Renowned filmmaker SS Rajamouli is currently working on his highly anticipated movie SSMB29, which stars Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu. The film’s pre-production is underway, with shooting expected to start in January 2025. Originally, production was set to begin in September 2023 but was later postponed. Amid these preparations, Rajamouli made a special appearance in a promotional video for Mathu Vadalara 2, where an amusing moment has caught the attention of fans.
In the viral video, Rajamouli was asked about an update on his upcoming project with Mahesh Babu. In response, he humorously picked up a bamboo stick (balli) and walked away, leaving fans laughing and eagerly awaiting more news about the film. The lighthearted video is trending on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), where fans are enthusiastically discussing the moment.
Mathu Vadalara 2 Promo Video: A Fun Collaboration
The promo video for Mathu Vadalara 2 features both SS Rajamouli and his son SS Karthikeya. The video was designed to generate excitement for the Telugu crime-comedy sequel, which is scheduled to release in theaters on September 13, 2024. The original Mathu Vadalara became a fan favorite in 2019, and the sequel stars actors Sri Simha and Satya, returning to entertain audiences once again.
In the video, when Rajamouli is asked for updates on SSMB29, he playfully dodges the question by picking up the bamboo stick and walking off screen. Fans found this gesture hilarious, with some humorously urging him to announce the release date soon. Others expressed their excitement for the film’s production.

In an interesting twist, Rajamouli has placed strict conditions on Mahesh Babu during the production of SSMB29.
