SSMB29: Mahesh's Look is Different! Jakkanna Has Really Pulled Off Something Great!

There's no need to specify just how high the expectations soar when it comes to a film by SS Rajamouli. With superstar Mahesh Babu teaming up with Jakkanna for this film, the entire nation's eyes are fixed on this project. Everyone is eagerly awaiting the day this exciting combo hits the sets. Meanwhile, Mahesh is undergoing a striking makeover for the film. Recently, when Mahesh and his wife met Telangana's CM Revanth Reddy, his look went viral. Pictures of Mahesh sporting long hair and a beard have been going viral on the internet, fueling speculation that this might be his look in SSMB29. However, there seems to be a big twist here. Let's find out what it is. Is Mahesh's Look the Real Deal? Fans are going crazy over Mahesh's latest look, praising him as looking like a Hollywood hero. Comments indicate that this look is finalized for 'SSMB29'. Yet, the latest buzz suggests that this is indeed the look Mahesh will sport in the film. After growing his beard and hair, Rajamouli is planning to bring in a hair stylist from abroad to craft four to five looks for Mahesh, one of which will be finalized. So, Mahesh's fans who thought the current look was final might be in for a surprise. They believe Jakkanna has really pulled a fast one on them. Thus, Mahesh Has Freedom! Rajamouli always pays special attention to the looks of his heroes in films, making sure they don’t leak before the film's release. He sets conditions for his heroes to ensure their looks are not revealed during the shooting. This was followed by Prabhas, Ram Charan, and Tarak during the shoots of 'Baahubali' and 'RRR'. However, Mahesh has been freely posing for cameras at various events, revealing his makeover in one form or another. But this freedom might be because this look isn’t the final one. Once the real look is finalized, there’s a chance Mahesh will be more cautious about not being exposed. Rajamouli’s Master Plan! For the upcoming film 'SSMB29' starring Mahesh Babu, director Rajamouli has decided to proceed with a new strategy. Typically, Rajamouli's movies involve significant VFX work, requiring simultaneous progress with the shooting. To address this, he has planned to shoot VFX-heavy scenes first and has already begun pre-production works. These scenes will be handed over to VFX companies in advance, and Rajamouli will then focus on the remaining shooting. This approach will allow both VFX work and shooting to be completed concurrently, speeding up the film's completion, which is making the fans extremely happy. Answering the Critics SS Rajamouli holds a top spot among India’s most esteemed directors. However, he has been critiqued lately for taking three to four years to release a film. Throughout his 23-year career, he has only released 12 films. His decision regarding VFX work is seen as a strategic move by the film industry. This could potentially allow for the film to be released within a couple of years. Estimates suggest that 'SSMB 29' could hit the screens by the end of 2026, even if it starts rolling next year.

Nassar has previously played a similar role in Rajamouli's epic films 'Baahubali' and 'RRR', where he coached stars like Prabhas, Jr. NTR, and Ram Charan in regional dialects.

RGV Comments On SSMB29

The entire nation is eagerly anticipating the upcoming film starring the dynamic duo of director SS Rajamouli and actor Mahesh Babu. Both fans of Mahesh Babu and general movie enthusiasts, as well as celebrities, are highly excited about this project. However, director Ram Gopal Varma, who is known for stirring controversies, has already made some intriguing comments about 'SSMB29'. His high praise for the film prior to its making has generated significant buzz online. Let's explore what Varma had to say. 'Baap of All' Director Ram Gopal Varma, who has become synonymous with controversies, recently made headlines again during an interview. He lavished praise on the upcoming Mahesh-Rajamouli film, proclaiming 'SSMB29' as the 'Baap of All'. Varma highlighted that Rajamouli has put significant effort into this film following 'RRR'. He confidently stated that the film would exceed all expectations. His comments have gone viral on social media, extensively shared by Mahesh’s fans. https://twitter.com/i/status/1815971837337297111 Luxury Life Beyond Rajamouli: RGV Varma also praised director Rajamouli, mentioning that even Bollywood films couldn’t match the collections of 'Baahubali'. He stated, “Rajamouli's success isn’t just about Telugu cinema; it's all about him. Perhaps he would have made the same impact no matter where he was born. The action sequences in 'RRR' are incredibly unique. It's because of 'RRR' that many countries learned about Indian cinema. No matter how big a hit his films are, Rajamouli doesn’t boast. I lead a more luxurious life than Rajamouli.” These comments by RGV have also trended on social media. Regarding Hardik Pandya’s Divorce... Recently, the news about Hardik Pandya and Natasha Stankovic's divorce was announced. Varma responded in his unique style, stating, "If marriages are decided in hell, divorces are decided in heaven. It’s better to hire a nurse for care than to marry. Divorce cases are increasingly becoming common. It’s foolish for poor people to spend money on this. If love blinds you, marriage will surely open your eyes." These posts too went viral on social media. https://twitter.com/RGVzoomin/status/1814612480649535830 https://twitter.com/RGVzoomin/status/1814614163593044241 https://twitter.com/RGVzoomin/status/1814615965612863618 In September On the Sets! Pre-production work for 'SSMB29' is near to completion, and the remaining tasks are expected to be finished soon, with plans to start shooting in September. Recently, there have been rumors online that Mahesh will play dual roles in the film, one of which includes negative shades. Mahesh has never played a double role or a character with negative shades in any of his previous 28 films, making this update particularly intriguing to his fans. The truth of these rumors needs to be confirmed by Rajamouli’s team.

SS Rajamouli's Next Epic with Mahesh Babu: A Grand Adventure Awaits with 'SSMB29'

After achieving a massive blockbuster with 'RRR', director SS Rajamouli has captured everyone's attention by announcing his next film with superstar Mahesh Babu. The entire film industry is eagerly awaiting the start of this exciting combination. Currently, Rajamouli is busy with the pre-production work of the film. However, it is learned that he will be working differently for 'SSMB29' compared to his previous films. Let’s find out what decision Rajamouli has taken this time. Rajamouli’s Master Plan! For the upcoming 'SSMB29' starring Mahesh Babu, director Rajamouli has decided to proceed with a new strategy. Generally, Rajamouli’s movies have extensive scope for VFX, which means equal importance must be given to shooting and graphics work. To address this, the director has devised a master plan. He plans to shoot the VFX-related scenes in advance. Accordingly, pre-production work is underway to ensure these scenes are ready to be handed over to the VFX teams early. This strategy allows for simultaneous completion of VFX work and shooting, potentially speeding up the entire filmmaking process and thrilling the fans. Addressing the Criticisms SS Rajamouli, one of the most esteemed directors in the country, has faced recent criticism for the lengthy durations it takes to release his films, often three to four years. To counter this, it's known that Rajamouli has made strategic decisions regarding VFX work. With such planning, it is expected that the film could be released within one or two years. It is anticipated that 'SSMB 29', even if it starts filming next year, could be released by the end of 2026. Following the Paths of 'RRR' and 'Baahubali' Like his period dramas 'Baahubali' and 'RRR', Rajamouli is reportedly preparing a similar epic narrative for Mahesh Babu. There is strong buzz that this movie will be set in the 18th century and is an ambitious attempt to recreate a story from 225 years ago. Rajamouli plans to authentically portray the tribal looks of hundreds of years ago for the cast. Producer KL Narayana is expected to fund this grand venture with a budget of Rs. 1000 crores, and Hollywood technicians are being hired to meet the production's high standards. Inspiration for the Story The Mahesh Babu-Rajamouli film is rumored to be an adventure thriller set against an African backdrop. In a recent interview, Rajamouli's father and renowned writer Vijayendra Prasad mentioned that they both are huge fans of South African novelist Wilbur Smith, which inspired him to base the screenplay on Smith's books. However, he assures that the screenplay will bear Rajamouli's signature style. MM Keeravani is set to compose the music for the film.

Mahesh Babu Voice To Mufasa: Mahesh's Roar to Be Heard in Hollywood's 'Mufasa'..!

Among the top Telugu heroes with a massive fan following, Superstar Mahesh Babu stands out. With his next project lined up with the visionary director Rajamouli, expectations for ‘SSMB29’ are already sky-high. However, considering the scale of a film with Rajamouli, it’s well known that such a project takes considerable time. This has left fans disappointed, knowing they won’t see Mahesh on screen soon. Amidst this, Mahesh Babu surprised his fans with an exciting announcement. He has lent his voice to the Telugu version of a Hollywood movie, leaving everyone in awe. Let's take a look at the details. Mahesh Dubs for the Lion One of the prestigious projects from the renowned Hollywood production house Disney is 'Mufasa: The Lion King.' Still in the filming stage, the makers are planning a grand release in India. As part of this, they decided to have star actors from various industries dub for the character of Mufasa, the lion. Recently, Disney made an interesting revelation, announcing that Superstar Mahesh Babu has dubbed for the Telugu version of the character Mufasa. The Telugu trailer is set to be released on the 26th of this month at 11:07 AM. With this news, both Mahesh’s fans and cinema lovers are eagerly awaiting the trailer. https://twitter.com/taran_adarsh/status/1826142693149327810 What Did Mahesh Say About Dubbing? Superstar Mahesh Babu shared his thoughts on dubbing for the main lead in the animated film 'Mufasa: The Lion King.' He said, "I have immense respect for Disney. Mufasa, as both a father guiding his son and a great king of the jungle, captivates everyone. Working with Disney is something very special to me personally. I will enjoy this with my kids. I’m looking forward to watching 'Mufasa: The Lion King' on the big screen with my family and fans on December 20th in Telugu." The film features performances by Aaron Stone, Kelvin Harrison Jr., among others. The movie is set for a worldwide release as a Christmas gift. Who Dubbed in Hindi? The Hindi version of 'Mufasa: The Lion King' trailer was recently released. In this version, the young Mufasa’s voice was provided by Bollywood's Badshah Shah Rukh Khan’s son, Abram. Interestingly, the voice for Mufasa (in adulthood) is given by Shah Rukh Khan himself, while the voice for Simba was provided by his elder son Aryan Khan. Shah Rukh recently expressed his joy in working on a movie alongside his children. He mentioned that 'Mufasa' holds a special place in his heart. The movie is set for a grand release not only in Telugu, Hindi, and English but also in Tamil. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oelsxH0orHI Dubbing Isn't New to Mahesh... But! This isn’t the first time Mahesh Babu has lent his voice for dubbing. In the past, he provided his voice for two films: Pawan Kalyan’s 'Jalsa' and Tarak’s 'Baadshah.' However, in those instances, he didn’t voice a specific character but contributed to elevating certain scenes with his voice. This time, however, it is the first instance where Mahesh has dubbed entirely for a character. It will be interesting to see how much Mahesh can captivate the audience with his voice.

SS Rajamouli's Unmade Film with Suriya and Karthi: A Missed Opportunity Before 'RRR'?

Director SS Rajamouli, who elevated Indian cinema to a global level and became the country's top director with 'Baahubali,' gained worldwide popularity with the film 'RRR.' The song "Naatu Naatu" from this film even won an Oscar, garnering accolades from all corners of the country. Currently, Rajamouli is busy launching a global-scale film 'SSMB29' with Mahesh Babu. Amidst this, an intriguing piece of news about Rajamouli has surfaced. It is known that he initially considered making a film with Kollywood stars Suriya and his brother Karthi, and it was rumored to be 'RRR.' Let's look into the details of this. 'They Narrated the Story... It Didn’t Work Out' Tamil star Karthi recently made interesting remarks in an interview. During the promotions for his next movie 'Satyam Sundaram,' Karthi, in an interview with director Gautham Menon, shared an intriguing past discussion. When Menon asked about acting alongside Suriya, Karthi revealed, "Suriya and I will act together if we get the right script. In the past, Director Rajamouli sir narrated a story to us. It was good but that movie didn’t work out." This revelation has surprised movie lovers, prompting questions about how they could pass up a Rajamouli story. There is speculation that had that movie been made, Suriya and Karthi’s stardom might have seen a different trajectory. https://twitter.com/adarshtp_offl/status/1835533193111392319 The Story of 'RRR'? Netizens speculate that the movie Rajamouli planned with Suriya and Karthi might have been 'RRR.' They assume that initially, Rajamouli envisioned Suriya and Karthi in the roles later played by Ram Charan and Tarak. For various reasons, that version never progressed to filming. Telugu audiences believe that if Karthi and Suriya had starred in 'RRR,' it might not have achieved the same level of success. They note that while the action and drama of 'RRR' are highlights, the dance sequences also stood out, an area where Suriya and Karthi might have lagged behind Charan and Tarak. Karthi as a Contender to Tarak! Karthi's latest film 'Satyam Sundari' is ready for release, where he stars alongside prominent actor Aravind Swamy. The film, directed by Prem Kumar C., who delivered the blockbuster '96,' is set to release worldwide on September 28. A teaser of the film was recently released and has captured attention. Karthi has also announced his next project, which will be produced under the banner of Dream Warrior Pictures as 'Karthi 29.' Details about the rest of the cast and technical team are expected to be released soon. 'SSMB 29' Shooting in December! Ever since Rajamouli announced a film with Mahesh Babu, everyone has been eagerly waiting to see when the film will go on floors. In this context, there is news that an official update related to SSMB29 will be given on Rajamouli's birthday. Regular shooting for the film is set to begin in December, with the first schedule starting in Germany. The film, set against an 18th-century backdrop featuring rare tribal communities, is creating strong buzz. An official announcement regarding this is expected soon.

Currently, 'SSMB29' is in the midst of active pre-production. However, recent developments have led to a surge of dissatisfaction among Mahesh Babu's fans towards director Rajamouli. Let's delve into the specifics of this update that has fans so upset. Here's Why the Fans Are Angry! Fans have been eagerly anticipating the 'SSMB29' project, a collaboration between Mahesh Babu and Rajamouli.

Another exciting rumor about the 'SSMB 29' project is causing a stir online: the film will be released in three parts. It’s said that Rajamouli has proposed to the makers to develop the movie in three parts, considering the extensive scope for graphics and the depth of the story requiring at least three parts to be fully told.  Rajamouli spent five years completing the two-part 'Baahubali' saga. Now, there's speculation on how many years it will take to complete three parts for Mahesh Babu’s film. Nassar Joins the Movie Team! Recently, interesting news has also trended online that renowned actor Nassar is involved in the movie. He has been participating in workshops along with other actors, offering valuable suggestions and advice to Mahesh Babu, particularly in delivering dialogues.

His iconic performance as Bijjaladeva in 'Baahubali' has left a lasting impression. https://twitter.com/Fukkard/status/1810503350913585650

Mahesh Babu’s Dramatic Transformation for SS Rajamouli’s SSMB 29 Shakes Social Media!

It goes without saying that a film by SS Rajamouli always comes with high expectations. When paired with superstar Mahesh Babu, these expectations reach new heights. It's already known that Mahesh Babu is undergoing a significant makeover for the movie. His new look has been spotted in various contexts, sporting long hair and a beard, a dramatic change from his usual style. Recently, Mahesh wowed everyone again with a stylish new look. Photos related to this are currently shaking up social media. Mahesh Babu's Mind-Blowing Look! Fans are eagerly awaiting the upcoming project 'SSMB 29' (working title), a collaboration between Mahesh Babu and the legendary director SS Rajamouli. For this film, Mahesh has grown out his hair and beard and bulked up his body. Consequently, his recent appearances have gone viral. Once again, Mahesh Babu's looks are trending online. While heading abroad, he was spotted at the airport looking stylish in a cream-colored hoodie, black goggles, and a red cap, complementing his long hair and rough beard. Recently, photos of Mahesh and his wife meeting Telangana CM Revanth Reddy have surfaced, showing that his hair and beard have grown even bushier compared to his previous look. These photos have gone viral on social media. https://twitter.com/GulteOfficial/status/1843123055985635398 Staying Close to His Son? Superstar Mahesh Babu often travels abroad with his family. It's known that he has once again set off on an international trip. A viral video from the airport shows him with his wife Namrata and daughter Sitara. However, it seems he traveled to the US to be with his son Gautam during the Dussehra holidays. Fans are admiring Mahesh for the importance he places on his family. With 'SSMB 29' about to start, fans commend him for dedicating this time to his family. https://twitter.com/i/status/1843173118166356044 Is This Really Mahesh Babu's Look? Fans are going crazy over Mahesh Babu's latest look, praising him for resembling a Hollywood hero. Comments suggest that Mahesh's look for 'SSMB29' is nearly finalized. However, the Tollywood buzz indicates that this is the look Mahesh will sport in the movie. After letting his hair and beard grow out, Rajamouli is expected to call in a hair stylist from abroad to style Mahesh into four or five different looks. Which one Rajamouli finalizes will ultimately be the look used in the film. Thus, fans mistakenly thought the current look was the final one. Mahesh Enjoys Freedom! Rajamouli takes special care to ensure the looks of his film's heroes remain a secret. He typically sets conditions to prevent the reveal of the look during the shooting period. Stars like Prabhas, Ram Charan, and Jr NTR followed this practice during the filming of 'Bahubali' and 'RRR.' Unlike them, Mahesh freely poses for cameras wherever he goes, revealing his makeover in some form. However, the reason Mahesh can roam freely is likely because this is not his final look. Once the final look is decided, Mahesh will probably take measures to avoid exposing it. Shooting Starts in December Currently, pre-production work for 'SSMB 29' is almost complete after several months of preparation. The entire team is expected to participate in a workshop by the end of this month. Rajamouli plans to start regular shooting from December. Furthermore, preparations are underway to begin the first schedule abroad, with a massive chase sequence planned in international forests. Given the global scale of the cinema, graphics work is crucial, and Rajamouli intends to finish these scenes first and then hand them over to the VFX team, ensuring that shooting and VFX work proceed in parallel.

Rajamouli, Prabhas, NTR, and Bunny: Tollywood's Box Office Titans Dominating the ₹1000 Crore Club

In Tollywood, reaching ₹100 crore in collections was once not a common feat. If a film crossed ₹100 crore during its lifetime, it was considered a significant achievement. However, the scenario has drastically changed in recent times. Director SS Rajamouli has elevated Tollywood to a global scale, making it common for our heroes to easily rake in ₹100 crores on the opening day alone. Recently, NTR also smashed records by grossing ₹172 crores on the first day alongside the godly figures. Several star heroes and directors from Tollywood have carved their own unique markets and can effortlessly claim these numbers with a solid hit. Let's take a look at these special figures. Market Over ₹1000 Crores! Director SS Rajamouli creates a global buzz with every film. His direction in 'Baahubali 2' (₹1810 crores) and 'RRR' (₹1300 crores) brought in over ₹1000 crores each. He is currently directing 'SSMB 29' with Mahesh Babu, which is expected to hit a global stride and is projected to gross around ₹2000 crores. On the other hand, pan-India star Prabhas has created a unique market for himself regardless of directors. His recent film 'Kalki 2898 AD' grossed over ₹1200 crores. With big projects like 'Kalki 2', 'Salaar 2', 'Spirit', and 'Raja Saab' in his pipeline, these films are poised to reach over ₹1000 crores. Market Between ₹700-1000 Crores Currently, Tollywood boasts five individuals who have a market capacity of from ₹700 Crores to ₹1000 crores. Among the heroes, Mahesh Babu and Allu Arjun easily fit this bill. Allu Arjun is set to release 'Pushpa 2' on December 6, and with the national buzz it's generating, it could easily make between ₹700-1000 crores if it becomes a hit. Mahesh Babu is set to drastically raise his market with an upcoming film directed by Rajamouli. Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who is planning his next film with Prabhas, is expected to touch the ₹1000 crore mark, as per industry analysts. Prashanth Neel’s upcoming projects with NTR ('NTR31') and Prabhas ('Salaar 2') also place him in this high market bracket. Market Between ₹500-700 Crores In this market range, three Tollywood heroes stand out. NTR, Ram Charan, and Pawan Kalyan can easily achieve this with a proper hit. Notably, Tarak has already shown the potential to easily join the ₹500 crore club with his recent success with Devara. Ram Charan, collaborating with director Shankar on 'Game Changer', is expected to release around Christmas, and success here could similarly elevate him to the ₹500 crore club. Pawan Kalyan has yet to venture into pan-India films, but his upcoming projects 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' and 'OG' are set at this level. There's significant anticipation for 'OG' among fans. Market Between ₹200-500 Crores From Tollywood, megastar Chiranjeevi and Balakrishna are likely contenders for this category. At 69, Chiranjeevi's star power remains undiminished. His upcoming movie 'Vishwambhara' is highly anticipated and could easily make ₹200-500 crores if successful. Balakrishna’s last three films have each crossed ₹100 crores. His next, 'NBK109' directed by Bobby, features Bollywood actor Bobby Deol as the antagonist. A successful clash between them could easily surpass ₹200 crores. Meanwhile, script magician Trivikram, despite mixed reviews for his last film 'Gunturu Karam', managed ₹250 crores. His next film is rumored to be with Allu Arjun, which could potentially rake in ₹500 crores if successful. Director Koratala Siva has also increased his market value with the film 'Devara', projecting his future films to start above the ₹200 crore mark.
