Varanasi : Mahesh Babu stars in SS Rajamouli’s next movie Varanasi, which is already generating news as a historic undertaking in Indian cinema. The movie will be officially announced during a big ceremony in Hyderabad in November 2025. It promises to be a mix of mythological grandeur, time-travel adventure, and a very spiritual story.
Mahesh Babu as Rudhra in A Mythic Explorer
Mahesh Babu’s character, Rudhra, is at the center of Varanasi, and fans were shocked by his initial look. He is seen with a trident and riding a bull that is charging at him. This is a symbolic reference to Nandi, Lord Shiva’s sacred bull.

Varanasi Time Travel
The teaser’s story that spans time is one of the most interesting parts of it. The story is said to take place in several different times, such as 512 CE, the Treta Yuga, and even before history began.
These temporal leaps suggest a mission that connects old tales to modern problems, maybe incorporating a magical herb or a holy quest.
A Big Production Varanasi
Rajamouli hasn’t held back on the show. The movie is being made for IMAX GT, which means that some scenes will be shot in a high-quality large format to make the scale come to life.
The stage for the Hyderabad event reproduced elements of Varanasi’s ghats, setting the spiritual tone right from the start.
