Priyanka Chopra Jonas’ 44th birthday brought a proud look at S.S. Rajamouli’s ambitious epic Varanasi.

Directed by the film's hit director S.S. Rajamouli, Varanasi is one of the most eagerly awaited Indian movies in production and is due to be released on an international release date of April 7, 2027. Mahesh Babu plays Rudhra as the lead and Prithviraj Sukumaran plays the villain Kumbha, and all three actors are expected to play a great three-dimensional and big.

Varanasi is shot around the world, according to its makers, including Antarctica, Africa, and a fully reconstructed version of the ancient city of Varanasi. The movie is based on mythology, ancient artifacts, and time-hopping trips of its characters through time. Part of the film has been shot in real wildlife in Kenya’s Maasai Mara, which is very different from what we have seen in Indian movies.

The film also brings Rajamouli back together with Oscar-winning composer M.M. Keeravani, whose music was instrumental to RRR's global success. We look forward to more unforgettable music that is very much in line with the film’s grand visuals and emotional story.

On Priyanka’s birthday, her co-stars paid tributes in the film’s studio. Mahesh Babu wrote his thanks to her for being so dedicated and Prithviraj Sukumaran said that working with her was a very memorable experience for him. Rajamouli also said that Priyanka has great strength and vulnerability in her performance and that Mandakini is a complex woman who requires emotional depth and determination—qualities which Priyanka brings easily to the screen.

The first-look poster received an overwhelmingly good reception from fans who praised Priyanka’s tough face, elegant costume design, and great aura. The actress’ portrayal of Mandakini could go down in history as one of her most defining performances.

Varanasi is going to be one of the biggest Indian movies of 2027 with a star-studded cast, a global story arc, stunning visuals, and Rajamouli’s signature storytelling. The first glimpse has only heightened the expectation and there are already folks waiting for the film’s official teaser and for the movie to open on the screens.
