Thugs of Hindostan-Destroying the Ship

Thugs of Hindostan Chapter III is now out. It is the most chilling and emotional of the lot as it takes us through the last phase of the shooting and also how they had to blow one of the ships as per the requirement of the script. The making videos previously gave us an idea the amount of hard work and detailing went into the construction of ships. It was built with so much effort, so much love and then they had to blow it up. Now, that's film making for you.


The video takes us through the emotions of the crew and actors as they had to blow up the ship. Director Vijay Krishna Acharya recounts that it was a difficult decision, but the script demanded it. The effort of nearly 1000 members had to be blown up. The incident also gives an insight how demanding is film making. We see movies on the screen, comment and criticise them at the price of a ticket, however rarely do we realise the efforts of hundreds of members, the pain that went into the making. Yes, movies might fail or pass, however nobody should question the effort of a team. It also makes us realise the reality of life. Movies do make us realise that nothing in this world is permanent. It has to go one day.

The final portions of the video is about the shoot wrap and the director declaring about the conclusion of the shoot and the crew members taking pics on the shooting spot. Its an emotional moment for any film crew. You work with the members to create a dream, you become like a family, however a day comes when you need to say good bye. You need to put an end to it. It would have been a very moving incident for the team of Thugs of Hindostan too and also the people who helped them in Malta. 

Cinema, also takes its lessons from life. We work so hard all through our life without realising that we need to leave everything earned on this Earth one day. All that will remain is the love and good will that we earned through our deeds. Cinema too captures that essence. Movies will come, movies will go, however the ones that touch our hearts stay in our hearts forever long after the curtain falls on the silver screen after the movie ends.
