Shooting Spot - Chakram

Remember the brief flashback scene in Chakram, where Prabhas and Asin are shown as doctors working abroad? These scenes have been shot at Bucharest, the Capital city of Romania. Take a look at these screenshots.



The huge building in the first screenshot is the Palace of the Parliament (Romanian: Palatul Parlamentului) in Bucharest, Romania. The Palace of the Parliament is the second largest building in the world, after the Pentagon. The place is so massive, that it can be seen from the moon.Bucharest residents still refer to it as Casa Poporului, the House of the People. Today it houses both chambers of the Romanian Parliament.

It was built by communist dictator Ceausescu . The construction began in 1983 and constructing the Palace and Centrul Civic required demolishing much of Bucharest's historic district, including 19 Orthodox Christian churches, six Jewish synagogues, three Protestant churches (plus eight relocated churches), and 30,000 residences. (More about this building can be found in the references given at the end.)

The building in the second screenshot is the 'Piaţa Constituţiei' (Romanian for "Constitution Square"), also known as Palace Square, is one of the largest squares in the downtown of Bucharest, Romania. The square is standing face-to-face with the Palace of the Parliament.

You can have a 360 degree view of the Palatul Parlamentului and Piaţa Constituţiei in panoramic view from the link given below. Watch it in fullscreen mode to have a good look.

The modern glass building which is shown as the hospital where Prabhas and Asin work is actually the Bucharest Financial Plaza, the second tallest office building in Bucharest. The old building in the second screenshot is the CEC Bank Palace.
