Across the last eight years, Rajamouli delivered two films: Baahubali 2 in 2017 and RRR in 2022. His next film, Varanasi, is set for 2027, creating a ten-year gap between Baahubali 2 and Varanasi.
In those ten years, Rajamouli will have three major releases, which is remarkable. His focus on perfection and grand production values explains why he takes time to shape each project. Every film demands massive scale, detail, and precision.
Rajamouli stands alone in terms of numbers. Baahubali and RRR together earned around ₹3000 crore. Now he is working on Varanasi, his biggest film yet, already expected to be the costliest project in Indian cinema.
With its scale and marketing push, the film is expected to reach the ₹2000 crore global mark. For that to happen, the Rajamouli and Mahesh project must deliver unprecedented numbers and attract audiences everywhere.
If Varanasi reaches the ₹2000 crore mark, Rajamouli strengthens his legacy further. His three films within a decade would then generate ₹5000 crore collectively. But beyond revenue, his films stand out for the visual experience that defines him as an iconic filmmaker.
