Sometimes, after shooting a few portions, the hero may not be happy with his look and the team may have to reshoot those scenes.
Many such unexpected situations arise during filmmaking, and producers are usually prepared for them. In fact, producers often keep around 30 percent extra budget in mind to handle such changes.
But one big-budget film has reportedly gone far beyond even that cushion.
The film has been under production for a long time and shooting has been happening in phases. However, it reportedly faced two major breaks earlier, and now another break has added to the problem.
As a result, the budget has reportedly gone out of control and is now said to be nearly double the original estimate.
The producers are now believed to have given up hopes of making profits from the project.
Their main target is simply to complete the film as early as possible.
But that itself may not be easy. According to industry buzz, nearly 85 days of shooting are still pending.
Despite being in production for such a long time, having such a huge portion left to shoot has reportedly worried the producers.
Interestingly, there is said to be no point in blaming either the hero or the director alone, as most of the major decisions were reportedly taken collectively by the team.
The producers are also said to have realised that even if the film gets a massive release and becomes a pan-India hit, recovering the entire investment and making a profit may still be difficult.
They are therefore reportedly preparing themselves for losses and concentrating only on completing the film.
Perhaps that is also why the makers, who once spoke frequently about the project, have now become relatively silent about it.
