Superstar Mahesh Babu To Mark His Hindi Debut With SS Rajamouli's Pan-India Film

Hyderabad, October 14 - Mahesh Babu is one of the few Tollywood actors who carry a huge fan-following among the Hindi audiences. Even though he never worked in a Hindi film, his dubbed Telugu movies have been massive hits on their television premiere. ## It is his popularity among the Hindi audience that he has been receiving multiple offers from Bollywood for years. While he time and again has affirmed that the Telugu cinema is his priority, the "Pokiri" actor never rejected the idea of making his Bollywood film debut. ## There have been many rumors about his Hindi debut in the past but none turned true. Well, the wait for the Hindi audience to see Telugu superstar on the big screen is finally coming to an end as Mahesh Babu's next film is with Baahubali director SS Rajamouli and it will be a Pan-India film.## The Maharshi actor is currently shooting for Parasuram's directorial "Sarkaru Vaari Paata" day-in-day-out. After completing his ongoing film, he will jump into SS Rajamouli's next and that will be Babu's foray into the Hindi film industry. In an email interview with Forbes India, Mahesh Babu confirmed that his next will be with Rajamouli and it will be a Pan India flick. ## "I have always wanted to do the right film at the right time if it was a Hindi film. And I think the time is now... my next is with SS Rajamouli sir [director of Baahubali] and that will be in all languages", Mahesh Babu said. ## Due to the covid-19 pandemic, the OTT platforms have been on the rise as they became the first choice medium to consume entertainment in the absence of a big-screen release.

However, Mahesh Babu does not believe in this theory and said that theaters are here to stay. ## "You can't imagine a world without a theatre… most films are enjoyed on the big screen as opposed to on your mobile.

Theatres are definitely here to stay", the actor said. ## Sarkaru Vaari Paata is scheduled to release on January 13, 2022, in theaters worldwide. ## Stay tuned...

Salman Khan And Ayush Sharma's 'Antim: The Final Truth' To Lock Horns With John Abraham Starrer Satyameva Jayate 2!

Mumbai, October 11 - The release prospect for the Bollywood film industry has changed in the last couple of weeks. Movies that were supposed to be heading for direct-to-digital release are now gearing up for the theatrical release. One such film is Salman Khan and Ayush Sharma starrer "Antim: The Final Truth".## "Antim: The Final Truth", the gangster-cop drama was earlier reportedly sold for direct OTT release. However, after theaters in Maharashtra were permitted to operate from October 22, the makers changed their plans and now opting for theatrical release. The film was in line for its possible Diwali release. However, the movie is now scheduled to hit the big screens on November 26 after director Manjrekar filmed few more scenes on Salman. ## Salman, who recently returned from Tiger 3 shoot, has been shooting for a few extra scenes. A source told mid-day, "After returning from the international schedule of Tiger 3, Salman filmed some solo dialogue scenes between October 4 and 6. The decision to add more sequences, featuring the actor, was taken jointly by Salman and Mahesh after seeing the rushes of the gangster-cop drama". ## After the latest development, "Antim" will most probably be clashing with John Abraham starrer "Satyameva Jayate 2", which has already been confirmed to release on November 26. Both the films are masala entertainers with a mass audience in mind, hence, it will be an interesting battle at the box office. SMJ2 has an edge over Antim as this John Abraham fronted has been one of the most-awaited Hindi films. Anti, on the other hand, is not a complete Salman Khan film. The actor is playing an extended cameo in the movie which is the official remake of the 2018 Marathi film Mulshi Pattern.## Salman Khan plays a Sikh cop in the film while Ayush Sharma plays a gangster. South Indian actress Pragya Jaiswal is reportedly playing the female lead opposite Salman Khan in the movie. It is produced by Salman Khan Films. SMJ2 is the sequel of the 2018 film Satyameva Jayate.
