SS Rajamouli is presenting the Ayan Mukerji directorial in the South. Explaining why he is supporting the Karan Johar-production, the ace director said, he said, "I?havenĄ¯t done so much for Brahmastra. The real reason I associated with Brahmastra was the story and the vision of Ayan Mukerji. When I see a good product coming, I feel I should do something for that."
Furthermore, he added, "Civilizations across the world were formed on the banks of the rivers. We started moving from South to North with our films like Baahubali and KGF. Its time and I hope that the love starts flowing from North to South. We are a country and we have to make Indian films, not language films."
