And recently, even Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan also said he wants to produce and act in a film based on Mahabharata, which should be at par with Baahubali franchise or even better. Rumours were rife that the director, who has made no secret about his fetish for historical films, will be doing a film based on epic Mahabharata. Although he nurtures the ambition of doing this film on a scale never-seen-before, he feels that he is not ready to take up on the project yet. Recently talking to an entertainment website, Rajamouli revealed that he had discussed the film with Bollywood star Aamir Khan. I know that he’s very much interested in doing the film. The release of the film will mark the culmination of five years of dedication and hard work of the entire cast and crew. Mahabharata is definitely not after this,” he said, according to Bollywoodlife. Looks like Mahabharata is a dream project for every actor in India. 2017-04-16T11:47:14+00:00″>
