Exploring The Creation Of 'Maharaj': Siddharth P Malhotra's Cinematic Craft
Filmmaker Siddharth P Malhotra recently provided a glimpse into the making of his film 'Maharaj'. The behind-the-scenes video revealed that over 700 workers were involved in constructing the elaborate sets. These sets were built on a vast 9-acre land and took 10 months to complete.
Sharing his thoughts on social media, Malhotra wrote, "Here's the making of the wonderful set designed by @amitray649 and @subratachskraborty when creating the period I had asked Adi I wanted to shoot in real locations to feel and smell the time on screen but thx to Adi and his vision for me to land a big cinematic experience film in #maharaj he empowered me with these genius production designers who designed sets which were magnificent and detailed in every way from props to carvings to finish! Thank you Amit and Subbu sir and am so glad with #rajivravibrilliance we could do justice to your vision to empower my vision come to life ❤️???? enjoy the unit !!!!"
'Maharaj' has received widespread acclaim from both critics and audiences. It not only topped India's top 10 charts but also secured the number one spot in 22 other countries. This success highlights the film's broad appeal and strong reception across various regions.
Malhotra expressed his gratitude towards Aditya Chopra and the YRF team for their support. He shared, "Once again, Adi allowed me to bring to life a story that needed to be told. I am overwhelmed by the love Maharaj is receiving. A simple 'thank you' seems inadequate for the immense gratitude I have towards you, Adi, and the entire YRF team."
The director also praised Junaid Khan, who made his acting debut with 'Maharaj'. Malhotra remarked, "Junaid truly embodies the saying, 'A fruit doesn't fall far from the tree.' His work ethic and acting prowess clearly reflect the influence of his father [Aamir Khan]." This praise underscores Junaid's promising start in the film industry.
