Mahesh Babu-Rajamouli's Varanasi is capturing the imagination of all. The film is racing for a spectacular release on 7 April 2027
.
In the meantime, Rajamouli speaking to scribes, shared mindblowing update on the film's shoot. He said “What I can say is we have completed a major portion of the shoot, all the important big spectacle action sequences are done,” Rajamouli says. We are [now] into doing the smaller, interconnecting scenes so hopefully, by September, maybe a little bit into October, we should be finishing shooting.”
He added “From the beginning, we knew the sequences that were conceived would be best justified in [the] Imax format – we didn’t change anything just for the format,” he says, noting that any adjustments made were minor. “Because our eyes have been trained to shoot in the CinemaScope format, which obviously I love, [we were] just thinking about, we need to frame this [to] look good both in Imax as well as CinemaScope, the anamorphic framing, so that took a little bit of adjustment for the first few initial days. Then we understood how to do it.”
