Ever since the sensation of Rajamouli's Baahubali, many went crazy when the ace director revealed that his dream project was Mahabharat.
Rumors spread that Rajamouli's next would be Mahabharat and even speculation increased about the cast and crew. The names of Amitabh Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan, Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Deepika Padukone, Mahesh Babu, NTR, Rana and Prabhas did rounds.
But Rajamouli put an end to these rumors saying he may think about the project in future and added no star would allocate bulk dates for 4-5 years for Mahabharat.
When everyone forgot about it, Bollywood once again started talking about Rajamouli's Mahabharat and reports came out that he is planning Mahabharat with Amitabh Bachchan and Mahesh Babu and is zeroing in on the other top stars from Indian film industry.
But others say this is diversionary tactic by other Tollywood stars who are of the media attention following Prabhas' Saaho blitz and then Mega Star Chiranjeevi's Sye Raa trending online.
