In 2022, the exciting news of Mahesh Babu and SS Rajamouli joining forces for an upcoming movie, tentatively named SSMB 29, generated immense anticipation among the audience. Fans have been eagerly waiting for this collaboration, hailed as the next big thing in Indian cinema. As we await more updates around the film, a recent report has cited Vijayendra Prasad’s words of Hollywood actors being a part of the ‘pan-world’ film.
The writer of the film Vijayendra Prasad, as per PinkVilla has revealed in his latest interview that the makers will be roping in Hollywood actors for an action-adventure set in Africa. If the news is true, it doesn’t come as a surprise, especially after witnessing SS Rajamouli’s RRR storm in Hollywood, that left prominent names like Makoto Shinkai, Steven Spielberg, James Cameron smitten by his craft. Earlier, there were reports doing the rounds that Chris Hemsworth will feature as a cameo in Mahesh Babu’s film along with a slew of several other Hollywood actors. Additionally, SS Rajamouli’s tie-up with Hollywood talent agency CAA (Creative Artists Agency) also indicates such possibilities. However, an official confirmation is yet to be made by the makers.
According to reports, Mahesh Babu’s character in SS Rajamouli’s upcoming film is inspired by Lord Hanuman. Rajamouli is known for drawing inspiration from Indian epics like Ramayana and Mahabharata, and this film will be no exception. Despite being set in an African jungle adventure, Mahesh Babu’s character will possess traits similar to Lord Hanuman, who is renowned for his valour and determination while facing challenges in the jungles. The character’s journey is expected to mirror the trajectory of Ramayana, albeit with Rajamouli’s unique touch added to it. Fans can look forward to witnessing this exciting fusion of Indian mythology and an African jungle setting in the movie.
Screenwriter KV Vijayendra Prasad, the film is set to be even grander than RRR. The pre-production work is already underway for this pan-Indian project, and Mahesh Babu will be dedicating three months to training in the workshop for his role. Director SS Rajamouli has ambitious plans for the movie, describing it as a globe-trotting adventure filled with action, thrills, and drama. To ensure the best possible outcome, he aims to collaborate with top-notch technicians from both the Indian film industry and Hollywood, given the film’s pan-world appeal.
While the cast and crew are yet to be officially announced, there are reports suggesting that Deepika Padukone is being considered for the female lead role. With such high-profile talent and the promise of a grand-scale production, SSMB 29 is certainly shaping up to be an eagerly anticipated cinematic experience.
