Rumours about director SS Rajamouli's much-awaited film RRR, starring Jr NTR and Ram Charan, refuse to die down. Ever since the director made an announcement on Twitter, there has been speculation about the film's story, genre and so on. For the past few days, there have been constant stories doing the rounds that the film is based on a rebirth concept, on the lines of the Baahubali director's earlier films, Magadheera and Eega

However, the film's producer, Danayya, clarifies that these reports are "completely untrue. We haven't locked the script yet. It’s too early to reveal anything about the film and a clear picture will emerge in a month’s time." 

The pre-production of the film is going on at a brisk pace and the art department is said to be constructing massive sets at Kokapet. Amid speculations that several top stars from other industries were approached for pivotal roles in the film, Danayya sets the record straight and explains, "Except for Charan and NTR, we haven’t finalised the actors for the other characters, nor has the budget been decided yet. The filming will commence in October and we are planning to release the film in the Summer of 2020."
