Sithara Entertainments, an Indian film production company, will be on campus shooting scenes for a forthcoming Tollywood movie, which is set in part on an American college campus.

Tollywood movies are part of Indian cinema that are filmed in the Telugu language. Trinity will be providing the backdrop for the film’s campus scenes. Sithara Entertainments has received the appropriate permissions from the College administration to film on campus.

The movie, which has the working title PSR, will document the adventures; good and bad decisions; pitfalls; comedies; and family, business, and romantic triumphs of a young man and his friends.

The filmmakers invite members of the Trinity community to watch and to participate as extras in the filming. They will shoot scenes at Saturday’s football game, which is scheduled to start at 1:30 p.m. The complete schedule of filming locations appears below.
