SS Rajamouli Recalls One of His Most Depressing Moments In Filmmaking Career

Hyderabad, May 11 - SS Rajamouli is one of the most celebrated and successful Indian filmmakers of all time, and his movies have paved the path for other filmmakers to dream big. ## One of the landmark moments in Rajamouli's career is the Prabhas-fronted Baahubali film series which opened the doors for Telugu cinema on the national front. The two-part film is the highest-grossing franchise in India. ## While "Baahubali" gave Rajamouli nationwide recognition, the filmmaker revealed that it also gave him one of the most depressing moments of his filmmaking career. During an event hosted by his brother-in-law Dr. AV Guruva Reddy, Rajamouli revealed that even though Baahubali - The Beggining got a positive reception all over, he left highly disappointed with reviews from the Telugu people.## "On the day of the release of Baahubali: The Beginning, it was the first pan-Indian film, so we released it in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, the whole of North India, America, and UAE. We had a positive talk all across the globe. But our main bread and butter are from Telugu-speaking states, (and there) it had a very bad reception. People were saying it is one of the biggest disasters of the film industry".## He further revealed that since the movie was a huge budgeted one, he feared worst if it had become a disaster as that would have put the producer in a huge financial crisis. Thankfully, the paying audience didn't entertain the negativity and made Baahubali the biggest blockbuster of that time before "Baahubali 2" shattered all the records everywhere. ## The first part of the epic historical drama grossed approx. 650 crores worldwide against the budget of approx. 180 crores, before "Baahubali 2" scored over 1700 crores and is currently the second highest-grossing Indian film of all time.## Stay tuned...

SS Rajamouli Shares His 10-Films Dream Plan For Epic Mahabharat

Mumbai, May 11 - Maverick filmmaker SS Rajamouli has established himself as one of the biggest Indian filmmakers, and with each passing film, he is reaching new highs. Rajamouli's last film "RRR" gave him international acclaim and now, he is making sure his upcoming films are on the international standards.## At the time when he is focussing on learning bigger things in filmmaking, Rajamouli reveals once again that each learning is taking him closer to his dream project, which is epic Mahabharat. The "Baahubali" filmmaker has often spoken about the making of Mahabharat, and now, he elaborates things further. ## During a recent event, Rajamouli said that "If I get to the point of making Mahabharat, it would take me a year or more just to read the versions of Mahabharat that are available in the country. At present, I can only assume that it would be a 10-part film".## He further said that bringing this epic to life is the ultimate goal of his career and with each passing film, he is getting closer to his dream. "Every film I make, I feel that I'm learning something to ultimately make Mahabharat. So that's my dream and every step is towards that", he added.## On the work front, Rajamouli is currently working on the script of his next which is with superstar Mahesh Babu. It is said to be a jungle adventure film and is expected to start shooting later this year. ## Stay tuned...
