Vihaan gets on a racing track for Panchatantra

Vihaan Gowda, the hero of Panchatantra, a film helmed by Yogaraj Bhat, is gearing up for the racing track, a key element in the upcoming film. The team is currently zeroing in on a location, which is likely to be either Ramanagara or  Pandavapura, and will begin shooting tomorrow for the climax.  

“The shoot is expected to be complete by June 1,” says a member of the film’s crew. The makers have roped in Jolly Bastian, a well-known stunt man of south India, who is an expert in choreographing racing sequences.

The team has also associated with racer Monish, who will be overlooking the sequences. “A professional rallyist, Monish has been part of racing-related events, and will guide the team on the rules, regulations and formalities that are required for the racing sequence. He will also be participating in the shoot,” the source says.  

Only two songs will be left to shoot after that, which we are told are slotted for June. Along with Vihaan in the lead, the film features an ensemble cast including Sonal Monteiro and Akshara Gowda playing the lead and key roles, respectively.

The story that deals with the clash between the younger and older generations, also has Rangayana Raghu and Simran as part of the cast. The music for the film is by V Harikrishna and cinematography is by Sugnaan.
