His portrayal of Bhallaladeva in Baahubali is one of the most famous villains of Indian cinema and it has earned widespread recognition for its power, charisma, and emotional depth.

A return to a full-fledged antagonist role would once again allow Rana to show his skill as an actor to play an actor to be as good as he used to be again in the full-fledged villain role. He has long been a complex character actor and many fans have long admired him for his ability to present complex characters, and many believe Jai Hanuman could give him another unforgettable role to play.

Rishab Shetty is also expected to play Lord Hanuman as the title character in the film and Teja Sajja will likely play HanuMan again as the other two actors and as his character. With Rishab Shetty and Teja Sajja, the combination of the three actors has already become one of the hottest topics on social media with fans excited to see the scale of the action scenes and the clash between the protagonists and the antagonist.

Mythri Movie Makers are spending money in terms of visual effects, production design and big action scenes in order to present an eventful movie in multiple languages. With mythology still getting audiences’ attention in India, Jai Hanuman is high of demand for people.

Although the makers have yet to confirm Rana Daggubati’s involvement, the speculation has only helped to make people feel more excited about the project.

If Rana joins Jai Hanuman, then the movie would have one of the best star lineups for the most recent movies as well. His role as the main antagonist against Rishab Shetty and Teja Sajja in this film would strengthen the drama of the film and make it one of the biggest pan-India releases of 2027 and a significant hit for the genre in the pan-India market.

For now audiences will only have to wait for the filmmakers to confirm the casting of Rana Daggubati. But so far, the buzz of Rana Daggubati’s casting is still high as we can only hope that the film is there for us with a big-budget movie.
