This would be a terrific casting, if true. If reports are to be believed, then Ajay Devgn would be playing a cameo in SS Rajamouli's next. SS Rajamouli had caught the fancy of the nation by making two of the biggest Indian movies in Baahubali series. Baahubali 2 aka Baahubali: The Conclusion is considered the highest grossing movie in India and the first Indian movie to gross more than Rs 100 crore worldwide. So it's natural that Bollywood actors would like to work with this maverick film-maker and it looks like Ajay Devgn gets to play the ball here. Koffee With Karan 6: Ajay Devgn Wins The Lavish Audi A5 Car For Giving Answer of the Season on Karan Johar's Chat Show.
