A Mega Event Designed for Global Attention
The #GlobeTrotterEvent is expected to be one of the largest film unveilings ever hosted in Hyderabad. Rajamouli, known for delivering epic cinematic moments from the “Baahubali: The Beginning” pre-release extravaganza to the “RRR” worldwide promotional spectacles is reportedly planning an immersive launch that reflects the film’s adventurous narrative.
The event will showcase:
- Official Title Reveal
- First Motion Teaser / Footage
- Character Introductions of Mahesh Babu & Priyanka Chopra
- Behind-the-Scenes Insights
- Announcement of Filming Locations Across Continents
Fans are expecting a presentation similar in scale to Hollywood franchise launches, aligning with Rajamouli’s growing international footprint after the global success of RRR.
Mahesh Babu and Priyanka Chopra Team Up for a Pan-Global Adventure Epic
This untitled project marks the biggest transformation in Mahesh Babu’s career, with Rajamouli crafting a rugged, globe-trotting character inspired by real-life adventurers and explorers. Sources close to the team suggest Mahesh has undergone intense physical training, including survival drills, high-altitude conditioning, and martial arts sessions.
On the other hand, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, who continues to balance Hollywood and Bollywood with ease, joins as the female lead in a role described as “fierce, intelligent, and integral to the core mission of the plot.” Fans are thrilled about her return to Indian cinema on such a massive scale.
The rumored working title “Mandakini” has created a buzz, with speculation that the film draws inspiration from themes of nature, ancient secrets, and lost civilizations though Rajamouli has not yet confirmed this.
Powerhouse Supporting Cast and Crew Intensify the Excitement
Alongside the leading duo, the film features acclaimed actor Prithviraj Sukumaran, who continues to expand his footprint across Indian industries. Known for his commanding screen presence, Prithviraj is expected to play a pivotal role, possibly as the antagonist or a shadowy ally.
The project also reunites Rajamouli with his frequent collaborator and Academy Award-winning composer MM Keeravani, ensuring a rich soundscape that blends tribal rhythms, orchestral scores, and international musical influences.
Producers and Technical Excellence
The film is being jointly produced by Sri Durga Arts and SB by SSK, with a substantial budget that positions it among India’s costliest productions to date. Advanced VFX, real-world exotic locations, and high-octane stunt choreography will form the backbone of the film’s visual identity.
Strict Protocols Announced for the November 15 Event
To maintain smooth organization and crowd control, event managers have declared stringent entry protocols:
- Entry strictly via physical passes
- No entry permitted for attendees under 18 years
- No admission for senior citizens
- Complete supervision by police authorities
- Mandatory security checks at all gates
Given the massive fan following of Mahesh Babu and Rajamouli, these measures aim to prevent overcrowding and ensure safe operations throughout the launch.
The event will be hosted by well-known personalities Ashish Chanchlani and Suma Kanakala, blending entertainment, humor, and engaging interactions with the cast and crew.
Nationwide and International Live Streaming on Jio Hotstar
For fans who cannot make it to Hyderabad, the entire #GlobeTrotterEvent will be live-streamed on Jio Hotstar, ensuring that the global audience gets to witness the reveal moment simultaneously. Social media platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter) will also carry snippets, behind-the-scenes reactions, and exclusive digital content.
Film analysts predict record-breaking online engagement, potentially surpassing the digital buzz generated by the RRR trailer launch.
Aiming for a 2027 Release With Global Scale Production
While the film is still untitled (with “Mandakini” circulating as a possible internal title), the makers have confirmed a 2027 worldwide release. The extended timeline reflects the film’s grand ambition, extensive post-production requirements, and multiple international shooting schedules.
Rajamouli’s team is reportedly exploring locations across:
- Africa
- South America
- Europe
- Middle East
- Northern India’s deep forests and river valleys
The mention of “Mandakini” has fans speculating whether river-based mythology, endangered ecosystems, or hidden ancient trails will play a role in the story.
Rajamouli’s Vision: A Cinematic Universe Rooted in Adventure
According to internal sources, Rajamouli aims to build an adventure universe inspired by the spirit of exploration, survival, and ancient mysteries. This film is expected to be the beginning of a larger cinematic saga that blends rich Indian storytelling with world-class action sequences.
Mahesh Babu’s character reportedly resembles a “desi Indiana Jones meets global explorer,” while Priyanka Chopra’s role adds tactical intelligence and emotional depth to the narrative.
If the title Mandakini proves true, the film could revolve around:
- A mythical river or hidden civilization
- A rare natural element
- A code name for a classified mission
- A symbolic reference to purity, power, or ancient legends
- Rajamouli is known to use metaphorical titles, and “Mandakini” fits his style perfectly.
Fans Gear Up for a Blockbuster-Level Reveal
Social media has exploded with predictions about the film’s genre, storyline, character arcs, and Rajamouli’s bold new direction. Mahesh Babu’s fans are calling the upcoming event “the biggest film announcement in Tollywood history,” while Priyanka Chopra’s global appeal is expected to attract international media.
The hashtag #GlobeTrotterEvent is already trending days before the event, with thousands planning watch parties.

As SS Rajamouli prepares to lift the curtain on his next monumental project, anticipation is reaching fever pitch. Whether the film is ultimately titled Mandakini or something even more surprising, the November 15 event promises a cinematic storm that will redefine the scale and ambition of Indian filmmaking.
