Mahesh Babu, SS Rajamouli Remain Tight-Lipped About The Film’s Plot
SSMB 29 has been making buzz online for a long time now. SS Rajamouli and Mahesh Babu have not yet revealed the title of their movie. They have also been tight-lipped about the film’s plot.
However, the RRR filmmaker was in Japan last month when he shed a little light on the film’s status and told fans, “We started my next film. We completed the writing, we are in the pre-production process…But we haven’t finished the casting yet. Only the main hero is locked, the protagonist of the film is locked. His name is Mahesh Babu, he is a Telugu actor (people hoot). Looks like many of you already know him. He is very handsome. Hopefully, we finish the film a little bit faster.”

Even though it will be set in an African jungle, Mahesh’s character will possess traits similar to Lord Hanuman, who is renowned for his valour and determination while facing challenges in the jungles.
Previously, writer Vijayendra Prasad, who penned the story of the film, also revealed that the makers will be roping in Hollywood actors for the movie.
