About Varanasi

Varanasi is a Telugu time travel adventure drama helmed by SS Rajamouli, who has also co-written the film with V Vijayendra Prasad and SS Kanchi. The film is produced by Sri Durga Arts and Showing Business, and is believed to be made on a massive budget of Rs 1,200 crore.

While Mahesh Babu is expected to portray two roles as bounty hunter Rudhra and Lord Rama, Priyanka Chopra will be seen as Mandakini. Meanwhile, Prithviraj Sukumaran will be seen playing the role of Kumbha. The makers had earlier dropped the first look posters of the characters, in which Prithviraj is seen confined to a wheelchair, seemingly physically disabled, yet fierce as an antagonist. Similarly, Priyanka Chopra was seen performing an action sequence with a gun in her hand wearing a yellow saree.
