SS Rajamouli’s upcoming film SSMB29 continues to create buzz across the country. The visionary director of Baahubali and RRR now develops this massive jungle-adventure movie with superstar Mahesh Babu and global icon Priyanka Chopra in lead roles. But the latest twist? Reports say Shraddha Kapoor might also join the cast in a significant role.
This exciting update has caught everyone’s attention. Though Rajamouli’s team hasn’t confirmed anything, several sources claim Shraddha will play a crucial part in the second half of the film. If this happens, she will finally collaborate with Rajamouli, after missing the chance during RRR due to scheduling issues.
Priyanka Chopra Returns, Shraddha Kapoor Enters the Buzz
Priyanka Chopra officially takes on the female lead opposite Mahesh Babu. She plays a bold, action-packed character in this film. After a long break from Indian cinema, she steps back in with this high-stakes project. The production team currently shoots scenes in Hyderabad and Odisha, while they recreate the holy city of Kashi as a major setting in the story.
Sources claim Shraddha Kapoor might appear in the latter half of the film. Though the makers have not revealed her character, fans believe she could bring depth with a strong, emotional role.
Rajamouli Takes Inspiration from Wilbur Smith’s Jungle Sagas
Rajamouli and writer Vijayendra Prasad build the film’s story around jungle themes inspired by Wilbur Smith’s novels. The plot blends history, mythology, and intense adventure. The characters travel through forests, rivers, and ancient caves spread across India and Africa.
Shraddha Kapoor Fits the Vision Perfectly
Rajamouli carefully selects his cast. Shraddha Kapoor brings pan-Indian appeal, solid box office credibility, and strong performances in various genres. By adding her to the cast, the film could attract an even wider audience, especially younger fans. Rajamouli previously explored multiple casting choices before finalizing Alia Bhatt and Olivia Morris for RRR, showing his flexible approach.
All Eyes on the Official Announcement
The makers plan to release SSMB29 in 2027 with a grand international rollout. While Priyanka Chopra’s role is confirmed, they have not officially addressed Shraddha Kapoor’s involvement. Yet, the possibility of both stars sharing screen space has already stirred excitement.
If Shraddha comes on board, SSMB29 will boast one of the strongest female leads in Indian cinema. The film promises high-voltage drama, epic visuals, mythological depth, and now, a double dose of star power.
