Varanasi Release Date Rumours: Is the Film Set to Be Delayed?

Speculation has emerged over the release schedule of Varanasi, the highly anticipated film starring superstar Mahesh Babu and directed by S. S. Rajamouli. With discussions surrounding the release dates of several big-budget Telugu films, rumours have begun circulating that Varanasi could also be postponed. The makers have announced April 7, 2027, as the film’s release date. The scale of the production, the expected visual effects work and the time required for post-production have added to the uncertainty, although no confirmed change has been announced.

There is also speculation that Prabhas-starrer Fauzi could potentially occupy the April 7 slot if Varanasi moves to a later date. However, the makers of Varanasi have not officially announced any postponement, and April 7, 2027, remains the publicly announced release date. Until the production team issues an update, reports of a delay should be treated as rumours rather than confirmed news. Fans will have to wait for an official announcement to know whether the film’s release schedule will change.
