Rajamouli said, “if you liked Baahubali, you’d like this (film)too”. When asked about his wish to direct two big stars from the Tamil industry, the Director responded thus -“All are Indian stars; No Tamil, Telegu, Hindi…”

The director was speaking at the pre-release event of his upcoming big-budget film RRR. The film, which is a fictional tale based on real-life characters, set in the early 20th century, is slated to hit screens worldwide on January 7, 2022. 

Elaborating on the mega project that he had been working on for the last four years, Rajamouli said that it was a tale of Indian emotion, revolution, a culture that is endemic only to this country. 

On his shooting experience with Ram Charan, Jr. NTR said that he wanted to do every shot one more time, just to share that time with the former. He added that Rajmouli broke the barriers of regional cinema and that ‘RRR’ would bring back the glory of two big stars being in a film.

For RRR, the Director took the analogy of the five Pandavas from the Mahabharata epic, referring to his Production designer, Director of photography, Visual Effects Supervisor Editor and Costume designer.

With ‘RRR’, audience is expecting the same drama that they have witnessed in SS Rajamouli’s Bahubali . The film was the first ever Indian movie to earn Rs. 100 crore within 35 hours of its release.
