Vijayendra Prasad on Mahesh Babu’s Massive Transformation: “No Words for His Viswaroopam”

The entire Telugu audience—and film lovers across the world—focused their attention on the Globe Trotter event held today at Ramoji Film City. With thousands attending the event in person and millions watching through Jio and Hotstar, the atmosphere was electric. It’s been a long time since Tollywood witnessed an open event with this level of excitement. Thanks to strict security arrangements, the event went smoothly without any untoward incidents.

During the event, legendary writer Vijayendra Prasad, father of SS Rajamouli, shared an exciting revelation about the film.

He revealed that the movie features a 30-minute action episode that showcases Mahesh Babu in an extraordinary manner. He added that even without CG, VFX, or background score, Mahesh’s sheer intensity and screen presence felt divine.
He described the sequence as one that evokes the same spiritual emotion one feels while visiting a powerful temple like Tirupati—an indication of how strongly Rajamouli has crafted the elevation scenes.

Vijayendra Prasad, however, did not reveal where this half-hour action block appears or how it fits into the story—“He’s Jakkanna’s father after all; he won’t reveal secrets so easily,” he joked. Fans erupted in loud cheers hearing these hints.

The first promotional event of this massive pan-India film—titled Varanasi—turned out to be a grand success. The huge crowd turnout and flawless arrangements impressed everyone. With this being Rajamouli’s next film after RRR, filmmakers worldwide are eagerly watching every update. Though the release is far away, excitement is already sky-high.

Now that the first milestone has been crossed successfully, fans are waiting to see what the Rajamouli team unveils next.
