Actress Priyanka Chopra is all set to make her comeback in Indian cinema with the upcoming film Varanasi, directed by the renowned filmmaker SS Rajamouli. In a recent interview, Priyanka revealed that before signing the film, she had one special request - to have the opportunity to showcase her dancing skills. She expressed her excitement about dancing in the film, emphasizing that it had been quite some time since she had the chance to do so. However, she later realized the impact of her request when she found out that there was a significant amount of dancing involved in the film. Priyanka humorously shared that her co-star, Mahesh Babu, also had to put in extra effort due to her request, as he jokingly remarked that he too had to dance because of her.
According to Mahesh Babu, one of the film's songs has already been shot and is receiving rave reviews for its sensational appeal. Varanasi, featuring Priyanka Chopra in an action-packed role as Mandakini, also stars Mahesh Babu in the lead role and Prithviraj Sukumaran as the villain. The film, which revolves around time travel and action-adventure, marks Priyanka's much-anticipated return to Indian cinema.
