Karanshan: #Lyca targeting #Diwali2018 rlz. Then you can expect Trailer in Aug/Sept 2018. All piracy links are removed from youtube. Vfx works going on in full swing.
Himatej @himatej7: Sir, is it completed version of teaser or just temporary graphics version? Please reply sir.
Karanshan: Its just a director version. Vfx works not completed yet that"s why there is lot of green/blue screens used. As per news from #Lyca the movie is only rlz in 3D. Then there wil be no piracy issue.
