Alia Bhatt as Sita in SS Rajamouli’s RRR has to be one of her most ambitious and roles of her career. The actress is taking up parts that are not only defined by grit but grandeur too. After introducing us to the part-fictional, part-real world of Kamathipura in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Gangubai Kathiawadi, she has shared the look of her character from the aforementioned Rajamouli magnum opus.

RRR also stars Ram Charan, Junior NTR, and Ajay Devgn in crucial roles and is expected to open in the cinemas on October 13. Set in the early 20th century, the film tells the tale of Alluri Sitarama Raju, played by Charan, and Komaram Bheem, essayed by Rao Jr, who fought against the British Raj and the Nizam of Hyderabad. Bhatt plays the love interest of the revolutionary, Raju.
Shooting for the film got stalled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent lockdown. Alia had only one scene remaining when the pandemic forced the makers to call time on the project. Shooting for the film began after the government relaxed lockdown restrictions.
A source told mid-day last year in December, “Alia had only one scene remaining when the pandemic forced the makers to call time on the project in March. Come the first week of November, she will shoot a major confrontation scene with NT Rama Rao Jr and Ram Charan. The sequence sees the character of Bheem — who had coined the slogan 'Jal, jangal, zameen', thus asserting that people who live in the forest should have a right to its natural resources — having an ideological clash with Sitarama Raju and Alia's character. The scene was to be shot at a bungalow in Pune, but the plan has been changed post the pandemic."
