Rajamouli To Make Mahabharat Starring Rajinikanth, Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan

Hyderabad: Rajamouli's next big project - Mahabharat - is expected to have big names such as Rajinikanth, Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan.

Said to be a triology, the movie is likely to hit the floors in 2018. The director had also earlier expressed his concern about big stars working with him for 5 to 6 years without any other engagement. He said that it would be highly unlikely that any star would do so and had explained that he needed to create new stars for the film.

I am a huge fan of Rajamouli’s work and if he ever plans to make ‘Mahabharata’, I’d love to play Krishna or Karna. I might actually go with Krishna.

However, the director explains that with great stories come great responsibilities. The film is said to be made within a span of five to six years that would need actors dedicating a huge amount of time for the project. To be made on a budget of Rs 400 crore, this project is also said to have grand visuals at par with that of Baahubali.
