Chandrakala To Edit Aashiqui 3 Online

Director Chandrakala, who plans to complete her upcoming Kannada directorial Aashiqui 3 in a flat 20 days, will edit the film online and use live sound effects to save time.

"I plan to finish the film in 20 days. Usually post-production, especially editing takes a lot of time. To save time, I plan to edit online with available software during the shooting of the film," Chandrakala told IANS.

"Instead of composing and recording music, I plan to use live sound to also save on time. A lot of films in the west use live sound effects, but we haven't shown keen interest towards it. My film will bring forth the advantages of using it," she said.

She says Aashiqui 3 has nothing to do with Hindi film Aashiqui. "I wanted to use the title Aashiqui for my film, but since there are two Hindi films with the same title, I had to settle with Aashiqui 3. It has no connection to the Hindi films. My title is most suitable to the story," she added. Sandip Kumar and Adarsh play lead roles in the film, which is expected to go on floors soon. The hunt for the female lead is underway.
