Rajamouli’s Intriguing Instagram Tease
SS Rajamouli took to Instagram on Friday to share a cryptic yet exciting video, sparking fervor among fans. The video featured Mahesh Babu’s passport, accompanied by a caption that metaphorically described the actor as a “lion” ready for capture—indicating that the film’s shoot is imminent.
Mahesh Babu, not one to miss a chance to engage with his fans, responded in the comments with a line from his 2006 blockbuster Pokiri:
“Okkasaari commit ayithe naa maata nene vinanu” (Once I commit, I won’t even listen to myself).
This playful exchange between the filmmaker and the actor set social media abuzz with speculation and excitement.
Priyanka Chopra’s Cryptic Confirmation
Adding to the anticipation, Priyanka Chopra joined the conversation with a comment that read, “😂🙌 Finally.” Fans were quick to interpret this as confirmation of her involvement in SSMB29. Priyanka has been fueling rumors since her recent visit to the Chilkur Balaji Temple in Telangana, where she shared pictures captioned with, “With the blessings of Shri Balaji, a new chapter begins.”
Her connection with the project has been a hot topic, particularly after she celebrated the Oscar nomination for Anuja—an Indian film where she served as an executive producer.
A Star-Studded Epic in the Making
While the details of SSMB29 remain under wraps, the film has already drawn comparisons to the Indiana Jones franchise, thanks to its rumored action-adventure theme. Written by Rajamouli’s father and veteran screenwriter Vijayendra Prasad, the film promises to be a spectacle worthy of its creators’ reputations.
The project was officially launched in Hyderabad with a traditional pooja ceremony, and fans eagerly await further announcements about the cast and storyline.
A Film That Promises to Redefine Boundaries
With SS Rajamouli helming the project, Mahesh Babu leading the charge, and Priyanka Chopra adding her star power, SSMB29 is shaping up to be a cinematic extravaganza that will likely redefine the action-adventure genre in Indian cinema.
Stay tuned for more updates on this ambitious project as Rajamouli, Mahesh Babu, and Priyanka Chopra take us on what promises to be an unforgettable journey.
