This is the reason SS Rajamouli gave for not working with Pawan Kalyan

SS Rajamouli, one of the most popular directors of the country, well known for Baahubali series, has been quite busy lately with promotions of his upcoming movie RRR that is scheduled to hit theatres in January next year.

In a recent media interaction, Rajamouli answered all the questions of media and fans elaborately. He was questioned on multitudinous aspects that included his professional relationship with the power star Pawan Kalyan. On being questioned about directing the power star in any of his movies, Rajamouli said that he has always ‘loved Pawan Kalyan.’

The super hit director went a bit further on the topic and also explained why and how things did not materialise between the two. According to him the main reason was the ‘divergence of interest’ of the two. He said that in the initial days of their careers he had always wanted to direct Pawan Kalyan, he also said that the two of them had short conversations regarding the same topic, whenever he mentioned working together to the power star.

Rajamouli stated that eventually in his career he decided to push himself as a director and thought to get out of his comfort zone and make movies that not only gave the audience masala entertainment but much more. The director further went on to say that it was during that time Pawan Kalyan diverted his attention to his political career and focused on his political interests. Hence, like their interests and priorities their paths diverged too.

Currently the movie goers of the country are eagerly waiting for the release of the upcoming project by SS Rajamouli, RRR that is a majestic multi-starrer, featuring Ram Charan and Junior NTR from Telugu industry and Alia Bhatt and Ajay Devgan from the Hindi Film industry.

On the other hand the power star Pawan Kalyan is busy winding up his upcoming project Bheemla Nayak starring Rana Daggubati and Nithya Menon and directed by Saagar K. Chandra.
