SS Rajamouli and Mahesh Babu
SS Rajamouli’s action adventure, the working title of which is SSMB29, has taken him from Odisha to Hyderabad since it rolled last year. Now, the filmmaker and leading man Mahesh Babu have zeroed in on the next destination. Sources reveal that the director will begin an elaborate three-week schedule in Kenya in July.

It has been learnt that the Kenya leg will feature some intense action sequences. A unit insider reveals, “Rajamouli sir chose the country because it has everything the film needs — savannahs, highlands, and dense forests.” The portions will be filmed across multiple locations, including the Tsavo National Park, the Aberdare
National Park, and on the outskirts of Nairobi.
