In the current scenario, while several filmmakers are keen to resume shooting, it’s still uncertain as to when a full-fledged movie shoot will begin. Also, as per reports, most filmmakers are thinking of roping in VFX and allied technology to shoot crowd scenes, create outdoor effects, shoot scenes involving several people in a single frame and romantic scenes. 

Talking about the same, the Golmaal actor shared that using VFX kills the beauty of realism, especially in a film like Golmaal which has an ensemble star-cast. He reportedly said that this is a time when technology will help all make the films that they want to make. He said that it's true when filmmakers try to create a crowd using VFX, they lose out on the beauty of realism, which is sad. Adding, further he said that for romantic scenes, the lead actors need that personal touch. Arshad concluded the interview by mentioning that things will get well with the passing time. He also reportedly exclaimed that with a strong immune system, one can eventually work with multiple people in a frame because if the co-actor is healthy, then he said others around him will also be hail and hearty.
