‘Varanasi’ Set Photo Sparks Massive Buzz on Social Media

A purported leaked set photograph from director S.S. Rajamouli’s upcoming film Varanasi, starring Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Prithviraj Sukumaran, has gone viral on social media. The image reportedly shows massive ancient temple structures alongside giant prehistoric creatures and a dinosaur, leaving fans stunned by the scale and prompting comparisons with Hollywood blockbusters. However, the authenticity of the photograph has not been verified, and it could also be an AI-generated image.

The viral buzz comes amid reports about the film’s ambitious production design. According to reports, a massive recreation of the holy city of Varanasi, reportedly costing around ₹50 crore, is being constructed at Ramoji Film City. The elaborate sets are said to support the film’s globe-trotting action and time-travel elements. Until the makers officially confirm the leaked image, fans will have to wait to know whether it offers a genuine glimpse of the much-awaited project.
