This is when S.S. Rajamouli plans to launch his next RRR

After the earth-shattering success of Baahubali: The Beginning (2015) and Baahubali: The Conclusion (2017), fans of ace filmmaker S.S. Rajamouli are waiting for his next directorial venture with bated breath. Tentatively titled RRR, the movie is being touted as the biggest multi-starrer in Tollywood as it stars Jr NTR and Ram Charan in lead roles.

According to a teaser released by the DVV Entertainments, RRR, which is a period drama set to be made on a huge scale, will have its launch ceremony on November 11 at 11 am.


"The pre-production work has already begun. The art department has commenced work on erecting sets where a crucial portion of the film will be shot. The estimated budget of the film will be Rs. 300 crore,” a source informs.

Another source says, “Rajamouli’s father and writer Vijayendra Prasad has penned a gripping drama that’ll show both the stars, Charan and Jr NTR, in a new light without affecting their respective market images. Since the director has earlier worked on themes like rebirths and on period dramas, it’ll be interesting to see how he gives a different spin to this period drama.”

While Jr NTR and Ram Charan have been confirmed for the project long ago, the makers are yet to announce the name of the female leads. We hope that on November 11, they also announce the name of the film’s heroines.

'My Brilliant Career' review: Netflix makes a 125-year-old feminist story feel dangerously modern

Highlights

  • Netflix’s six-part series adapts Miles Franklin’s 1901 feminist novel
  • Phillipa Northeast stars as Sybylla Melvyn, a young writer determined to avoid the life chosen for her
  • The adaptation combines period drama with modern music, frank sexuality and stories of racism and social inequality

An erotic poem, a scandalised grandmother and a young woman with little interest in marriage make for an unexpectedly lively opening to My Brilliant Career. Netflix’s six-part adaptation of Miles Franklin’s 1901 novel wastes little time establishing that this will not be a restrained period drama.

Adapted by Liz Doran, the series follows Sybylla Melvyn, a fiercely independent young woman who dreams of becoming a writer. It follows Gillian Armstrong’s acclaimed 1979 film starring Judy Davis and Sam Neill, but brings a distinctly contemporary energy to Franklin’s story.
