It is well aware that Prabhas is playing the hero under the direction of dynamic director SS Rajamouli and the hero ignored many of his film chances awaiting for this film alone. Finally, the regular shooting of the film is getting ready to start. Now the audiences are eagerly waiting as to who would be the heroine and villain. After they come to know that Anushka is playing the heroine, the media started giving hint that Rana Daggubati would play the heroine. While some quash them as gossips, some believed it. Finally Rajamouli himself declared that after a series of discussions Rana had accepted to play the role. Of course, the role is the brother of the hero, who turns villain later. Another interesting feature is that Sabu Siril is working as the art director. He bagged the national-level awards for four times. The film would go to sets very soon.
