In Krrish 3 it was important to create a consistent look and feel to the story overall. Krrish 3 provided a great opportunity for us to showcase the diverse skills within the businesses and further reinforced our position as a fully integrated high-end facility.”
The color timing helped define locations and enhance and ensure the mood of scenes worked and that the entire movie flowed. On top of color timing, were added, a lot of little nuances fine-tuning on the image such as enhancing the mutant’s traits like the color of the tongue and the eye’s iris details. But most of the detailing time was utilised to ensure the realistic integration of the VFX. Hrithik and Rakesh took a very active role in the DI process ensuring their high vision was reached.
Commenting on the same, Krrish 3 producer and director Rakesh Roshan said: “I am thrilled and enthusiastic about Krrish 3. This project has all the insightful and risqué visuals we have come to expect from the franchise. I was very confident that Reliance MediaWorks was the “Go to” place for DI and colour grading.

Add to it the brand value of the Krrish franchise makes working on the project a fruitful experience.
