Oscar-winning composer MM Keeravaani says the music of “Varanasi”, the next directorial venture of filmmaker SS Rajamouli, will be nothing short of “grandeur”.
Keeravani, who won an Oscar for best song for the popular track “Naatu Naatu” from Rajamouli’s 2022 film “RRR”, said there is no pressure on him as he has clarity about his job.
“They (fans) can expect grandeur, more than that I’m not supposed to reveal. There will be six songs in the film,” Keeravani told PTI on the sidelines of the International Film Festival of India (IFFI), where his film, “Tanvi: The Great” is being screened.
Priyanka Chopra , the ‘Desi Girl’ of Bollywood and global icon, is making a roaring comeback in the Indian cinema with maverick filmmaker SS Rajamouli’s Varanasi, featuring Mahesh Babu and Prithviraj Sukumaran in prominent roles. While the title reveal was nothing short of extraordinary, PeeCee has hit the ball out of the park by emerging as the highest paid Indian actress, surpassing Deepika Padukone and Alia Bhatt.
As per reports, the actress has demanded Rs 30 crore for her portrayal of Mandakini.
Producer of the film, KL Narayan, praised the Dil Dhadakne Do actress and said, “Priyanka Chopra, being an Indian actress, she went to Hollywood, she got fame, and she changed the dimensions of the Indian film industry. She did all this with her talent and hard work. Thank you, Priyanka, for accepting to be our heroine of this film.”
Varanasi is SS Rajamouli and Mahesh Babu’s most ambitious world-building venture yet. Fans have been waiting for years to see these two come together, and the excitement is at its peak. Rajamouli has already put Indian cinema on the global map, and now his collaboration with South superstar Mahesh Babu is the next big thing to watch out for. This marks the beginning of the promotional journey.
