Exclusive: British actress finalized for NTR in RRR

We were the first report that British actress Daisy Jones was cast opposite NTR in Rajamouli’s mega epic film ‘RRR’. But she later opted out of the project. It has been three months since she walked out of this movie and still there is no news about her replacement.
 
And here is the update. Our sources have informed that Rajamouli has finally signed another British actress. She will be joining the shoot in October. Rajamouli informed his team not to reveal her name. He wants to announce it with a bang. 
 
As per the story, the film requires a foreign actress as jodi for NTR who is playing the role of Komaram Bheem, a freedom warrior from the Telangana region. Ram Charan, on the other hand, has Alia Bhatt as the jodi. Ram Charan is playing the role of a famous freedom warrior of Telugu land Alluri Seetha Rama Raju. Though the characters that NTR and Ram Charan playing are legendary persons, the tale is fictional. In real life, Alluri Seetha Rama Raju and Komaram Bheem never met each other. It is Rajamouli’s idea to weave a story of friendship between two warriors of Telugu land. 
 
The other interesting update is that NTR is leaving for Bulgaria this month end to can some important scenes there. ‘RRR’ is produced by DVV Danayya and it is the next big project from Rajamouli after ‘Baahubali’ movies.
