Looks like Deepika Padukone has bagged another big project opposite a South superstar. After signing a film with Telugu cinema's superstar Prabhas, Deepika is reportedly roped in for the lead role in SS Rajamouli's new film. As for the male lead, Rajamouli's next movie is said to be with Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu. However, there has been no official announcement yet.

The film, written by Rajamouli's father K.V. Vijayendra Prasad, is said to be inspired by real-life events and the latest buzz is that it will star Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone opposite Mahesh Babu. Tentatively titled SSMB29, the film is an adventure drama and will most likely go on floors by the first half of 2023. According to the media reports, this will be the first time when Deepika and Mahesh will be working together.
