After completing a brief shooting schedule in Kenya, Mahesh Babu and S S Rajamouli returned to Hyderabad and are now preparing for the next filming schedule locally.
Meanwhile, the latest social media buzz suggests that Rajamouli’s team has recently finalized a major deal with a Hollywood studio.
According to reports, Warner Bros has signed on to distribute the film, tentatively titled “GlobeTrotter”, worldwide — except in India.
The Hollywood giant is expected to handle the film’s marketing in key international markets, including the USA, and provide substantial support to ensure global exposure.
If confirmed, Rajamouli will be required to submit all promotional materials to the Hollywood studio months in advance, along with a fully finished film at least three months prior to release.
This represents a significant departure from the typical Telugu film production model, where censor clearance is often sought just a week before release.
Hollywood studios usually complete all formalities a month in advance and organize press shows, distributor screenings, and other promotional activities.
How Rajamouli will manage this structured and tight schedule remains to be seen, making it a big challenge for the acclaimed filmmaker.
