Mahesh Babu is one of the biggest superstars in Telugu cinema, and he is set to make his pan Indian or perhaps even arguably pan world debut with his upcoming film under Rajamouli's direction.

Coming to the topic now, Mahesh is going to experience something that he had never experienced in the recent past.

For the first time in a long time, Mahesh is going to work with a director, whose legacy is bigger than his own. He will have to be fully committed to Rajamouli, who has his own reputation to live up to.

All the while, there were reports that the actor in Mahesh Babu was not getting utilised to the fullest by his directors. This could have partially been due to the fact that these directors are not quite on the same pedigree to extract the best of Mahesh.

It takes a certain Rajamouli to bring out the very best of Mahesh in terms of physicality and rugged performance. Rajamouli is a tough task Master himself, and he will not be satisfied with anything less than 100%.

There was once a time when Mahesh Babu used to be a breathtaking artist with a lot of fire. This was seen in films like Okkadu, Nijam, and others. But this gradually cooled down, and Mahesh got comfortable with one particular, kind of settled film making.

But with the film with Rajamouli virtually everything changes for Mahesh. He will have to surrender completely to the ace director and excel in every single department without any compromise.

This is more because of the fact that Rajamouli's legacy is far bigger than anyone, and everyone, and Mahesh will have to comply with the same in order to deliver what is expected. This is a good thing in every way as we could get to witness the fire in Mahesh all over again.
