Headlined by Mahesh Babu, the film also features Priyanka Chopra in the lead. Buzz is building fast around SS Rajamouli’s next magnum opus starring Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu . Ever since the project was announced, fans have been eagerly waiting for updates—especially the release date.
And it looks like the wait might finally be over. According to recent reports, the makers are eyeing a grand release, possibly timed to mirror the successful release window of Rajamouli’s previous blockbuster, RRR. While nothing is officially confirmed yet, anticipation is running high for what promises to be another cinematic spectacle.
The Oscar-winning blockbuster RRR, which stormed the global box office, was released on March 25, 2022. Now, in a move that feels both symbolic and strategic, SS Rajamouli is reportedly eyeing March 25, 2027, as the release date for his next big project, SSMB29, starring Mahesh Babu. According to a report by Gulte, the filmmaker is considering this date to mark the fifth anniversary of RRR, which featured Ram Charan and Jr NTR in the lead.
If the buzz turns out to be true, fans can expect a grand cinematic celebration—one that pays homage to Rajamouli’s past success while ushering in his next epic. However, there’s been no official confirmation from the makers or the director yet. Touted to be one of the most expensive Indian films ever, with a staggering budget of ₹1,000 crore, the project has already stirred massive buzz and speculation.
Fans and industry insiders alike are now eagerly awaiting a formal announcement on the release date and more details about this highly anticipated cinematic spectacle. Headlined by Mahesh Babu, the film also features Priyanka Chopra as the female lead and Prithviraj Sukumaran as the antagonist. According to Pinkvilla, SSMB29 would be released as one whole movie without breaking it into parts.
Though there were rumours claiming that the film would be released in two parts, the outlet confirmed that the filmmaker wishes his storytelling to be compact and doesn’t want to stretch it just for the sake of it. Deeply rooted in Indian history and mythology, the upcoming film promises to be a visual spectacle. A major chunk of the movie was shot in Odisha, and over the past few months, several behind-the-scenes clips and images of its grand sets have taken the internet by storm.
The film’s powerful musical score is being composed by Oscar-winning maestro MM Keeravani. Adding to the buzz, the magnum opus is reportedly being presented by a global studio—an effort by SS Rajamouli to craft an Indian film that meets international standards. While an official announcement is expected in the coming months, the cast already includes Mahesh Babu, with names like Priyanka Chopra and Prithviraj Sukumaran reportedly attached.
The rest of the ensemble remains under wraps, further fuelling anticipation around this much-awaited cinematic experience..
