South superstar Mahesh Babu and director SS Rajamouli have teamed up for their next movie, SSMB29. Although the project has not yet received an official announcement, the filmmaker seems to be hinting at it in his most recent Instagram post.

SS Rajamouli shared a short video on Instagram on Saturday that showed a gorgeous lion holding an Indian passport. The glance also showed the lion in a cage, which was a subliminal reference to Mahesh Babu’s imprisonment throughout the making of his film.
“Captured.” was the caption.

For those who don’t know, Mahesh Babu is symbolized by this lion because his admirers have been referring to him as a “lion” since he portrayed Mufasa in the Telugu version of the Disney movie.
In reaction to the post, Mahesh Babu recited the famous quote from his 2006 hit movie Pokiri in Telugu: “Okkasaari commit ayithe naa maata nene vinanu.” [Once I commit, I won’t even listen to myself].”
With her reply, actress Priyanka Chopra, who is rumored to be playing the female protagonist in SSMB29, seems to be validating her association.
Then she said, “Finally.”

SS Rajamouli already discussed SSMB29 during RRR’s Japan screening.
“We started my next film,” the renowned director declared. The writing was finished by us. The pre-production phase is now underway. All of the film’s pre-visualization is being done by us. However, the casting process is still ongoing. The film’s protagonist, the primary hero, is the only one who is locked. Mahesh Babu is his name. He is an actor in Telugu.
It appears that many of you are already familiar with Mahesh Babu, SS Rajamouli continued as the audience cheered his name. He is really attractive, and perhaps the movie will be finished a little sooner. I’ll bring him here during the release. And I’ll present him to you; I’m sure you’ll adore him too.
Regarding the rest of the cast, Prithviraj Sukumaran is also involved in the film and will portray the antagonist.
