Mahesh Babu to Shoot SSMB29 Scenes in Odisha!

According to a report by Tupaki, after completing the first schedule of SSMB29, the team is prepping for the second schedule. The second schedule will likely start next week and the team is making the arrangements for the same. Amid this, reports have surfaced that Rajamouli will shoot a part of the Jungle adventure in the famous Eastern Ghats of Odisha.

The report suggests that Rajamouli feels that the true essence of the forest backdrop can only be extracted in real locations of Odisha's Eastern Ghats. Thus, the team is planning the schedule accordingly.

Further, the report also suggests that Tollywood Prince Mahesh Babu along with several other actors associated with the scenes will shoot in this schedule.

As SSMB29 is an action-adventure with a forest backdrop, it can be expected that Rajamouli will shoot a major portion with the real-life forest backdrop.

While traditionally South movies are primarily shot in the Western Ghats in Kerala and Karnataka, several makers are now opting to shoot in different locations of Odisha. Notably, a few scenes of Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2: The Rule were also shot in Swabhiman Anchal in Odisha's Malkangiri district. Pushpa 2 makers chose the erstwhile Maoist bastion in Odisha for shooting.
