While Baahubali has changed the fate of stars who have been associated with it by taking their fame globally, one amongst them is Rana Daggubati. The actor has also gained popularity as a Bollywood star and now he is all set for a film which will feature him as a scientist. Rana Daggubati is said to star in a period Bollywood film titled Vijli Mistery of the Phantom Ship based on the real life disappearance of the steamship SS Vaitarna which had over 700 people on board when the incident happened.
