Despite not being prime time heroines, many senior actresses have rejected the role of Sivagami in the film. Guess what, who is the original choice for Sivagami role!
Actually Rajamouli is said to have approached Lakshmi Manchu to play the role of Sivagami. After she rejected it, he went to Sridevi and Tabu, and with no one agreeing he roped in Ramya Krishna. Talking about it, Lakshmi said, "I found it weird to play the role of Prabhas' mother, so I've rejected it".
Well, as an actor, one needs to play all roles, isn't it?
