SS Rajamouli’s upcoming film with superstar Mahesh Babu, tentatively titled as SSMB29, is already generating a lot of excitement as it promises to be a thrilling globe-trotting jungle adventure. The film is expected to be a major milestone in Indian cinema and aims for international recognition with its ambitious scope and storytelling.

Interestingly, Bollywood is reportedly working on a similar genre project with Ajay Devgn directed by Jagan Shakti. Exploring India’s ancient forests, mountains and caves, this film is positioned as a thrilling adventure inspired by films like the Indiana Jones franchise. It will blend folklore, mythology and advanced visual effects to create a visually stunning experience.

Some Tollywood fans speculate that Bollywood’s timing for this project could be a strategic move to release it before SSMB29, thus potentially dampening the impact of Rajamouli’s film by offering a similar setting and genre first. The idea is that audiences might find Rajamouli’s film less unique or groundbreaking by experiencing a jungle adventure in Bollywood’s film.

However, these concerns seem unfounded when one considers Rajamouli’s exceptional track record. Even when Bollywood releases a film of similar genre first, Rajamouli’s storytelling, direction and the sheer scale of his projects are often unparalleled, ensuring that SSMB29 will be highly anticipated and well received by audiences both in India and internationally.
