SS Rajamouli's Eega was a groundbreaking film that catapulted him into the Hindi cinema spotlight. The movie, released in Hindi, garnered widespread critical acclaim and was a major success. This success paved the way for Rajamouli’s ambitious Baahubali franchise. Despite the film's success and the ongoing discussions about a sequel, recent statements from actor Nani, who starred in the original, suggest that he might not be part of the anticipated Eega 2.

Nani humorously revealed that while he had inquired about the potential sequel to Eega, Rajamouli indicated that even if the sequel were made, his involvement might not be necessary. Given that the original film’s storyline involved Nani's character's demise and focused on the fly’s journey, a sequel would likely require a completely new narrative approach. This creative shift could mean that Nani’s role in the sequel might be unlikely, given the logical progression of the story.

As Nani promotes his upcoming film Saripodha Sanivaram, he praised Rajamouli for his bold vision and his success in elevating Indian cinema to a pan-Indian level. Meanwhile, Rajamouli is gearing up for his next major project, which is set to feature Superstar Mahesh Babu. This move marks another ambitious step in Rajamouli’s career, further demonstrating his penchant for grand, innovative storytelling.
