SS Rajamouli has seen some of his biggest films miss their originally announced release dates. The director is very particular about visuals, and thus, audiences have to wait longer. His earlier films Baahubali, Eega and RRR also faced similar delays.
Many felt Varanasi might break this release delay pattern. The director himself announced that the film would release on April 7, 2027. Moreover, writer Vijayendra Prasad also confirmed in October that the film would be released on April 7. Fans felt that Rajamouli would not delay the film this time.
However, according to the latest buzz, Varanasi might be postponed. The buzz is that the makers are planning to shift the release date to August 2027. The reason behind the delay is the massive VFX work involved in the film. This would give the team a few more months to complete the VFX and pending work. However, there is no official confirmation yet.
Overall, Varanasi is a huge project, and Rajamouli is not likely to compromise on the visuals. But we have to wait and see whether he will be able to stick to his April release promise or not.
