Priyanka Chopra's role in SSMB 29 was confirmed after she arrived in Hyderabad. Recently, photos of her with composer M.M. Keeravani and director S.S. Rajamouli have gone viral, further confirming her involvement in the project.
According to recent reports, Priyanka Chopra is expected to earn a massive ₹30 crore as her payment for the film.
