Hyderabad/IBNS: Riding on the unprecedented global success of Baahubali and RRR, filmmaker S. S. Rajamouli is gearing up for his next ambitious project, Varanasi, an action-adventure spectacle that is already generating significant global buzz.

Star-Studded Cast Fuels Anticipation

Headlined by Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and Prithviraj Sukumaran, Varanasi has emerged as one of the most anticipated Indian films in recent times.

Global Push at Comic Con Experience Mexico 2026

Taking the film to international audiences, Varanasi will be showcased at Comic Con Experience Mexico 2026 through an exclusive panel on April 24 at the Thunder Stage.

Producer S. S. Karthikeya will present a special segment titled “Varanasi to the World,” offering a glimpse into the making of the film.

The session will include an exclusive video message from Rajamouli, along with never-before-seen behind-the-scenes footage, and conclude with a live fan interaction.

Strong Early Global Response

Even before its theatrical release, Varanasi has begun making waves internationally.

Its first glimpse was unveiled at the Trailer Festival at Le Grand Rex, Europe’s largest iconic screen, where it received an electrifying response from audiences.

First Looks Trigger Social Media Frenzy

The makers have already revealed striking first looks of the lead characters—Mahesh Babu as Rudhra, Prithviraj Sukumaran as Kumbha, and Priyanka Chopra Jonas as Mandakini—sparking widespread buzz across social media platforms.

Grand Release Planned for 2027

Varanasi is slated for a massive theatrical release on April 7, 2027.
