Superstar Mahesh Babu, currently on a well-deserved vacation with his family, recently made headlines when he humorously showcased his passport to the paparazzi, hinting that he had gotten it back from director S.S. Rajamouli. This playful moment has stirred a buzz, as Rajamouli is known for his strict protocols, often limiting public appearances of his actors while they are working on his films. However, Mahesh Babu has been an exception to this rule, with Rajamouli seemingly loosening these restrictions for the star.

Despite the regular leaks of photos and videos from the sets of their collaboration, Rajamouli has allowed Mahesh Babu more freedom, a rare exception given the director’s usual approach with his other actors. It is also noteworthy that Mahesh’s vacation coincides with Rajamouli’s own travels. The director is currently promoting his acclaimed film RRR in Japan, accompanied by his wife Rama Rajamouli and son Karthikeya. The trio engaged with Japanese fans, shared behind-the-scenes moments from the making of RRR, and previewed what audiences can expect from the documentary Behind & Beyond.

With Rajamouli focusing on the international promotion of RRR and taking time off from the production of SSMB29, it appears Mahesh Babu made a genuine request for some personal time, which was kindly granted. This mutually respectful understanding between the two stars reflects their strong professional bond and shared commitment to the success of their collaborative efforts.
