In fact many are curious to know about what does SS stand for in Rajamouli's initials. Rajamoulli's father name is V Vijayendra Prasad so this means Rajamouli's surname should start with V and not S.

It seems Rajamouli's parents used to visit any one of the Jyothirlingalu for every Sivarathri. One day, when Rajamouli's mother was in Srisailam for Sivarathri, in her dream, she saw a Swamiji, who kept a baby boy in her lap. When she returned back from Srisailam, she gave birth to Rajamouli. Then she named her baby boy as Srisaila Sri Rajamouli – his full name. So Srisaila Sri Rajamouli is his name and SS is not his surname.
