Pawan did the same for Attarintiki Daredi, Sardaar Gabbar Singh!

After a lot of dilly dallying, the shooting of Pawan Kalyan's forthcoming film is all set to commence in a couple of days i.e likely on Aug 6. However, the film's shoot would start without Pawan. Director Dolly is going to begin the shooting in the absence of the protagonist and Pawan is expected to join the film's shoot only after few days. This isn't first time for Pawan to do join his shoots later. He did the same for Attarintiki Daredi, Sardaar Gabbar Singh. Source in the know revealed that the first schedule is very short.

"Once Pawan joins the shoot, there'd be no stopping except few small breaks between schedules. Everything has been planned well this time so that nothing would go wrong," added the source. Apparently, Pawan, Sharrath and Dolly have done extensive work on the pre-production and the film is planned such that there won't be any delay and shoot would go on continuously till the film is finished.

The plan is to wrap-up the film's shoot by December end and the release date would decided then depending on the other releases. It's learnt that Pawan may not arrive for Sankranthi as there's already severe jostle for theatres from Chiru's 150 and Balakrishna's Gautamiputra Satakarni.

Of late, it has become a trend of sorts to start the shoot film without lead actor. Recently, Mahesh Babu-AR Murugadoss film too gone to floors and Mahesh joined only later. This is apparently to give some time for directors to get into the mood, rhythm of film.
