SRK's VFX team to work on PC's 'Mary Kom' look?

25th April 2013

Shah Rukh Khan is surely very fond of co-star and good friend Priyanka Chopra who has done wonders in the world of cinema. The actress, who has multiple projects this year, has recently completed the shoot for 'Krrish 3' and is soon going to start shooting for Mary Kom's biopic.

Apparently, it is heard that to get Mary Kom's Northeastern features, the team were planning to use prosthetics. But now, instead of that, her look will be created in the post-production stage. And interestingly, SRK's VFX studio is one of the studios where this will be done.

The makers of the film are not high on prosthetics because the film is on a boxing champion and since there will be a number of fighting sequences in the ring like punching and boxing on the face and head, they're not sure if it will last. Hence they decided, to look at another option as well.

When director Omung Kumar was contacted about the same, he said, "Nothing is confirmed yet. We're not using such heavy makeup or prosthetics that will come off during the boxing scenes. Besides, Priyanka will also be wearing a headgear. We will decide in about 15 days, as to what would give us better results."

As for SRK's company doing the VFX, Omung said, "Nothing is confirmed yet. At this point in time, we're still working out our options."
