Getting the basics right is what makes SS Rajamouli’s process so special. Everything starts with the pre-production. I’m sure Rajamouli has done an absolutely massive amount of pre-production for #Varanasi, especially because he has already said that he has never attempted a film on this scale before

25 YEARS OF SS RAJAMOULI A filmmaker who knows no boundaries, no limits and certainly no fear. There is a rare kind of audacity in the way this man dreams , the audacity to take the craziest ideas imaginable and turn them into glorious cinematic experiences that connect with millions. From film to film, he has pushed himself further, bigger and crazier, refusing to play it safe or stay inside the boundaries people expect from Indian cinema. What makes Rajamouli truly special is that beneath all the spectacle, scale and madness, there is always a filmmaker who understands emotion, storytelling and the audience. Only a mad man would dream this big, but only a master could make those dreams feel real. 25 years later, the ambition is still getting crazier, the vision is getting bigger, and the audacity remains unmatched. The craziest thing about SS Rajamouli’s 25-year journey is that he has NEVER let success make him play safe. With every film, he took a new risk, pushed the scale further and bet bigger. Eega was made on around 40 crore and collected around 130 crore. Magadheera followed with a similar-scale budget and went on to collect around 150 crore. Then came Maryada Ramanna, before Rajamouli once again took a completely different creative gamble with Eega. Then came Baahubali ,reportedly made on around 180 crore and going on to collect around 650 crore worldwide. Instead of playing safe after that historic success, this mad man doubled down with Baahubali 2, reportedly made on around 250 crore, which went on to cross 1,800 crore worldwide. And then came RRR ,an even bigger 550 crore-scale gamble, eventually delivering around 1400 crore worldwide. And now comes Varanasi,After everything he has achieved, Rajamouli is taking an even bigger risk possibly the biggest gamble Indian cinema has ever seen. He is mounting what is being positioned as Indian cinema’s most ambitious films on a mammoth reported budget of 1,300 CRORE. He is perhaps the only filmmaker in the world who seems to have absolutely NO FEAR OF FAILURE. He is the only filmmaker who has taken a major risk with every single film, constantly stepping outside his comfort zone and putting everything on the line to create something bigger than what he had done before. For Rajamouli, success has never been a reason to play safe. Every success became the foundation for his next insane gamble. Every gamble became a bigger dream. And every dream became cinema. There is a line that feels almost inseparable from an SS Rajamouli film "THE AUDACITY OF IMAGINATION" How does someone even think like this ? How can someone keep taking massive risks with every single film for 25 straight years and still keep turning those risks into extraordinary successes? Like, HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE ? Maybe it isn't when it comes to an ordinary human being,But maybe it is when the filmmaker is Rajamouli, THE GOD OF INDIAN CINEMA. 🐐 25 YEARS OF TAKING THE ROAD NO ONE ELSE DARED TO TAKE. Every film bigger. Every gamble crazier. Every dream more impossible. Every time you think he has reached his limit, he looks at the ceiling and says, “Let’s go higher.” Now it’s VARANASI,Another insane idea. Another massive gamble,Another impossible dream. 25 years of asking, “How far can I push this?” And somehow, the answer is always… further.

Seems like My GOAT @nostoro went absolutely INSANE with this one.

#Varanasi is aiming beyond India , the vision is to take its story to audiences across the world. ~ @ssk1122 And the promotional campaign looks like it’s being planned on a completely different scale. Every move is calculated, with plenty more surprises still waiting to be revealed.

Here’s the clip. I didn’t post it because it’s in Telugu, and Hindi-speaking audiences won’t understand it. Telugu fans probably already know about it since other accounts have posted it.

Never before seen assets and promotions loading for #Varanasi

“If the combination is there, you’ll get the benefit for 3 days (opening weekend), but if you establish a strong story and world, it gives the film longevity.” ~ @ssk1122 “If both are set, that’s Varanasi. I’m mainly waiting for it right now.” ~ @Shobu_ 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😭😭😭😭

Mahesh Babu with Lokesh Kanagaraj after Varanasi ??? GIVE IT TO ME NOWWWWW

MAN OF MASSES IS COMING.

Bhansali daaru peeke poster daal rha h bc

Some people are saying Bhansali and Rajamouli are on the same level ?? Bro,Bhansali doesn’t even have 1% of the vision Rajamouli has. Wake me up when he comes out of his comfort zone and makes a film about a housefly and makes people emotional and cheer for a housefly. Then we’ll talk.

Baahubali The Eternal War could be a major turning point for Indian animation. The worldwide potential of this movie is absolutely massive.

Vicky Kaushal’s poster from Love & War ,damn, he mogged everyone so effortlessly.

Indian Cinema is coming for the world.
