Production

Casting

For example, one of the key actors Vasant Balan is a Russian comedian of the Indian descent who could not get a visa to go to Ceylon. As a Hindu, the artist came under a law temporarily banning Indian citizens from Sri Lanka.

Filming

Principal photography for the project began in early March 2020 and took place in Sri Lanka. On March 12, after finishing the filming block, all the artists returned to Moscow. Six days later, Colombo Airport stopped operating all overseas flights due to the pandemic. The entire film crew did not have time to leave the island, in connection with this, the production of the film was temporarily suspended, as the team was under quarantine measures.

In the summer of 2021, it became known that the filming of the comedy in Sri Lanka had resumed. The film crew had to face a lot of unforeseen difficulties after a year and a half after a forced pause due to the pandemic.

Release

The first teaser trailer of Rolls was released on November 19, 2021.[5]
