SS Rajamouli is the biggest deal in Indian cinema as no other hero or director can be firmly marketed as a 1000 crore puller like Rajamouli.
It is known that Rajamouli is working with Mahesh for his next project and this might commence the filming next year. It could realistically be released in theaters only towards the end of 2027 if not later, considering Rajamouli's work rate.

Coming to the topic now, there is an ongoing discussion on the social media space about who will set the next big target for the SSR-SSMB project now.
While the mega success of Baahubali 2 - Rs 1600+ crore worldwide gross stands tall, which film will come closer to this by the time Rajamouli comes with Mahesh Babu's film?

There is Pushpa 2 which is arriving this December 5th and then we have Spirit with Prabhas and Sandeep Vanga. There is also Kalki 2 which might have a real shot at the Rs 1000+ crore mark and has a realistic chance of setting a target for the SSR-SSMB project. There's Bollywood's Ramayan with Ranbir Kapoor as well.
For now, the 1000 crore mark is a bare minimum target for Rajamouli's film with Mahesh and in between, if any biggie can touch the Rs 1200 or 1300 crore mark, then this could be considered the target for Rajamouli to break.
