VFX breakdown of Dabangg 2 : Bollywood News

We used 3D dynamics simulation of the concrete slab cracking

In the Dabangg Reloaded song, multiple visual effects shots were involved in augmenting the over the top jigs. In the musical jig, Salman shows off his brute strength with pushing a water hydrant into the ground breaking the concrete apart. In order to achieve this, the original plates did not have the hydrant in place; the hydrant was remade in CG which was synced with the live action plates. To bring about more credibility in the shots, we used a 3D dynamics simulation of the concrete slab cracking and particle emitter for generating dust. In the song sequence, to bring in a twist to the famous Dabangg signature belt move, the team worked on the belt movement in post.
