All eyes are on Tollywood Superstar Mahesh Babu and numero uno director SS Rajamouli’s highly anticipated globe-trotting jungle adventure. Tentatively titled SSMB29, the film has wrapped up two major schedules in Hyderabad and Odisha, and the third schedule is set to commence today.

Until recently, speculations about National Award-winning Kollywood star Chiyaan Vikram being approached by SSMB29 makers for a key role did several rounds on the internet. However, the latest updates reveal that Vikram has politely declined the offer, as he is in no mood to play a negative role at this point in his career. After Vikram turned down the offer, SSMB29 makers reportedly approached R Madhavan for the role, and the actor is yet to confirm his participation.

SSMB29 also features Indo-Hollywood actor Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Malayalam star Prithviraj Sukumaran in lead roles. The film is being produced by KL Narayana with a whopping budget of Rs 1,000 crore. MM Keeravani is scoring the soundtrack. Stay tuned for further updates on this prestigious project.
