Telugu filmmaker SS Rajamouli is all set to break his own record with his upcoming film RRR. According to reports, RRR has broken the pre-release business record of his previous film Baahubali: The Conclusion.
Critic and trade analyst Ramesh Bala tweeted that the film pre-release business could cross Rs 400 crore from south India and overseas alone. Considering national appeal of the Baahubali films, RRR makers are also eyeing yet another hit in other parts of India too.
