Vijayendra Prasad startling revelation about Varanasi

Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra's Varanasi directed by Rajamouli is racing for a grand release on 7 April 2027. Expectations are soaring on the film as it is Mahesh Babu-Rajamouli's first project and also Rajamouli's first after the sensation of RRR.

Now, Vijayendra Prasad who penned the story for the film, speaking to scribes, shared startling revelations. He said “It’s a war between Rama and Kumbhakarna.” He continued “You saw in the trailer, right? You saw Rama and Kumbhakarna. You saw Lord Hanuman’s tail and a chariot on it. I’m talking about that…spellbound. However, the writer clammed up before he could reveal much. When asked if the film has the concept of time zones and whose idea it was to include them, he said, “We shouldn’t talk about it anymore.”

Earlier Rajamouli said “On the first day, when Mahesh came in Lord Rama’s get-up for the photoshoot, I had goosebumps. I was torn. Mahesh has the charm of Krishna, but the calmness of Rama. Still, I was confident. I even set that photo as my wallpaper and then removed it so that no one would see it,”

He shared “We shot this sequence for 60 days, and we completed it recently. Every single day was a challenge. Every episode and sub-episode felt like a film in itself; everything had to be reimagined and planned from scratch. After crossing all those hurdles, we finally wrapped the sequence. I believe it will be one of the most memorable sequences in my films and in Mahesh’s films as well.”
