'Sholay' characters to come alive where the film was shot!

'Sholay'

A 3D virtual reality village is being created on the rocky terrain of Karnataka's Ramanagaram district where Ramesh Sippy shot his 1975 blockbuster Sholay.

Attempts are on to recreate the dacoit-gangland setting and bring alive the film's characters through 3D, VR and sound effects.

Memorable locations, including Dharmendra's 'suicide threat' scene atop a water tank, Hema Malini aka Basanti's dance rock and Sanjeev 'Thakur' Kumar's handcuff scene will be among the permanent exhibits. Good idea!
