The first teaser of SS Rajamouli’s highly anticipated adventure epic starring Mahesh Babu — tentatively titled SSMB29 — will drop on November 15, 2025, igniting what fans are calling a “historic November” for Tollywood.
The announcement came via a cryptic post from Rajamouli’s production house DVV Entertainment, featuring a countdown clock and the tagline:
“The world is the new battlefield. The legend begins November 15.”
Within hours, #SSMB29 and #Rajamouli trended across social platforms worldwide, amassing over 4 million mentions in less than 12 hours.
🌍 An Untitled Global Adventure
Described as a “globe-trotting action-adventure with mythological undertones,” SSMB29 marks Rajamouli’s first collaboration with superstar Mahesh Babu — and is already being dubbed India’s answer to Indiana Jones.
According to early leaks, the story spans Africa, Europe, and ancient Indian ruins, combining Rajamouli’s signature mythic scale with high-concept global storytelling.
Industry insiders confirm that Priyanka Chopra Jonas has officially joined the cast, playing a key international role opposite Mahesh Babu, marking her grand return to Indian cinema after The White Tiger (2021).
“This is not just a film — it’s a cinematic expedition,” Rajamouli said in a recent behind-the-scenes clip. “Mahesh embodies the spirit of a modern-day explorer, and this story will connect India’s mythology with the world’s history.”
💫 Rajamouli’s Vision: Myth Meets Modern
Following the unprecedented success of RRR, which won an Oscar for Best Original Song (“Naatu Naatu”), Rajamouli’s next project has been the subject of feverish anticipation.
Sources suggest SSMB29 will explore “ancient legends hidden beneath the earth” and modern power struggles for mythical relics — blending realism, spirituality, and spectacle.
The director reportedly spent over two years developing the script alongside his father V. Vijayendra Prasad, ensuring the story remains “epic in scope but deeply emotional.”
⚡ Mahesh Babu: His Most Ambitious Role Yet
For Mahesh Babu, SSMB29 represents a career-defining transformation.
Known for his charismatic action roles, this film pushes him into uncharted physical and emotional territory.
“This isn’t just another adventure film. It’s a test of courage, belief, and human endurance,” Mahesh said in a recent interview. “Working with Rajamouli sir is a dream I’ve waited my entire career for.”
Sources reveal Mahesh underwent intensive wilderness survival and weapons training for the role, including sessions in Kenya and Jordan.
🎬 Priyanka Chopra Jonas Joins the Adventure
The addition of Priyanka Chopra Jonas has sent fans into overdrive.
She is said to play an archaeologist with ties to ancient Indian scripts, connecting the global narrative threads of the story.
“I’ve always admired Rajamouli’s storytelling — it’s rooted in culture but universal in emotion,” Priyanka shared on X. “This project bridges worlds — literally and cinematically.”
This marks her first Telugu-language project and a massive homecoming to Indian cinema.
🏆 A Historic November for Tollywood
With SSMB29’s teaser arriving November 15 — and Pushpa: The Rule promotions running simultaneously — analysts predict November 2025 could be Tollywood’s biggest global spotlight yet.
Streaming rights have reportedly sparked a bidding war, with Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Sony LIV vying for digital distribution.
