25 Apr
Summary
- Priyanka Chopra and Mahesh Babu completed a demanding dance sequence.
- Priyanka's signing condition was a challenging, full-fledged dance number.
- The film 'Varanasi' is an epic inspired by the Ramayana.

Behind-the-scenes photos show Priyanka Chopra and Mahesh Babu finishing a dance sequence for SS Rajamouli's pan-India epic, 'Varanasi.' The pictures feature the actors with choreographer Bosco Martis, indicating the completion of a significant song.
Priyanka Chopra's participation was contingent on a full dance number, a condition she humorously recalled as more demanding than expected. Mahesh Babu, playing the lead Rudhra, also acknowledged the dance's challenging nature and its importance to the film.
The film, whose title was revealed in November 2025, marks the first on-screen pairing of Chopra and Babu. Its narrative is inspired by the Ramayana, with Rajamouli directly adapting an episode.
'Varanasi' is set to be one of India's most expensive films, with an estimated budget between Rs 1,000 crore and Rs 1,300 crore. The movie is scheduled for release on April 7, 2027. Prithviraj Sukumaran is cast as the antagonist.
