Development

Sampath Nandi was supposed to direct Pawan Kalyan in the sequel of Gabbar Singh (2012). The film was delayed for years and later Sampath chose to direct Ravi Teja after walking out of that project.[1] Ravi Teja confirmed the news and said that he would start working on this film after completing Kick 2 (2015).[2] The film's title was reported as Bengal Tiger in mid November 2014.[3] The same was confirmed later on 15 November 2014 and K.K. Radha Mohan announced that he would produce this film on Sri Satya Sai Arts banner.[4] At the same time, Sampath Nandi confirmed that the script work is in its final stages.[5]

Nandi states that he had previously written the script for the film with Ravi Teja in mind as the lead but had wanted to prove his abilities before working together.[6] Soundararajan was selected as the cinematographer who stated that the film is a mass action film.[7] The film was officially launched on 30 January 2015 at Ramanaidu Studios.[8]

Casting

Tamannaah (left) and Rashi Khanna (right) were signed in as the female leads.

While announcing his collaboration with Ravi Teja, Sampath Nandi said that this film would feature two female leads while the rest of the cast crew were being finalized.[2] Tamannaah, who worked with Sampath Nandi in Racha, was signed as one of the female leads.[9] Ravi Teja was reportedly keen on working with her.[6] Rashi Khanna was approached to play the second female lead in mid December 2014.[10] She later confirmed her inclusion adding that she would play a parallel female lead along with Tamannaah in the film.[11]

Boman Irani was cast for a crucial supporting role.[12] Rao Ramesh, Posani Krishna Murali and Sayaji Shinde were cast for key supporting roles.[13] Nassar was signed in on for a key supporting role as well.[6] Ramaprabha, Tanikella Bharani, Nagineedu and Prabhu joined the film's cast in its first schedule.[14] Harshvardhan Rane made a cameo appearance in the film as Khanna's lover and stated that there is a love triangle between him, Ravi Teja and Khanna.[15]

Khanna and Rao Ramesh were reported to play in the characters of common people in a society while Brahmanandam was reported to play an important role.[16] Aksha Pardasany was signed in on to make a cameo appearance in the film.[17] She told IANS that all her scenes in the film would be with Ravi Teja.[18] It was reported that Rashi Khanna will be seen in a new look.[19]

Filming

The principal photography began on 4 March 2015 at Ramoji Film City where scenes focusing Irani, Khanna, Shinde and others were shot until 14 March 2015.[20] On its completion, the next schedule began from 10 April 2015 and Ravi Teja joined the film's sets along with Tamannaah and other supporting cast. The schedule was announced to be shot in Ramoji Film City, Chilkur and other areas around Hyderabad until 6 May 2015.[21]

Harshvardhan Rane joined the film's sets on 13 April 2015.[15] Filming continued in Shamshabad from 22 April 2015,[22] after which scenes on Ravi Teja, Tamannaah and Khanna were shot in a railway station backdrop at Ramoji Film City.[23] The third schedule began on 13 May 2015 at Ramoji Film City where Brahmanandam and Ravi Teja joined the film's sets.[24] Along with few scenes featuring both of them, a couple of songs were planned to be shot in the schedule.[25]

Filming of a song featuring Ravi Teja, Tamannaah and Khanna commenced on 23 May 2015.[26] On its completion, 40% of the principal photography was wrapped up. The next schedule was planed from 6 June 2015 in Hyderabad to film few action sequences before shifting to Pollachi for filming few portions.[27]

Release

The film was announced to release in October 2015.[28] Later the makers announced the film's worldwide release date as 18 September 2015 coinciding with Ganesh Chaturthi.[29] The Hindi dubbing rights were sold for ₹26 million to a Mumbai-based distributor which is the highest ever amount for a Ravi Teja's film. A limited release was planned in Maharashtra and the distributors made an agreement with a leading Hindi film channel to screen it on the national network after 60 days of the release of the original Telugu version.[30]
