A Week of Reveals and Global Excitement

The announcement suggests that the ‘GlobeTrotter’ event will roll out in stages, with Rajamouli gradually unveiling the film’s main characters over the week. Starting today with Prithviraj Sukumaran’s first look, the excitement will build toward the expected reveals of Mahesh Babu and Priyanka Chopra’s characters.

Fans are also expecting the official title announcement on November 15 - the grand finale of the week-long spectacle.

Unsurprisingly, this revelation has sent fans into a frenzy, rekindling the buzz that had been simmering for months around SSMB29, one of Indian cinema’s most ambitious projects yet.

Banter, Hints, and Behind-the-Scenes Fun

This development follows a string of light-hearted online banter between Rajamouli and his lead cast - Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra, and Prithviraj Sukumaran. Earlier this week, Mahesh and Priyanka cheekily “spoiled” the surprise surrounding ‘GlobeTrotter’, prompting Rajamouli to drop a sly hint that Prithviraj’s look would indeed come first.

Meanwhile, Priyanka Chopra has been delighting fans with candid glimpses from the shoot locations- from the lush backdrops of Hyderabad to the verdant beauty of Odisha's Koraput, and the striking terrains of Kenya in East Africa. Each post has only deepened fans’ curiosity about the adventurous, globe-spanning tone of the film.

The countdown to November 15 officially begins with the grand reveal of Prithviraj’s first look from SSMB29.
