Ace filmmaker SS Rajamouli not acting in 'Baahubali'

Chennai: Ace Telugu filmmaker S S Rajamouli has rubbished rumours that he is acting in his upcoming directorial venture 'Baahubali', a period-drama.

"I am not acting in 'Baahubali'. The picture which is making rounds is three years old. I got my beard done in that style just for fun," posted Rajamouli on his Twitter page.

The lead cast, which includes Rana Daggubati and Prabhas, are sporting a full grown beard for the film. So, when Rajamouli also sported a similar look recently, it was assumed that he is making a cameo in the movie.

This high-budget film also features Anushka Shetty, Sathyaraj, Adivi Sesh and Kiccha Sudeep in important roles. It is being jointly produced by Shobu Yarlagadda, Prasad Devineni and K Raghavendra Rao.
