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.
