The makers of the upcoming action film 'Zanjeer' spend an exorbitant amount for a single high-voltage sequence

Dishing out a few crores to pay your actor/actress is not new but looks like the makers of an upcoming remake of a yesteryear film didn't mind coughing up some impressive moolah for just one scene.

The producers of Apoorva Lakhia's next claim to have spent almost Rs 2 crore for an action-packed scene in the film.


Zanjeer sets

Insiders say a fight sequence featuring South actor Ram Charan apparently required two months of research and planning time. Shot with as many as seven cameras, a huge set was created in Film City with almost 2, 000 hutments and several cars in the backdrop.

Our source says, `The most difficult part about this sequence was coordinating it, as working with all the cameras in synchronisation became a humongous task. But Apoorva knew what wanted the scene to look like, which made the execution easy. `


Producer Sakett Saawhney says, `The setting was that of a Dharavi slum and we had about 120 fighters and 300 junior artistes on the sets. We imported some rigged cars from Kuala Lumpur, especially for this scene and a special team of rally drivers was called in to supervise the sequence as well. `
