Mahesh Babu starrer SSMB 29 will begin shooting in January 2025. The film is written by Vijayendra Prasad and is being directed by SS Rajamouli. It is set against the backdrop of an epic adventure. The film will reportedly feature an international cast.

After the global success of RRR, which won the Oscar for Best Original Song (Naatu Naatu), the director’s collaboration with superstar Mahesh Babu has taken the excitement to new heights. Writer Vijayendra Prasad recently revealed during his ‘Master Class’ session that the shooting of the film is scheduled to begin in January 2025. The film is expected to release in 2028.

Mahesh Babu fans are eagerly waiting for this high-budget film, which promises to deliver an extraordinary cinematic experience. Described as a globe-trotting adventure film, the film is largely set in the Amazon rainforest. Vijayendra Prasad, who worked on the script for almost two years, shared that the film will introduce audiences to an entirely new world – one that has not been seen before in Indian cinema.

The film will feature a diverse cast, with several foreign actors playing lead roles. It is also expected to be named Garuda, although there is no official confirmation on this yet.

Rajamouli is known for creating grand cinematic universes, and SSMB 29 is expected to push those boundaries even further. Pre-production is underway at a rapid pace and the scale of this film suggests it will be an epic, larger-than-life experience.

Produced by KL Narayan under the Durga Arts banner, SSMB 29 is set to be an important milestone in Mahesh Babu’s career. The film will be released in multiple Indian languages ​​and plans for foreign language translations have also been announced, pointing to the film’s global appeal.
