Priyanka Chopra, who recently travelled to Hyderabad for the grand title announcement event of SS Rajamouli’s Varanasi, has now treated fans to an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at her intense preparation for the mega occasion.
The actress shared a detailed video montage on Instagram on November 17, offering a glimpse into the effort, rehearsals, and emotion that went into making the evening at Ramoji Film City truly spectacular.
The video opens with Priyanka practising her Telugu lines, jotting down her speech, and diligently rehearsing the tricky word “Tagalapetteddaamaa.” It also captures her arrival in Hyderabad, masked and focused, as she runs through her lines repeatedly.
Another segment shows Priyanka on stage with Mahesh Babu and SS Rajamouli as the trio discusses the flow of the event and fine-tunes their rehearsals. She captioned the post, “The #Varanasi launch from my eyes.”
The clip masterfully captures a number of significant moments from the event, including Mahesh Babu, Priyanka and Prithviraj chatting in the backstage, Priyanka's elegant entrance, and her cordial greeting to the crowd in Telugu.
A preview of Shruti Haasan's stirring live performance was also included in the montage, which provides viewers with a glimpse of the show's intricate preparation and scope.
The royal and joyous ambience was enhanced by Priyanka's stunning appearance in a white lehenga embellished with traditional jewellery.
