The shoot of Vidya Balan's Sherni had come to an abrupt halt in mid-March as the country went under a lockdown to curb the spread of the pandemic. Almost five months later, the Amit Masurkar-led team is steadily charting out a plan to take the movie on floors by the first week of October.
"The next location is Balaghat; we will be filming in the jungles of Madhya Pradesh. The safety of the cast and crew is key, which is why we have waited for so many months to resume work. The number of cases is reducing, but the nature of the menace is such that we need to have our guards up," explains producer Vikram Malhotra, adding that about 65 per cent of the shoot is remaining. The makers have procured the necessary permission to conduct an extensive schedule in the state. "The authorities facilitating production in Madhya Pradesh have assured me that the area is safe to shoot in. Internally, we will follow the strictest guidelines of health and safety."
