After
their
announcement
in
May
this
year,
Abundantia
Entertainment
and
Crypt
TV's
maiden
joint
venture
Chhorii
has
just
gone
on
floors.
Joining
hands
with
them
is
T-series,
India's
leading
movie
studio
and
largest
music
label
that
has
recently
come
on-board
for
the
film.
Headlined
by

Bharuccha,
Chhorii
commenced
filming
today
in
the
central
Indian
state
of
Madhya
Pradesh
(MP).
This
is
a
start-to-finish
filming
schedule
and
the
unit
will
film
all
through
December
across
Madhya
Pradesh,
with
a
few
days
to
be
shot
subsequently
in
Mumbai
in
the
film's
final
schedule.
Chhorii
is
a
horror
film
that's
anchored
in
a
strong
social
message.
The
film
comprises
a
strong
ensemble,
with
actors
Mita
Vasisht,
Rajesh
Jais
and
Saurabh
Goyal,
playing
pivotal

The
film
is
directed
by

several
domestic
and
international
awards.
Chhorii
Goes
On
Floor
The
film
is
being
shot
at
live
locations
in
the
interiors
of
MP.
These
locations
include
dense
sugarcane
fields
and
rustic
villages
that
add
to
the
overall
scare
quotient
of
the
film.
In
addition,
an
elaborate
set
has
been
constructed
to
recreate
typical
village
dwellings.
The
filming
kicked-off
after
the
traditional
Indian
mauhurat
puja
which
was
attended
by
the
entire
unit.
Makers
Have
Took
Several
Safety
Precautions
On
Set
Much
like
their
Vidya
Balan
starrer
Sherni,
Abundantia
Entertainment
on
this
production
too
has
put
in
place
elaborate
health
and
safety
measures
to
manage
and
mitigate
the
risk
of
COVID-19
on
location
an
within
the
crew.
These
include
compulsory
usage
of
PPE
suits,
face
masks,
frequent
sanitisation
and
temperature
checks
as
well
as
blood
oxygen
level

Chhorii

A
Horror
Film
With
A
Social
Message
In
addition,
isolation
and
quarantine

also
been
put
in
place
on
stand
by.
A
specialist
agency
has
been
hired
to
manage
all
of
the
above
and
a
details
briefing
session
was
conducted
a
day
ahead
of
the
start
of

to
familiarise
the

with
all
these
measures.
