The highly anticipated film #SSMB28 starring Mahesh Babu and directed by Trivikram is set to begin production on January 18th. The film, originally set to begin with an action scene, underwent a change in direction after initial shooting was halted due to dissatisfaction from Babu. The script was re-written to focus less on action and more on family themes.

Famed fight choreographers Ram-Laxman have been brought on to compose the fight sequences for the film, which is expected to last for over two weeks. Shooting will take place at a studio in Hyderabad.

The film also stars actresses Pooja Hegde and Sreeleela and will feature music composed by Thaman. It is being produced by S Radha Krishna. The team will be finishing the shoot in a less time to meet the deadline of the release date.
