SS Rajamouli is known for lending a larger-than-life touch to his stories. Now, the filmmaker is bringing his love for extravagance off screen too. Sources say that in the run-up to the release of RRR, the makers have lined up a grand event at Film City, Mumbai tomorrow. It is being touted as one of the biggest promotional events to be witnessed in Indian cinema.
A source close to the project reveals, "It will be a visual spectacle where the cast - including Ram Charan, Jr NTR, Ajay Devgn and Alia Bhatt - and the crew will come together. Each actor will make a grand entry at the do. With an expansive set in the making, the event's budget can rival that of a mid-sized film."
