Whatever Rajamouli does is always sensational, and the same is going to happen with his new film featuring Mahesh Babu as the main lead. Already, three schedules of the film have been wrapped up, and the team will head to Kenya for a lengthy, action-packed schedule.
Rajamouli and his team met the Kenyan ministers the other day, ahead of procuring the necessary permissions to shoot the film in Kenya. A small video of the same has gone viral, where Rajamouli is asked by the minister about the film and its storyline. Though the makers have cut that part, the news is that #SSMB29 will be a two-part film and will be made on a massive scale.

Some time back, news came out that the film would not be a two-part project and that Rajamouli was making it as a standalone project. But the Kenyan media, The Star, in its coverage about Rajamouli and the film, confirmed that the biggie will indeed be released in two parts.
