Varanasi: S.S. Rajamouli Partners With Malaysia's SkyBlue Cinematix for Global Brand Integration

In an exclusive report by Variety, it has been revealed that S.S. Rajamouli's upcoming magnum opus, Varanasi, has officially partnered with Malaysia-based SkyBlue Cinematix for its worldwide brand integration. The deal grants SkyBlue Cinematix—the content arm of the SkyBlue Group—exclusive rights to architect and manage all global brand partnerships within the film. This strategic collaboration marks a significant step in Rajamouli's mission to scale the project for a massive international audience ahead of its scheduled release on April 7, 2027. Varanasi is being mounted as one of India's most ambitious cinematic projects to date. It is among the first Indian productions to be shot in the 1.43:1 IMAX format, promising a visual experience tailored for the world's largest screens. Described as a high-octane, globe-trotting action-adventure, the film aims to blend ancient Indian legends with contemporary storytelling. The production is planned for a worldwide theatrical rollout across more than 120 countries, following the global success of Rajamouli’s previous hits, Baahubali and the Oscar-winning RRR. Departing from traditional product placement, SkyBlue Cinematix intends to implement a strategy called Authentic Narrative Weaves. This approach focuses on deeply embedding global brands into the film's storyline so that they align organically with both the ancient and modern settings of the movie. This method ensures that commercial partnerships do not disrupt the immersive experience of the mythology-rooted narrative. S.S. Rajamouli emphasized the importance of this integration, stating to Variety, Varanasi is mounted on an enormous scale, both creatively and technically. Every collaboration helps the film reach wider audiences meaningfully. I hope our partnership with SkyBlue Cinematix integrates global brands organically and respectfully into its rooted world. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Dato' Manikandamurthy Velayoudam, Chair of SkyBlue Group, described the mandate as a global cinematic movement. SkyBlue Group brings over 18 years of experience in media and infrastructure across Malaysia, the UAE, India, and Nigeria. Their extensive network includes over 1,400 transit media touchpoints in Dubai and digital out-of-home networks in Southeast Asia. This partnership is expected to provide the film with a robust strategic engine to power its commercial presence on a global stage. To ensure Varanasi is experienced in its native 1.43:1 IMAX format, S.S. Rajamouli has addressed the shortage of True IMAX screens in India, famously joking about staging a Dharna by pitching a tent outside the IMAX office in Los Angeles to demand infrastructure that matches his ₹1,300-crore vision. While India is currently IMAX's seventh-largest market with a 60% footprint growth since 2020, most existing screens are limited to the smaller 1.90:1 digital format. In response to Rajamouli's symbolic appeal, IMAX has signaled they are ready for expansion, prioritizing the installation of dual-laser projection systems in major Indian metros to meet the technical requirements for the film’s 2027 rollout. While Varanasi features Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu in the lead role, the film's script is penned by veteran writer V. Vijayendra Prasad. Drawing inspiration from real-life events and mythology, the film is expected to be a milestone in the global crossover genre, setting new standards for how Indian cinema is produced and marketed to a worldwide audience.

SS Rajamouli's Varanasi To Be Shorter Than RRR?

Hyderabad, February 13 - Director SS Rajamouli's Varanasi is his most ambitious film yet, and everyone got a glimpse of it when the makers released the first-look teaser in November last year. The nearly 4-minute-long promo showcased Rajamouli's massive vision for the global action-adventure. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Ever since the teaser of Mahesh Babu's starrer dropped, social media has been buzzing with speculation about how long the film would be. Seeing the massive scale, fans believe that it can't be fit into one film, and that Rajamouli might have to split it into two parts or keep it as a super lenghty one part epic. While everyone is speculating multiple parts or a high runtime, Rajamouli seems to have a clear-cut plan to complete the story in one part. What is interesting is that the legendary filmmaker intends to keep the film's theatrical runtime under 3 hours. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) “At this point, I’m assuming @VaranasiMovie run time will be less than 3hour” - @ssrajamouli ▶️ https://t.co/SeOUk2PDRn #MaheshBabu | #Varanasi pic.twitter.com/1tpLtlRQli— VardhanDHFM (@_VardhanDHFM_) February 13, 2026 During an interview with Collider, the Baabubali director said that as things are proceeding, he believes that the final runtime of Varanasi will be less than 3 hours, which will be less than his last film, RRR. Released in 2022, RRR was huge in scale with the official runtime of 3 hours and 2 minutes, and to have a shorter runtime than the last film for the upcoming film, which is bigger than RRR in terms of everything, is insane. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Of course, a lot of shooting is still pending, and the final runtime might vary, but it is clear that Rajamouli is not looking to expand the film in multiple parts (as of now). When it comes to filmmaking, no one does things better than Rajamouli, but it will be interesting to see how he fits such a massive scale in a film with under 3 hours, while keeping it engaging and the spectacle he is known for. Also starring Priyanka Chopra and Prithviraj Sukumaran, Varanasi is scheduled to release on April 7, 2027. Stay tuned...

SS Rajamouli Picks One of The Greatest Cinematic Moments In Varanasi

Hyderabad, February 13 - Director SS Rajamouli has often spoken about cinema transcending realism, and the scene he associates with one of the greatest cinematic moments in Varanasi perfectly reflects that philosophy. During an interview with Collider, the maverick filmmaker picked the moment in the film which he feels is going to be a peak cinematic moment. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The filmmaker was asked at what point he thought of making Varanasi. While he didn't pinpoint an instance which led him to make this global action adventure, he did point out the scene featuring the titular character, Rudra, played by Mahesh Babu. The visual captures a ferocious warrior charging through the ancient city atop a raging bull, with dust, chaos, and towering temples framing the spectacle. It is not designed to depict everyday Varanasi, but its eternal spirit—raw, powerful, and deeply spiritual. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) What elevates this moment into cinematic greatness is its symbolism. The bull instantly evokes Nandi, the sacred mount of Lord Shiva, who is intrinsically linked to Varanasi. By placing his protagonist on the bull, Rajamouli fuses man and epicness into a single visual idea. For Rajamouli, this moment represents cinema at its most elemental—where culture, history, movement, and emotion collide in a single frame. It is the kind of shot that, Rajamouli feel, will remain etched in the audience's memory long after the film ends.

SS Rajamouli's Dharna for IMAX: How Mahesh Babu's Varanasi Could Finally Bring True 1.43:1 Screens to India

In the world of global cinema, S.S. Rajamouli is no longer just a filmmaker; he is a visionary architect of spectacle. Following the historic global success of RRR, Rajamouli is now setting his sights on a new frontier—one that isn't just about the story on screen, but the screen itself.His upcoming globe-trotting adventure, officially titled Varanasi (formerly #SSMB29), starring Superstar Mahesh Babu, is being positioned as a cultural and technological inflection point for India. During a high-profile interaction, Rajamouli issued a playful yet pointed ultimatum to the tech giants in Los Angeles, sparking a viral conversation about India's theatrical infrastructure. The filmmaker's frustration centers on the lack of True IMAX screens in India—specifically those capable of the immersive 1.43:1 aspect ratio. To emphasize his point, Rajamouli shared a sentiment that has now become the rallying cry for Indian cinephiles: In India, we call something like Dharna that says like if you are not happy with someone we pitch tents outside their office and say we demand some theatre. So I am going to pitch tent outside IMAX in LA and demand them... we need big screens here in India. This isn't just a joke; it is a signal of intent from a director who refuses to let his 1,300-crore vision be compressed into standard formats. The irony of the current situation is hard to ignore. India is already IMAX's 7th largest market, with a staggering footprint growth of nearly 60% since 2020. The audience's appetite for premium large-format experiences is undeniable, yet the infrastructure lags behind the ambition. While most Indian IMAX screens are digital versions on smaller 1.90:1 displays, Rajamouli's Varanasi is being filmed specifically for the towering 1.43:1 format. For a story that spans multiple worlds—from the spiritual ghats of Varanasi to the frozen wastes of Antarctica and even the mythic Treta Yuga—the director insists that only the vertical scale of a True IMAX can do justice to the magnificent visuals. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Perhaps the most stinging irony lies in Hyderabad, the heart of Telugu cinema. Despite producing the country's biggest blockbusters and housing a massive fan base, the city currently lacks a confirmed, top-tier IMAX screen. This gap between the industry's creative ambition and its technical infrastructure is precisely what Varanasi hopes to bridge. With a star-studded cast including Mahesh Babu as the protagonist Rudhra, Priyanka Chopra Jonas as Mandakini, and Prithviraj Sukumaran as the antagonist Kumbha, the film is designed for scale, myth, and immersion. Rajamouli has even noted that for the film's teaser launch, they audaciously built a custom 100-foot by 130-foot screen just to show the footage as intended. The ball is now firmly in the court of Indian exhibitors. IMAX has already responded to Rajamouli's Dharna comment with a clear we're ready, signaling that they are open for business and eager to expand.If Varanasi receives the IMAX treatment it deserves by its April 7, 2027 release, it won't just elevate one film; it will reset the expectations for how Indian blockbusters are experienced. It could finally normalize IMAX-first filmmaking in India, turning it from a premium afterthought into a standard for excellence. As Rajamouli prepares to take his fight to LA, the message is clear: Indian cinema has the vision—it's time for the theaters to provide the canvas.
