As Kangana Ranaut shoots Thalaivi in South, makers evaluate ways to film final leg that requires 300-plus extras, at odds with guidelines.

For the final stint that is slated to roll in mid-November in Hyderabad, the makers will have a tough task on their hands. On the cards is the shoot of the climax that sees Ranaut's Jayalalithaa step out of the legislative assembly as a crowd awaits her. "The makers wished to film the sequence on a large scale with about 350 people. Since the guidelines suggested that only 33 per cent of the original crew strength can be present on a set, the director had held off the filming of this sequence until it was safe to shoot with a crowd. But now, with the biopic almost complete, the team is currently trying to figure out a way to shoot the climax," adds the source.

Confirming the development, producer Shailesh R Singh says, "We have barely 15 days of shoot left in the final schedule. We are evaluating how we will shoot the crowd sequence; we are hoping the situation will improve by November."
