I drew a circle, a square and a pyramid. The circle had a pathway around it and water falling from a huge 50 feet high rock, which would seep under the glass set. We used acrylic and glass; acrylic on the floor because the glass was dangerous for dance movements. This structure was magnificently created by the people of Ramoji Rao Film City in less than 30 days. I don't think anybody has done such a huge set indoors.
K V Anand had a tough time lighting the set as it was full of glass. In the end, though, he did a fantastic job.
These two were the toughest sets I created for Sivaji.
