Prithviraj Sukumaran is a leading star in the Malayalam film industry. He made his Telugu debut in Prabhas' film "Salaar," where he portrayed Prabhas' friend.
However, his true story will be revealed in the second installment of "Salaar," set to be released in the coming years.
The actor can effortlessly play a lead hero, an offbeat character, or a friend's role like in "Salaar." Rajamouli, the top director of Indian cinema, was reportedly taken aback by Prithviraj Sukumaran’s versatility.
He is said to have approached Prithviraj for a crucial role in his next film, #SSMB29, starring Mahesh Babu as the lead hero. Filming will begin later this year.
Rajamouli, who is directing this global action-adventure thriller, has begun finalizing the cast for additional roles, with Prithviraj's name being considered.
The film will be produced on a large scale to appeal to a global audience. An Indonesian actress will star opposite Mahesh Babu.
