A
few
months
ago,
we
had
reported
that
SS
Rajamouli
will
be
collaborating
with
Superstar
Mahesh
for
his
next
venture
after
Jr
NTR
and
Ram
Charan-starrer
magnum
opus
RRR.
Well,
ever
since
the
Baahubali
director
confirmed
about
his
next
with
the
Maharshi
actor,
fans
can't
keep
calm
to
know
more
about
one
the
most
ambitious
projects
in
Tollywood.
Amidst
all,
the
Pinkvilla
report
suggests
that
SS
Rajamouli's
next
with
Mahesh
Babu
will
be
a
different
kind
of
film,
which
the
duo
has
never
explored
before.
A
source
close
to
the
development
informed
the
entertainment
portal,
"After
directing
back-to-back
period
dramas,
SS
Rajamouli
and
his
father,
K.V.
Vijayendra
Prasad,
are
set
to
explore
an
altogether
new
world
with
the
Mahesh
Babu
film.
It's
a
jungle-based
adventure,
essentially
an
African
forest
action-adventure,
with
visuals
that
have
not
been
seen
in
Indian
cinema.
While
the
story
will
be
set
in
a
world
of
forests,
it
will
be
packed
with
a
lot
of
action,
thrills
and
drama.
Even
Mahesh
is
excited
to
foray
into
this
high
on
VFX
film."
When
the
portal
contacted
the
writer
and
Rajamouli's
father
Vijayendra
Prasad,
the
Baahubali
fame
said,
"It's
too
early
to
talk
about
it
right
now,
but
yes,
I
am
trying
to
explore
the
African
Forest
Adventure
space
(for
Mahesh
Babu
film).
It's
not
yet
finalized,
but
I
am
trying
to
crack
this
space
at
the
moment.
The
timelines
of
shoot
are
not
fixed
as
of
now,
but
the
film
is
happening
next."
The
source
further
revealed,
"Rajamouli
and
his
father
worked
on
this
idea
through
the
lockdown,
and
the
director
will
now
get
into
the
space
of
writing
the
action-adventure
again
on
wrapping
up
the
work
on
RRR.
While
no
shooting
timelines
are
in
place
as
yet,
the
earliest
it
can
go
on
floors
is
towards
the
end
of
2022.
A
call
on
shooting
schedule
will
be
taken
once
the
script
is
completely
locked." Notably,
the
makers
have
not
yet
finalised
the
title,
but
looks
like
they
are
going
to
make
it
like
Hollywood
action
adventure
films
like
Jumanji
and
Indiana
Jones.
Elaborating
more
about
the
subject,
the
source
concluded
by
saying,
"It's
a
subject
that
hasn't
been
explored
in
Indian
cinema
much,
which
is
the
reason
why
the
trio
is
planning
to
bring
it
to
the
spectacle
for
the
Pan-Indian
audience
in
multiple
languages.
The
subject
has
tremendous
potential
at
the
box-office.
The
first
step
is
to
lock
the
script
and
then
move
onto
virtually
creating
the
world
of
jungles."
Currently,
SS
Rajamouli
is
busy
shooting
RRR's
remaining
sequences.
The
film
also
stars
Ajay
Devgn,
Alia
Bhatt,
Shriya
Saran
and
Olivia
Morris
in
key
roles.
It
is
scheduled
to
be
released
on
October
13,
2021.
On
the
other
hand,
Mahesh
Babu
is
busy
working
for
his
next
Sarkaru
Vaari
Paata,
directed
by
Parasuram.
The
film
also
stars
Keerthy
Suresh
as
the
female
lead.
