The opening scene with 'MARINA' in the background is shot at the 'Darling Harbour', Sydney. Darling Harbour is a part of the Sydney Harbour which is open to public and serves as an entertainment centre with hotels, restaurants and shopping centres. Marina is a docking point of boats and is located at the Pyrmont Bridge(about which we saw in the previous post) side of Darling Harbour.
The more spectacular scenes of Prabhas driving a Harley Davidson and later a Mercedes Benz at the by the sea bridge was shot at the 'Sea Cliff Bridge' in Australia.
The Sea Cliff Bridge is a balanced cantilever bridge located in the northern Illawarra region of New South Wales, Australia which was opened in December 2005. The Sea Cliff Bridge was named by 11 Year old schoolgirl following a naming competition opened to local primary school students and is one of only seven off-shore parallel to coast bridges in the world.
The above shots from Google Maps are the exact places of the screenshots i have put above. Google Maps have the Virtual Travel option for the Sea Cliff Bridge. (if you are not sure how to do this, on your google homepage click on 'Maps' in the top left corner, type in 'Sea Cliff Bridge' in the search box. You'll now see the place in Map or Satellite view. Zoom in closer till you can see the roads. See the 'Golden boy icon' in the top left? Click and drag the icon and drop him on the road (a blue line will appear wherever the virtual tour option is available). Once in the Virtual travel mode you can move forward by clicking on the arrows or the small circles that appear while you move your mouse. Try it, you'll definitely enjoy the ride.)
SEA CLIFF BRIDGE ON WIKIPEDIA
The Scenes at the Light House have been shot at the Kiama Light House at Kiama.
Kiama is another tourist point located at about 120 kms from Sydney a little further down the Sea Cliff Bridge on the eastern coast of Australia. Virtual Travel option is also available in Google Maps but seems like it was shot during a cloudy weather.
The above scene was shot at the General Post Office building, Sydney. in 1996, the building was sold to private owners. It was subsequently refurbished and now houses shops, restaurants and hotel rooms.
The above scene was shot at the small square at the Hunter Street in Sydney. Was able to locate it on Google Maps. I have given two views of the place - one from the park and other from the road side. You can see the wooden bench in these two screenshots from Google Maps
A few scenes have been canned on a cruise at the Tasman Sea near the Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
I saw an interesting shot in the song. The screenshot i have given below appears for just for a split second and normally not visible during the song. If this was graphics why was it placed at all when you cannot see it?
