Stories don't fall from the sky. Every story is an inspiration for somewhere or someone. Most of the scenes in Rajamouli's films are inspired by old movies or our history or some stories in our society. He cleverly includes them in his films with the right amount of drama and emotion.
His upcoming film 'RRR' is also inspired by the real life freedom fighters Alluri Seetharamaraju and Komaram Bheem. But it is not a biopic as Rajamouli took those characters and wrote a story on fictional grounds of what would happen if they meet and fight together against the British rule.
Taking rea life characters or characters from our history and writing own stories is not a new thing. It has been done in many old films like 'Rama Anjaneya Yuddham', 'Maya Bazaar' and others. There is no proof that Krishna and Arjun fought with each other as they are regarded as very close. But 'Krishna Arjuna Yuddham' is a film based on the thought of what would happen if they fought each other. The same is the case of 'Rama Anjaneya Yuddham'. This is what Rajamouli is following now for 'RRR'.
