SS Rajamouli is known for taking his time to meticulously craft the script and handle the pre-production work for his films. Initially, he planned to begin his next project with Mahesh Babu in the first half of the year, but it faced delays for several reasons. The film requires shooting in multiple countries around the world, leading Rajamouli to scout for suitable locations. Some countries have been selected, but the search for perfect settings continues. Meanwhile, Mahesh Babu is also taking time to achieve the desired look with specific hair and beard styling for his role.
The team is in discussions with a few Hollywood studios, as the film is set for a massive international release in English. Workshops are currently being held in Hyderabad, with the cast and crew being finalized. According to recent updates, Rajamouli plans to start filming in mid-December, with production expected to span two years. The title and basic plot will be revealed before shooting begins. MM Keeravani and PS Vinod have been confirmed as key technicians for this untitled film, which will be produced by KL Narayana as a grand pan-Indian project.
