Composer MM Keeravani is basking in the global success of RRR. He created history when he bagged a Golden Globe and an Oscar for his dance number Naatu Naatu which he composed for RRR. Now, he's again set to collaborate with his cousin and RRR director SS Rajamluli. While talking about the upcoming project, which is tentatively called SSMB, he dropped a major hint about it. 

"My upcoming project is with Rajamouli again with one more superstar from India, Mahesh Babu. It's a forest adventure," he said. 

Keeravani's hint about the much-awaited project has everyone wondering weather Mahesh will play a Tarzan-like character in the movie. While Keeravani called SSMB29, a "forest adventure", earlier Rajamouli had described it as “a globetrotting action-adventure film”. According to several reports, Rajamouli is planning to shoot this movie across Africa. And all the little revelations from the cast and crew are adding to the excitmenet around the project. 

With RRR becoming a global hit, the market for Rajamouli's film has grown exceptionally. RRR's global popularity received a massive boost when the film's Hindi version was made available for streaming on Netflix. And later the film was also released in cinemas across America and it found a lot of takers among non-Indian audiences. The who's who of Hollywood also joined the others to celebrate the film, which culminated with RRR winning the Oscars. 

RRR's Oscar campaign delayed Rajamouli from starting his movie with Mahesh. Since last year, Rajamouli has been very busy engaging the media and the fans in the west to increase the odds of the film winning the Oscars. And his efforts paid off

Rajamouli will soon start the production of SSMB29. In the meantime, Mahesh is hooting for director Trivikram Srinivas's next. And he's also in the process of getting shredded presumably for his character in Rajamouli's film.
