Is ‘Varanasi’ releasing on THIS date? Viral hoardings in the city hints at SS Rajamouli’s next masterpiece with Mahesh Babu |
In a move that feels more like a cinematic riddle than a publicity campaign, silent hoardings have transformed ‘Varanasi’ into the centre of a nationwide film frenzy. With no logos, no faces, and no official branding, the billboards display just one line, “In theatres – April 7, 2027.” The low-key promotion has increased curiosity, and so fans and followers are speculating. No one has given an explanation, but everything about the film seems to foreshadow something beyond the very fabric of existence, and the masses are abuzz about SS Rajamouli’s upcoming film ”Varanasi’.
A fuzzy hoarding sparks release date buzz
As gigantic hoardings erected in Varanasi’s key areas, the city instantly turned into a spectacle of gossip and intrigue. While some are convinced this was a random advertising strategy, fans are insistent that it is a calculated ‘tease’ due to the precise location and the fact that the same message was put up everywhere. Without a doubt, it seems that Kanpur 112, the latest release from SS Rajamouli and Mahesh Babu, is intended to hit the theaters on... April 7, 2027.What further aficionados are aware of is that Ugadi and Gudi Padwa fall on the same date, and these festivals see gigantic footfall at box offices in South India. The following holidays, like Ambedkar Jayanti and Ram Navami, continue to add to the commercial value of this period. Most in the sport have a belief that the large scale, as well as the efficiency of the hoardings, imply a planned design even though no formal announcement has been made about the product.
‘Varanasi’ is a debut collaboration between SS Rajamouli and Mahesh Babu and has become one of the most keenly awaited Indian film projects currently in the works. With this film also featuring Priyanka Chopra Jonas who is making a return to Hindi films after many years and Prithviraj Sukumaran, its national and global credentials go up a notch. MM Keeravani is the music composer, continuing his successful association with SS Rajamouli. Such is the scale of the film that it is being regarded as one of the biggest Indian film projects ever.
