Mahesh Babu’s birthday teaser

“I am eagerly waiting, as you all are, for November 2025 to enjoy the reveal with all of you. #GlobeTrotter”

Rajamouli also used the same hashtag in his post.

Director’s message to fans

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Rajamouli addressed cinema lovers and Mahesh Babu fans, noting the scale of the project:

“The story and scope of this film are so vast that I feel mere pictures or press conferences cannot do it justice. We are currently working on something to showcase the essence, depth, and immersive world we are creating. This will be unveiled in November 2025, and we are trying to make it a never-before-seen reveal.”

He also expressed gratitude for the audience’s patience since filming began.

While no further details were released, speculation about the cast continues. Priyanka Chopra, rumoured to be part of the project, has not commented or shared the teaser. Prithviraj Sukumaran has confirmed his involvement but did not post about the reveal.

Fans reacted with enthusiasm online, predicting the film could surpass the box office success of Baahubali and Dangal. One fan wrote, “This will break records,” while another added, “Can’t wait for November.”
