On the professional front, Ram Charan will be next seen in SS Rajamouli's period drama RRR, which also stars Jr NTR, Alia Bhatt, Ajay Devgn, Shriya Saran and Olivia Morris in key roles. The period drama is being made on an insane budget of Rs. 350 crore. The magnum opus has already started setting benchmarks as it broke the pre-release business of India's biggest blockbuster, Baahubali 2 (also directed by SS Rajamouli) by a huge margin. All the rights of the film have been bought at record prices and reports suggest that it has already earned over Rs. 400 crore from South India and overseas markets alone.

The film, which was scheduled to release in July was pushed to January 2021 and now the filmmaker has confirmed that it has been postponed due to the global crisis of coronavirus. In a webinar conducted by Film Companion, SS Rajamouli said that they will reschedule the release of Ram Charan and Jr NTR starrer once the core team meets and review the situation.
