The actor's upcoming bilingual will be converted into the format When
Magadheera director SS Rajamouli and his entourage rolled into the city to promote his upcoming flick, which stars Kiccha Sudeep, the filmmaker had a lot to say about working with the actor. But what caught everyone's attention at the do was his announcement that the film, which sees Sudeep play a villain, will get a 3D release at the end of the year.
'Conversion of a 2D film into 3D is normally not recommended. But in our film, the main character is a CG-created fly, which is already in 3D. We have converted a few scenes and these are the best 3D scenes I have ever seen. Hence, I am confident that the entire film can be converted,' said Rajamouli.
The 3D version, added the filmmaker, will mark the film's B-town outing and will be released in December. And while his new film is still top priority, Rajamouli has already decided what he wants to do in the near future, or perhaps even next.
The director, who spoke at length about his Karnataka connection ' having lived here in his early childhood ' in broken Kannada, was anticipating a question about whether he would direct a Kannada film. 'I want to direct a Kannada film. In fact, I have a subject in mind ' a magnum opus about Sri Krishnadevaraya, who ruled the Suvarnabhoomi Vijaynagar empire in the 16th century,' he said.
