Before the plunge

In Ravi's view, it is the team work which matters. 'You will be surprised to know the kind of planning in Bollywood. Every aspect gets finalised before the plunge. When you work with a professional team, the quality can get only better. It's only one film at a time.'

Please tell me the meaning of "before the plunge" in this context.

As far as I know, "to plunge" means "to jump into" which doesn't fit in this context at all.

Hi, The expression 'tTaking the plunge' means 'definitely starting, with no possibility of changing your mind'. That seems to be the intended meaning here. Clive

Thank you Clive.
So, in this context, I think it means "in Bollywood everything gets finalised even before we start anything"?
