The moment the ‘Mirai’ trailer hit the screens, a wave of excitement, and a little mystery, washed over social media. Viewers were quick to spot a dramatic final scene. There, in all his glory, was Lord Ram. But a big question followed: Who was bringing this revered figure to life?
Fans quickly pointed to one name: superstar Mahesh Babu. The rumor mill started churning fast, becoming a top trend. It wasn’t entirely surprising. Mahesh Babu has often been linked to grand mythological roles. There were whispers he’d play Lord Krishna in the film ‘Kalki’, though that turned out to be false. Then came talk of a special appearance in his nephew Ashok Galla’s movie, ‘Devakinandan Vasudev’, which also didn’t happen. So, when the ‘Mirai’ trailer appeared, the buzz about Mahesh Babu taking on a divine role flared up once more.
The team behind ‘Mirai’ knew they had to clear the air. It was time for a direct answer.
The Truth About Lord Ram in ‘Mirai’
During the film’s promotions, Teja Sajja, the lead actor of ‘Mirai’, finally spoke up. He put all the rumors to rest with a straightforward statement.
“The Lord Ram avatar you see in the film is not Mahesh Babu,” Teja Sajja explained. He revealed a fascinating detail. “This character was created entirely using Artificial Intelligence.” That’s quite a twist, isn’t it?
