Now, at a recent event, Rajamouli talked about his dream project, and hold your breath before we speak that out loud. It is Mahabharat. The director has been multiple times associated with the project but he never denied or agreed to be working on the same. But, during a recent conversation, the filmmaker called Mahabharata his dream project and talked about how he plans to turn his vision into reality.

The Baahubali director confessed that Mahabharat indeed is his ultimate goal. “If I get to the point of making Mahabharat, it would take me a year just to read the versions of Mahabharat that are available in the country. At present, I can only assume that it would be a 10-part film”, quoted India Today.

SS Rajamouli even called all his films, inspired loosely by the Hindu mythological epic, and said, “Every film I make, I feel that I’m learning something to ultimately make Mahabharat. So that’s my dream and every step is towards that.”

Interestingly, Rajamouli took inspiration for his RRR characters from the Hindu mythological epics Ramayana and Mahabharata. While Ram Charan Teja’s character was inspired by Ram of Ramayana, Jr NTR’s character was loosely inspired by Bheema of Mahabharat. It is rumoured that his next with Mahesh Babu will also have his lead character based on Hanuman.
