A Confluence of Superstars – Rudra, Mandakini, and Kumbha
This is the first time Mahesh Babu and Rajamouli are working together. Mahesh Babu will play the lead role of “Rudra” in the film. He said it’s a “dream project” for him and that the entire nation will be proud of it. Meanwhile, global icon Priyanka Chopra Jonas is making a grand comeback to Indian cinema after 2021’s “The Sky Is Pink.” Her poster was also released, featuring her in the powerful role of “Mandakini” in a yellow saree, holding a pistol. Prithviraj Sukumaran, who plays the villain “Kumbha,” also stated that this is the most challenging role of his career.
Teaser Drives Fans Crazy
The film’s working title was originally “SSMB29,” but it has now officially become “Varanasi.” The teaser showed Mahesh Babu, covered in blood and carrying a trident, charging through the ancient temples of Kashi/Varanasi, riding a giant Nandi bull. The teaser made it clear that this film will not be just an action film, but a global adventure filled with elements of mythology and time-travel.
