SS
Rajamouli
took
the
nation
by
storm
with
his
period
films,
Baahubali:
The
Beginning
and
Baahubali:
The
Conclusion.
After
the
stupendous
success
of
both
the
films,
the
director's
next
is
RRR,
which
stars
Ram
Charan
and
Junior
NTR
as
the
male
leads.
RRR
also
stars
Alia
Bhatt
and
Daisy
Edgar
Jones.
Bollywood
actor
Ajay
Devgn
will
also
be
seen
in
an
extended
cameo
in
this
ambitious
project.
Currently
riding
high
on
the
success
of
his
recently-released
film
Tanhaji:
The
Unsung
Warrior,
the
superstar
kick-started
the
shooting
of
RRR
today
with
ace
director
SS
Rajamouli.
The
team
welcomed
Ajay
onboard
and
the
official
Twitter
handle
of
RRR
tweeted,
"All
of
us
are
super
charged
and
ecstatic
to
kickstart
our
schedule
with
@AjayDevgn
ji
today...
Welcome
Sir!#AjayDevgn
#RRRMovie

In

and
wine

posted
on
their
Twitter
page,
"All

are

Without
divulging
much
details
about
Ajay's
role
in
RRR,
SS
Rajamouli
earlier
told
a
leading
daily,
"When
I
explained
to
Ajay
Devgan
his
character,
he
got
really
excited
and
immediately
gave
me
his
dates.
He's
playing
a
very
powerful
character
in
a
flashback
sequence."
Set
in
the
backdrop
of
1920s
North
India
under
the
colonial
rule
of
Britain,
RRR
is
reportedly
a
fictionalized
account
of
Telugu
tribal
leaders
Alluri
Sitarama
Raju
and
Komaram
Bheem.
The
filmmaker
and
his
father
K.
V.
Vijayendra
Prasad
have
reimagined
the
formative
years
of
these
leaders
by
taking
advantage
of
the
fact
that
there
were
no
records
as
to
what
happened
in
their
lives
while
they
were
away
from
their
homeland.
Rajamouli
further
added,
"All
the
stories
we
know
about
these
heroes
begin
with
their
freedom
struggle.
But,
my
film
ends
with
their
return
to
their
villages."
Buzz
is
that
Raja
Charan
plays
the
role
of
Alluri
Sitarama
Raju,
Junior
NTR
will
be
seen
as
Komaram
Bheem.
Speaking
about
working
with
Rajamouli,
Alia
earlier
shared,
"I
look
up
to
his
work
and
have
been
a
fan
even
before
Baahubali
released.
In
fact,
not
many
would
know
that
when
I
met
him
at
the
airport,
I
was
like,
'Sir
I
want
to
work
with
you'.
After
Baahubali,
the
moment
I
heard
that
he
is
working
on
his
next
film,
I
knew
I
had
to
work
with
him.
He
was
quite
surprised
and
told
me
that
he
was
also
thinking
of
working
with
me
and
that
I
would
have
got
a
call
from
him
anyway.
It
was
a
little
random
at
that
time
but
then
later
we
met
and
everything
fell
in
place."
The
actress,
who
is
paired
opposite
Ram
Charan,
even
learnt
her
lines
in
Telugu
to
add
authenticity
to
her
role.
If
reports
are
to
be
believed,
the
makers
of
RRR
have
completed
more
than
70
percent
of
the
film's
shooting.
However,
they
are
yet
to
announce
the
official
date
of
this
movie.
