Cinematographer KK Senthil Kumar, who worked on 'Eega' along with Rajamouli, spoke in detail about how they made a perfect protagonist out of a fly. Speaking to Media portal, Senthil said he, along with Rajamouli and the team of Eega studied flies. "When we were doing research for this film, we caught so many flies. While studying them, we found out that if we expose them to cold temperatures, they become unconscious for some time, maybe 2–3 minutes. We used to take flies and do micro photography and when we saw it, it was very, very ugly," Sethil said. Eega tells the story of a youngster (Nani) who gets murdered by a gangster (Sudeep) who wishes to get close to his girlfriend (Samantha). The youth gets reborn as a housefly (Eega), and avenging his death. Produced jointly by Sai Korrapati and D Suresh Babu, the film was released in 2012, and it was a blockbuster. On the work front, SS Rajamouli is working on SSMB 29, which will hit the screens in 2027, is said to be a single-part film. The globe-trotting adventure, which features Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra-Jonas and Prithviraj Sukumaran, will reportedly be Rajamouli’s longest film. A report read that "Rajamouli, who isn’t a big fan of how the two-partner system is now mostly being used for merely financial gains and not because the story demanded it, is “restructuring the screenplay in a single-part storytelling format.”
