Varanasi: Who Is Facing Toughest Situation?

After creating history on the world stage, the team behind RRR is now moving carefully toward its next big dream. Expectations are naturally very high, not just in India but across the globe. Every small update related to the film Varanasi is being closely watched. Among all the big names involved, the pressure is quietly building on one key pillar of the project.

After winning an Oscar, MM Keeravani has become a global name. With that recognition comes responsibility. The music he is composing for Varanasi is not just awaited by Telugu audiences but by film lovers worldwide. Many people are already expecting another “Naatu Naatu” level impact. This has naturally increased expectations, but also pressure.

Instead of creating false hype, Keeravani chose honesty. In a recent interview, he clearly said that Varanasi will have six songs. At the same time, he made it clear that he is not trying to beat or repeat the success of RRR. According to him, both films are completely different in story and emotion, so comparisons do not make sense.

Keeravani explained that the music in Varanasi will serve the story. It will include all the emotional and narrative elements needed to connect with audiences. Recently, a song titled Sanchari was released. The response was calm and decent, without huge hype. The makers also did not confirm whether this song is part of the main album, keeping expectations balanced.

Director SS Rajamouli is also under silent pressure. After the global success of RRR, every move he makes is being judged internationally. Along with producer SS Karthikeya, Rajamouli is planning the film very carefully. The team has already started promoting the movie in western media through interviews and interactions.

Actor Mahesh Babu is fully focused on this project. He has not signed or discussed any other films, showing his complete commitment to Varanasi. The shooting is planned to finish by summer by giving enough time for post-production and global promotions.
