Actress Priyanka Chopra has been the subject of much speculation regarding her return to Indian cinema, particularly with SS Rajamouli’s highly anticipated film, SSMB29. While fans have been eagerly awaiting confirmation, Priyanka’s mother, Madhu Chopra, recently set the record straight in an interview with Lehren Retro.
Madhu Chopra Confirms Priyanka’s Involvement in SSMB29
When asked about the ongoing rumours surrounding Priyanka’s casting in SSMB29, Madhu Chopra subtly confirmed her daughter’s participation, stating, “Vahin shooting pe hain voh” (She is shooting the film). She also nodded affirmatively when the interviewer mentioned that Priyanka is currently in Hyderabad for the shoot, putting an end to the speculation.
Priyanka’s Hints Spark Excitement Among Fans
The confirmation comes just days after Priyanka hinted at her involvement in SSMB29. Fans began buzzing when she shared a video of her journey from Toronto to Hyderabad, accompanied by the song Roar of RRR. Upon her arrival in Hyderabad, Priyanka shared pictures from a visit to the Chilkur Balaji Temple in Telangana, further fueling the excitement.
Although her posts suggested she was in Hyderabad to begin filming for SSMB29, neither Priyanka nor the makers of the film had officially confirmed her involvement until now.
SSMB29: What We Know So Far
Details surrounding SSMB29 remain tightly under wraps. Directed by SS Rajamouli, the film is said to be an action-adventure film, with influences from Indiana Jones. The story has been penned by Rajamouli’s father, writer Vijayendra Prasad. The film was officially launched in January with a pooja ceremony in Hyderabad, but the makers have kept Mahesh Babu’s look under strict secrecy, refraining from releasing any pictures from the event.
Fans are eagerly awaiting more updates as filming continues, with Priyanka Chopra now officially part of this exciting project.
