Maverick director SS Rajamouli, NTR and Ram Charan are turning live for the first time to unfold many details about the film, cast and crew members along with the film’s genre. With several speculations going all over, SS Rajamouli decided to interact with the press and make things official. Here are the highlights along with the official announcement made in the press meet:
SS Rajamouli’s Words:
I always wanted to reveal the plot about my next before starting the shoot. There is so much co-incidence between the life stories of Alluri Seetharama Raju and Komaram Bheem. RRR is all about two heroes who are freedom fighters. It is a fictional tale about two real heroes. The story happens in 1920 and we did a lot of research and RRR is made on lavish scale and standards. Ram Charan plays Alluri Seetharama Raju and Tarak plays Komaram Bheem.
The film has a strong supporting cast. Ajay Devgn will be doing a crucial role in the film and he plays a powerful role that comes in flashback episodes. Alia Bhatt will romance Ram Charan in the film. I met her at the airport and she is all excited about her assignment. Daisy Edgar Jones is the foreign beauty that will play as the female lead and she will romance Tarak.
Tamil actor Samuthirakani will play a crucial role. RRR is the Working Title. It received top class response from all corners. RRR will be a common title for all the languages. But as an expansion, we will have different titles for every language. We are in plans to invite suggestions for expansions of the title. If we get a better one, we will change the title for all the languages.
Ram Charan’s Words:
We are proud of being a part of this magnum opus. I got a call from Rajamouli and reached his residence. I was surprised to see Tarak sitting there and we both were surprised. Rajamouli garu left us excited with the big announcement. Me and Tarak are yet to work together for this film and the big schedules are yet to come. I am all excited about RRR.
NTR’s Words:
RRR happened only because of Jakkanna (Rajamouli). It is our belief and confidence that we have on him. Me and Charan are close friends from years and I thank him for accepting this film. I pray to God that we should remain as thick friends for this entire life. RRR will stand as a milestone in my career and will bring enough name for everyone involved and associated with RRR.
DVV Danayya’s Words:
I am grateful and thank SS Rajamouli garu for the opportunity. I am proud to associate with the actors representing two big families of Telugu cinema. RRR will release on July 30th 2020 in ten Indian languages. The film also may release other international languages which is yet to be decided.
We completed two schedules for the film till date. The next schedules will take place in Ahmedabad and Pune for 30 days. The estimated budget of RRR is Rs 350-400 crores.
