When asked about the film, Rajamouli said, “This will be a fictional story on the lives of Alluri Sitarama Raju and Komaram Bheem. There are gaps in the lives of these legendary freedom fighters that we don’t know about. We don’t know what happened in their lives in these years. It is through this fictional story we’d like to show what could have happened in their lives and what would have happened if they met and bonded.”

Ajay Devgn, Alia Bhatt and Samuthirakani are also roped in to perform crucial roles in the film. Alia will be seen pairing with Ram Charan. 'RRR' is scheduled to release worldwide in 10 Indian languages on July 30, 2020.
