The much-talked-about film, SS Rajamouli’s Varanasi, is set to commence a new schedule of shooting on Thursday at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad. After taking a short two-week break, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, who plays a major role in the action adventure, has returned to India. She is expected to participate in an action sequence. According to reports, the team will be filming some intensely charged and emotionally heavy climax sequences over the next few days featuring Priyanka, Mahesh Babu, and Prithiviraj Sukumaran.
Varanasi, a hot topic
Varanasi has already been the hottest topic in the entertainment world. Earlier, the film faced a few controversies, right from objections to its title to debates sparked by Rajamouli’s comments related to Lord Hanuman. While the issues are still being debated and talked about, Rajamouli has turned his focus on the film. The filmmaker was supposed to fly to Japan (along with Prabhas) and promote Baahubali: The Epic release, but had to pull back because of the Varanasi shooting schedule clash with the trip.
Rajamouli working quietly
Meanwhile, the movie is creating massive buzz in the digital space. Some of the biggest OTT platforms in the country have reportedly approached the makers, showing strong interest in acquiring the streaming rights. The figures being discussed are said to be staggering, and insiders claim the quoted amount is so high that it might set a new record that will remain untouched for a long time.
Despite the hype, Rajamouli and his team are maintaining their trademark silence. The director is known for working quietly and letting his films speak. For Varanasi too, he seems to be employing a similar approach. Varanasi is scheduled to release in the summer of 2027, and the film is carrying humongous expectations. With the new schedule beginning, fans are eagerly waiting for more updates, and hoping to catch a BTS glimpse of the film.
