Sources reveal that out of the 10 scripts, Vijayendra Prasad has written two scripts for his son, SS Rajamouli one of them being a period drama and the other one being a modern-day thriller. While Rajamouli is currently busy with the work on his next film starring Jr. NTR and Ram Charan in lead, sources confirm that he would soon take a call on the upcoming directorial ventures and collaborate with Eros for the first time. “As SS Rajamouli has become a brand for the Hindi film audience, his film with Eros would be a bilingual project, however it is too early to get into the details of the film,” concluded the source.
