He adds, “I had personally worked on the script from 2004 to 2019 updating the script every year! So, naturally, I had a lot of material that could be used as reference points to write the final draft of the film and it could also be used as additional literature for us and the actors to revisit during the course of making the film. There were several books, variety of costumes that were being used as references, armor and weapons, etc. that were brought into YRF before the filming started. ” Also Read – BTS Proof: Big Hit Music announces the name of the lead single cover and ARMY gets emotional over the HYYH era [Read Tweets]
