Priyanka Chopra posted a behind-the-scenes picture with co-star Mahesh Babu from the sets of SS Rajamouli's upcoming film Varanasi to wish him on his birthday. The photo, likely taken during the Africa shoot, shows them seated together. She called their collaboration an 'ultimate adventure'.
On the same day, the makers unveiled Mahesh Babu's first look as Rudhra, a rugged man on a bamboo raft in the wild. Social media reports claim his Zegna cap in the BTS image is worth Rs 80,000, though the price is unconfirmed. The film also stars Prithviraj Sukumaran and is set for an April 2027 release.
The film's buzz feeds on star power and a mega-budget narrative, but the cap price gossip shows how easily celebrity fashion hijacks the conversation. The real test for Varanasi will be its substance, story, music and performance, not the hype around a single accessory or a first look. Will the wait till 2027 be worth it? The audience will decide.
