Amaravati, November 04, 2025: The much-anticipated collaboration between director SS Rajamouli and actor Mahesh Babu, tentatively known as SSMB29, has secured the title Varanasi, confirming earlier whispers from industry insiders. The decision, finalised after acquiring rights from an existing holder, aligns with the film's ambitious scope and global storytelling ambitions. A teaser unveiling the name aired during the ICC Women's World Cup final on JioHotstar, building excitement for what promises to be another Rajamouli epic following the global smash RRR.

The title announcement ceremony is slated for November 15 at Hyderabad's Ramoji Rao Film City, with a live broadcast on JioHotstar to reach fans worldwide. The cast features Mahesh Babu in the lead, alongside Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Prithviraj Sukumaran in pivotal roles, hinting at a narrative blending high-stakes action with cultural depth. Rajamouli's team stressed the title's fit for the project's vision, dismissing prior speculation around options like Globetrotter.
