바카라�Sam Bahadur바카라� My Most Meticulously Detailed Work, Says Vicky Kaushal In BTS Clip

In the clip, the actor revealed that the film was perhaps his most meticulously shot film to date, as he never had to go through so many look-tests just to see whether the face, uniform, and medals have been accurately portrayed.

Shot with actual military personnel, the 바카라�Sardar Udham바카라� actor was seen going out of an actual cantonment in Punjab before revealing that the idea for the film had been in the making since 2019.

바카라�Meghna and I discussed 바카라�Sam Bahadur바카라� first in 2019 where we usually used to meet for 5-6 hours simply discussing the whole project, so I think that is what kickstarted the whole thing,바카라� the actor said.

Citing the movie바카라�s immense prep work for historical authenticity, he said: 바카라�This movie was shot with much meticulous attention to detail because Meghna was very particular about each and every frame. She wanted to get every medal right. I don바카라�t think I바카라�ve had to go through so many look-tests just to get the appearance right. The prep work has been immense and we are glad at the way it turned out.바카라�

Explaining the necessity of such massive and meticulously detailed work on just appearances alone, director Meghna Gulzar said: 바카라�I think the level of detailing for prep work required that much more because of the nature of the film. One it is the Indian Army, two it is Sam Manekshaw.바카라�

Actress Sanya Malhotra who essays the role of the legendary Field Marshal바카라�s wife Silloo Manekshaw said: 바카라�On my first day of the set, when I saw him (Vicky) for the first time, I was completely blown away. I could not see Vicky anywhere, there was only him and Sam (Manekshaw).바카라�

The team바카라�s military consultant Colonel Manish Sarin talking about the impressive prep work said: 바카라�During the course of the whole film, I found out that he (Vicky) had really done his homework so well, he바카라�s studied the mannerisms, the way of talking, of conducting himself in a military fashion. More importantly, I don바카라�t think anyone could have done more justice to the character than Vicky.바카라�

Vicky detailed that this was the longest filming schedule he바카라�s had to go through. 바카라�The way this would happen is that we바카라�d be on-set for 15-20 days. There would usually be a 20 minute break during which I had to undergo a lot of preparation in order to learn certain skill sets. These included primarily high jump, and boxing,바카라� the actor said.

Showing the massive effort it took to do justice to the whole military routine, the actor said: 바카라�High jump today has evolved as a sport a lot, but back then it was a scissor jump. It may look more simple and basic, but it really is not.바카라�

This showed him jumping over hoops several times in order to get the perfect jump, as well as exercising beforehand to develop leg strength for the jump.

Taking boxing training from actual soldiers, as well as learning how to carry himself in proper military manner, the 바카라�Uri바카라� actor was actually injured during the boxing sessions though this did not make him give up.

Meghna in her closing remarks said: 바카라�Vicky has given away his soul, every molecule of himself for this role. I think he stopped being Vicky Kaushal the day he stepped on the set. And I am talking more than just nailing the uniform, moustache, or lenses. On that day, I think he really just became Sam Manekshaw.바카라�

The biopic is based on Sam Manekshaw, detailing his upbringing, his early days as a young officer after graduating from the Indian Military Academy during the British times to his fights in World War 2, post-Independence role in the first India-Pakistan war, his role in 1962 Indo-Sino war, the 1965 India-Pakistan war, the 1967 India-China skirmish, and the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation war also called the third India-Pakistan war.
