Mahesh Babu’s Varanasi is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated Indian films currently in production. While fans are eagerly awaiting an official update ahead of the superstar’s birthday, another leak from the film’s sets has surfaced online, grabbing attention on social media.
A behind-the-scenes video, reportedly around 25 seconds long, has gone viral across multiple platforms. Although the makers acted swiftly by initiating copyright action to remove the clip, it had already spread widely by then.
The latest leak has once again raised concerns among fans, with many urging the team to tighten security on the sets and prevent such incidents in the future. Despite these setbacks, the excitement surrounding the film remains intact, with fans hoping to receive an official birthday treat from the makers.
Meanwhile, the film’s new shooting schedule is set to commence today at Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad. Directed by SS Rajamouli, the globe-trotting action adventure stars Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Prithviraj Sukumaran in pivotal roles.
Produced by K.L. Narayana, with S.S. Karthikeya associated with the project, the film has music composed by M.M. Keeravaani and is slated for a grand theatrical release on April 7, 2027.
