After Varanasi, Who Will Direct Mahesh Babu’s Next Big Film?

Superstar Mahesh Babu is currently busy with his ambitious pan-world project Varanasi, directed by SS Rajamouli. The film has already generated massive buzz across India and overseas, with reports suggesting a unique blend of mythology, time travel, and adventure. Mahesh is expected to appear in multiple looks, while Priyanka Chopra and Prithviraj Sukumaran are rumored to play pivotal roles. The film is being planned for a grand worldwide release in April 2027.

Even before Varanasi hits the screens, discussions have begun about Mahesh Babu’s next project. Industry circles suggest that director Sandeep Reddy Vanga is among the strongest contenders to collaborate with the superstar. Having delivered blockbuster films like Arjun Reddy, Kabir Singh, and Animal, Sandeep has previously expressed his desire to work with Mahesh. However, with Spirit and Animal Park already in his pipeline, fans are eagerly waiting to see which filmmaker ultimately gets the opportunity to direct Mahesh after Varanasi.
