S.S. Rajamouli’s biggest —and most expensive to date— movie RRR filming locations are our focus today. Secondly, the epic period piece was developed by DVV entertainment stars Ram Charan, Rama Rao, and Ajay Devgn. Thirdly, this movie was severely struck by chronic delays thanks to COVID-19 during production, but after many woes, it managed to come out with great fanfare and amazing reception.
The story of this movie goes like this: Two Indian patriots, Komaram Bheem and Alluri Sitarama Raju meet in the 1920s befriend each other, and choose to fight for their country. Also, the movie has had a great theatrical run after its initial release in March 2022. Now, without any further ado, let’s begin covering this topic.
RRR Filming Locations
S.S. Rajamouli’s film photography took place mainly in Hyderabad. But we are also mentioning some scenes in Holland, Ukraine and Bulgaria used for shooting some big sequences. Bear in mind this movie had a big budget —Rs 400 crores, around US$ 72 million dollars— and had a lot of technical work, thousands of technicians were called upon to work on the film. And it took over 300 days —delays included— to bring it to a conclusion
Hyderabad
Firstly, the film’s photography began back in early November 2018 in Hyderabad at an aluminum factory. Secondly, considering the magnitude of this project, the location was prime to put into working the great lenses with which it was filmed —the powerful Arrig Signature Prime lens on the Arri Alexa LF.
Hyderabad is the capital city of Andhra Pradesh in south-central India. A major metropolis -on the banks of the Musi River, it’s the country’s second-most populous city. Also, it was here that Rajamouli shot a massive sequence involving one thousand extras in February 2019. Also, at Hyderabad’s Ramoji Film City, Charan and Rama Rao shot another few scenes.
Bulgaria
The production team traveled to Bulgaria to shoot the schedule according to other parts of the film that feature crucial scenes that feature Rama Rao. During the shooting in Sofia, the crew had to pause the shooting so Rajamouli could travel to the UK for a screening of Baahubali.
Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, is a city that is rich in history and culture. Situated at the foot of Mount Vitosha, Sofia offers visitors a wealth of activities and attractions to enjoy. From its medieval churches and monasteries to its lively nightlife and shopping districts, Sofia has something for everyone.
Holland
A few scenes were shot in Holland. And to be more specific, in Amsterdam. Also, this happened during the second wave of COVID. Bear in mind that this movie was severely struck by delays. And that’s why it began filming in 2018. On another point, Amsterdam is a city in the Netherlands and the capital of the province of North Holland. The city has one of the world’s most well-known canals, lined with picturesque houses and many bridges.
Ukraine
Firstly, the song titled Naatu Naatu was filmed in Kyiv. Secondly, the last leg of the filming schedule took place in that city by early August 2021 and concluded later that month. On another point, Kyiv has always been a great economic, political and cultural center for ages in Eastern Europe. The city probably existed as a trading settlement from 1256 when it is first mentioned in medieval chronicles.
