Spending long periods of time underwater can be a very hard and slightly depressing thing to do. But when you are an actor, you may be required to do just that. Ask Rana Daggubati, the macho star who rose to national fame with ‘Baahubali’.
Rana is currently shooting for a period Naval film titled ‘Ghazi’, which chronicles the story of Pakistani submarine PNS Ghazi, and its misadventures off the coast of Visakhapatnam. Rana will be seen as the commander of a Kalvari class diesel submarine of the Indian Navy.
For this film’s shoot, the makers created two submarine sets in a huge tank in Hyderabad and Rana and the crew spent 20 hours a day underwater, to shoot for the movie! The film is being produced by PVP Cinema and shooting is largely over.
‘Ghazi’ is being made on the basis of a novel named ‘The Blue Fish’. The author of that book, Sankalp Reddy, is making his debut as a director with this movie.
