Director SS Rajamouli's next project is all set for landing. The Telugu period action film "Rise Roar Revolt", dubbed RRR, will hit theatres on October 13, the makers announced on Monday.

Starring N T Rama Rao Jr and Ram Charan in the lead roles, the movie is directed by Rajamouli of "Baahubali" fame. "RRR" also features Bollywood actors Ajay Devgn and Alia Bhatt in pivotal roles.

The release date of the Telugu language movie was announced on the official Twitter page of the film.
