence shows Aditya looking for Imlie at a lodge where he gets attacked by Satyakam’s goons. With the tweets Atif shared, who played which role in this episode.
While the supervising producer played a visitor at the lodge, the chief editor essayed the role of one of Satyakam’s goons. Director Atif essayed the part of holding Aditya at gunpoint. He proudly called it team effort.
