The film is being mounted on a mega scale and will be shot predominantly in Colombo, nearly 90% of it, with key technicians and experts who've previously worked on Narcos," said the source.
Siddharth Anand's Marflix Pictures, Mahaveer Jain Films, and Peacecraft Pictures are producing the movie. 'White' will highlight important aspects of the spiritual leader's life, including his teachings on peace and global harmony, humanitarian efforts, and conflict resolution.

The film marks the debut of Sanjay Kapoor and Maheep Kapoor's daughter Shanaya Kapoor, who stars opposite Vikrant. Directed by Santosh Singh, the movie released in theatres last week, on July 11.
A few days ago, Vikrant hit the headlines after it was reported that the actor walked out of Don 3. He was set to play the main antagonist opposite Ranveer Singh in the film. A report by Bollywood Hungama stated that the film's production team is now seeking a replacement for the role.
