It is Rajamouli who opened the doors to Telugu cinema on an international platform. Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny is hitting screens this week and ahead of the release, Rajamouli shared his excitement about the film that inspired him.

Bringing vivid characters to life in adventurous titles such as Baahubali, RRR, and Magadheera, Rajamouli has truly mastered the craft of adventure films, and what could be a better treat for us viewers, than a film heavily inspired by Indiana Jones, living and breathing in an Indian story?
