Directed by Rajamouli, Varanasi marks the first collaboration between Priyanka Chopra and Mahesh Babu. As per reports, the previous schedules of the film have already been shot across Africa and parts of India. The cast also features Prithviraj Sukumaran in a key role. Said to be a package of mythology and science fiction, Varanasi promises a visually stunning narrative.
As per reports, the film is mounted on a massive budget, and potentially surpasses Rajamouli’s blockbusters like Baahubali 2: The Conclusion and RRR. The makers are yet to release an official statement confirming the Antarctica schedule.
Varanasi is expected to release on April 7, 2027.
