Director Playing football with Prabhas !!

S S Rajamouli happens to be a superstar director, but even he tends to draw inspiration from other blockbusters. That happened many a times and here is the latest report about it.

Obviously, S S Rajamouli's 'Sye' is an true inspiration from Amir Khan and Ashutosh Gowariker's 'Lagaan' movie. In that superhit Hindi flick, they play cricket to settle the tax issue, while in 'Sye' they play rugby to settle playground issue. Wide discussions are happening in Film Nagar now that Rajamouli is gearing ahead to draw inspiration from another hindi flick now. It happens to be blockbuster movie 'Chak De' that highlights the need to stay united for Indians. However the central theme of this hair rising flick is Hockey game, while Rajamouli has chosen Foot Ball, say sources.

Most surprising thing is that this 'foot ball film' happens to be the film he is going to make with Prabhas, but not a period flick as in publicity. Maybe it is for this reason Prabhas is heard practising foot ball from a couple of weeks to get the moves and kicks right. Let us wait for some official news.
