What you don't know about Jiiva's 'Superhero' costume
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,August 01 2012]
Superhero films demand a costume that leaves a lasting impression among audiences, that convinces them that the actor is a superhero and reflects what he's doing in the film. Mysskin is helming Mugamoodi (yet to be titled in Telugu) with Jiiva which he says is an Indian film that is not like the Superman and Batman films.
Speaking about Jiiva's costume in the film he says, I travelled to four countries to finalize on Jiiva's costume and finally zeroed in on Hong Kong. A team there worked on Jiiva's costume for 5 months! The costume is made of 6 materials, in fact, one can't wear it even for ten minutes at a stretch as it will be really hot, Mysskin reveals. It was of course difficult for Jiiva to don this costume but he took all the pains for the character, he says.
Jiiva's Mugamoodi is taking shape in full throttle. The film starring Jiiva, Pooja Hegde and Narain is helmed by Mysskin and produced by UTV Motion Pictures. The film has a good dosage of stunts, martial arts, by Tony who worked with Bruce Lee in ÂEnter The Dragon'.
