Excitement reached fever pitch among Indian cinema enthusiasts as portions of the highly anticipated trailer for SS Rajamouli's next cinematic venture, officially titled 'Varanasi', unexpectedly surfaced online. The leak occurred shortly after the film's team treated fans to exclusive content at the 'GlobeTrotter' event held at Hyderabad's renowned Ramoji Film City.
Trailer Footage Goes Viral
According to multiple viral social media posts, the first few seconds of the SSMB29 trailer have been circulating online, giving fans an unauthorized early glimpse into what promises to be another visual spectacle from the Baahubali director. The leaked footage appears to be genuine, captured during the special fan event where Rajamouli's team officially launched the motion character posters and film title.
The leaked clips reveal stunning visuals that blend mythological, historical, and science fiction elements in a way never seen before in Indian cinema. The footage authenticity is bolstered by its alignment with previous reports about the massive Varanasi set constructed at Ramoji Film City.
Historical Varanasi Meets Cosmic Adventure
The leaked trailer footage takes viewers on a journey through a meticulously recreated ancient city of Varanasi set in 512 CE, showcasing Rajamouli's signature attention to historical detail. However, the narrative quickly expands beyond earthly boundaries as the footage transitions to cosmic scenes of blazing asteroids racing toward Earth.
One particular asteroid, identified as Shambhavi 2027 CE, becomes the focal point as it plummets through the atmosphere and makes impact on the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica. The cosmic collision reveals something extraordinary beneath the ice - what appears to be an ancient, hidden city frozen in time.
Visual Spectacle and Industry Impact
The scale of the visuals showcased in the leaked footage has generated tremendous excitement about the extensive VFX work employed in the film. Images of ancient cityscapes and ruins of prehistoric civilizations demonstrate the film's ambitious scope, positioning it as a potential global action-adventure epic that could redefine Indian cinema on the world stage.
Despite the viral nature of the leak, neither SS Rajamouli nor the production team has officially commented on the authenticity of the footage or confirmed the plot details revealed by the leak. The silence from the official channels has only intensified speculation and discussion among fans and industry observers.
The leak comes after accurate pre-event speculation about the film's title, which many sources had correctly identified as 'Varanasi' prior to the official announcement. This pattern of accurate leaks suggests that maintaining complete secrecy around high-profile projects remains challenging in the digital age.
