Mahesh Babu and Rajamouli’s much-awaited film is once again making headlines with strong buzz that the title could be Varanasi. Over the past months, many titles have been rumored and this is the latest to catch attention.
The film was initially thought to be a jungle adventure but speculation grew after Rajamouli shared a poster showing Mahesh with symbols linked to Lord Shiva, such as Nandi, Trishul and Damarukam. This hinted that the film may carry spiritual or mythological elements.
Few sources suggest that an official announcement of the title might come on November 16th though Rajamouli’s team has not confirmed it.
Meanwhile reports reveal that the film includes a folk style song featuring Mahesh and Priyanka Chopra, composed by MM Keeravani.
If Varanasi is finalized the film could mark a new phase in Jakkanna’s storytelling, blending adventure, divinity and global appeal.
