Behold, ‘Varanasi’, the Next Movie from S.S. Rajamouli

Three years ago, Indian filmmaker S.S. Rajamouli released RRR, a period piece action epic that broke through to the mainstream and became a global sensation. After the just-released action epic Baahubali from this past October, Rajamouli’s got another film up his sleeve: Varanasi—or for those in non-Indian countries, Globetrotter or Timetrotter.

Revealed at a massive press event in India, the film is set across multiple time periods. From 512 CE to 2027 and 7200, from the titular Indian city to Africa and Antarctica, there’s a lot going on in the trailer, which provides sweeping shots of the various locations and eras. During the event, Rajamouli revealed he shot the film for IMAX, and it definitely shows as the score and scope of the film continues to expand in the trailer.

While light on plot details, we know our main character is Maresh Babu as Rudrha, who wields a trident and rides a bull into battle. Other stars include Prithviraj Sukumaran as Kumbha and Priyanka Chopra as Mandikini, who both appear to be present day characters, whereas Rudrha is from an earlier era.

Look for Varanasi to hit theaters sometime in 2027.
