Renowned filmmaker S.S. Rajamouli is currently busy working on his next big-budget project, tentatively titled SSMB29. The film, which is expected to be made with an impressive budget of ₹1000 crores, stars Mahesh Babu alongside Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra, who will be playing a pivotal role as the villain.
The film’s shooting is underway in Hyderabad, with scenes being filmed at an aluminum factory, where Mahesh Babu has already begun his part. Priyanka Chopra is set to join him soon, as she prepares to take on the role of a villain in this much-anticipated film. While the film’s official title has not yet been revealed, discussions are ongoing about two potential names—Gurud and Maharaja—though nothing has been finalized yet. Rajamouli and his team are keeping details under wraps, and there are reports suggesting that no phones are allowed on set to maintain secrecy.
This upcoming movie has already stirred a lot of curiosity, especially with Priyanka Chopra being offered a prominent villain role that is expected to be unlike anything audiences have seen from her before. Interestingly, Priyanka has agreed to a fee of ₹30 crores for this film, which is ₹10 crores less than her usual Hollywood project fees. This decision comes in light of the exciting role she has been promised by Rajamouli, which she believes will be a standout character in her career.

The film’s production is being kept highly confidential, with only selective information being leaked. Reports suggest that veteran actor Nana Patekar may also be cast in the film, although this has not been confirmed. While Maharaja is being considered as a possible title, there is some caution in choosing it, as several films have already been released with this name.
With Rajamouli’s reputation for creating cinematic masterpieces, anticipation continues to build for the official reveal of the film’s title and more details about the star-studded cast. As the shoot progresses in Hyderabad, fans and industry insiders eagerly await more updates about this high-profile project.
