The Spyder actor couldn't give a better surprise to his fans that he has joined hands with filmmaker SS Rajamouli, who have given back to back blockbuster movies in the industry lately.
Speaking of how he feels working with Rajamouli Garu, the actor said, "It¡¯s a dream come true for me to work with him. Doing one film with Rajamouli garu is like taking up 25 films at once. It¡¯s going to be physically demanding and I¡¯m really excited about it. It¡¯s going to be a pan-India film. I hope we break many barriers and take our work to audiences across the country."
Rajamouli has been unstoppable when it comes to making successful pan-India films. However, Mahesh babu had recently courted controversy for his comment on Bollywood when he publicly declared that Boollywood can't afford him.
The 4-year-old actor also known as Ghattamaneni Mahesh Babu had stated, ¡°I don¡¯t need to do Hindi films. I can just do a Telugu film and it¡¯ll get seen all over the world ¨C that¡¯s what¡¯s happening right now. You¡¯d want to be in a position to do (only) a Telugu film.¡±
However, he later clarified that he had always wanted to do Telugu films and wished for Telugu movies to do well across the country. "I strongly feel, why should we go to another industry by leaving ours behind? I am very happy that our films are reaching there (in North India). Our movies are doing well at the pan-India level and my dream is coming true,¡± the actor had said.
Meanwhile, it would be interesting to see if Mahesh Babu will make his debut in Hindi cinema with SS Rajamouli's pan-India flick. Well, only time will tell.
