NAVODAYA STUDIO
The illusion works on the principle that if a camera is held stationary with respect to a rotating set, then people and objects - though conformed to the
plumb and moving about naturally,
would seem to defy gravity.
Navodaya, who had awed
audience a generation ago
with the zero-gravity song in
Chotta Chetan 3D, is applying
the same technique again
here for Mohanlal’s 3D film.

Both the set and the camera are locked steady for the above shot.
The set is rotated (clockwise) in sync with the action of Barroz running down the wall (above) to the ground (below).
