Varanasi: Jr NTR's son Bhargava Ram roped in to play young Mahesh Babu? Report claims Superstar made the request

The excitement around SS Rajamouli"™s magnum opus Varanasi (formerly SSMB29) has just hit a fever pitch. After the massive title reveal earlier this month, a new report is sending shockwaves through Tollywood. If the latest buzz is to be believed, we are about to witness a historic Nandamuri meets Ghattamaneni moment on the big screen! If the latest buzz in Tollywood is anything to go by, fans are in for a massive surprise. According to strong reports, Bhargava Ram"”the 7-year-old younger son of 'Man of Masses' Jr NTR"”has been roped in to make his grand acting debut in SS Rajamouli"™s Varanasi. While official confirmation is still awaited, this development has already sparked a frenzy on social media, marking a potential crossover between two of the industry's biggest acting dynasties. Sources close to the development claim that Bhargava will be playing the childhood version of Mahesh Babu"™s character (Rudhra). The casting choice reportedly didn't happen through a usual audition process. The buzz suggests that Superstar Mahesh Babu personally requested Jr NTR to let his son take up the role, feeling the young starkid had the perfect charm and resemblance for the part. While Jr NTR and Mahesh Babu share a close bond off-screen, their families have rarely crossed paths professionally. If verified, seeing the Young Tiger's son play the Superstar's younger self would be a cinematic treat for fans of both massive clans. Officially announced as Varanasi on November 15, SS Rajamouli"™s magnum opus is shaping up to be a globetrotting action-adventure of unprecedented scale. The film boasts a stellar ensemble, with Mahesh Babu rumored to essay a dual role as Rudhra and Lord Ram, alongside global icon Priyanka Chopra Jonas as the female lead, Mandakini, and Malayalam superstar Prithviraj Sukumaran as the formidable antagonist, Kumbha. Blending mythology with sci-fi elements, the intricate plot reportedly involves time travel and a catastrophic event in ancient 512 CE Varanasi that links to the modern world of 2027. Mounted on a staggering budget of reportedly ₹1300 crore, Varanasi promises to be India"™s most expensive cinematic spectacle to date. While the reports are strong and the casting news is dominating social media trends, an official confirmation from the makers or Jr NTR"™s family is still awaited. Until then, fans are keeping their fingers crossed for this mega-crossover!

Box Office Report: Eko outperforms Prithviraj Sukumaran's Vilaayath Buddha;A detailed 5-day collection analysis

The Malayalam film industry witnessed an interesting box office clash on November 21, 2025, with the release of the Prithviraj Sukumaran starrer Vilaayath Buddha and the mystery thriller Eko. While the former was anticipated to open big due to its star power, the box office numbers after the first five days suggest a shift in audience preference, with the smaller-budget thriller taking a significant lead globally. Billed as an atmospheric mystery thriller, Eko is helmed by director Dinjith Ayyathan, with the screenplay and cinematography handled by Bahul Ramesh. The film features a talented ensemble cast led by Sandeep Pradeep, who previously garnered attention for his role in Falimy (2023). He is supported by a roster of seasoned performers, including Vineeth, Narain, and Binu Pappu, who anchor the film"™s suspenseful narrative. A significant factor driving the film's traction is the brand value of its technical crew. Eko marks the reunion of the core team behind the 2024 sleeper hit Kishkindha Kaandam. Since that film was a critical and commercial success known for its intelligent screenplay and atmospheric storytelling, Eko arrived with a layer of built-in trust. Marketed effectively as a spiritual successor in this specific mystery-thriller space, the film managed to pique audience interest despite the absence of a traditional superstar. In terms of performance, Eko mirrored the trajectory of its predecessor by starting slow but picking up significant momentum by Saturday. The film has demonstrated strong content acceptance, amassing a worldwide collection of ₹14 crore within its first five days. This figure is regarded as a notable achievement for a project without an A-list lead, signaling a clear audience preference for the film's engaging narrative style. Eko: The Box Office Breakout Riding on positive word-of-mouth, Eko has shown a steady upward trend over the weekend, effectively doubling the numbers of its competitor. India Net Collection: ₹ 7.4 Cr India Gross Collection: ₹ 8.75 Cr Overseas Collection: ₹ 5.25 Cr Total Worldwide Collection: ₹ 14 Cr Directed by Jayan Nambiar with a musical score by Jakes Bejoy, the action drama Vilaayath Buddha is headlined by Prithviraj Sukumaran in the role of Double Mohanan, supported by Kottayam Ramesh and Shammi Thilakan. The film serves as an official adaptation of G.R. Indugopan"™s popular novel, centering on a conflict over a sandalwood tree. Prithviraj entered this release riding a wave of immense box office momentum; his previous outing, L2: Empuraan (2025), was a historic blockbuster that shattered opening records, while his survival drama Aadujeevitham (The Goat Life) was a massive commercial success, grossing over ₹150 crore globally. However, despite the lead actor's recent streak of blockbusters, Vilaayath Buddha has underperformed at the ticket windows. Trade analysts attribute this dip to mixed to average audience reports, specifically citing issues with the screenplay's pacing and certain adaptation choices. With a total worldwide gross of just ₹6.45 crore in its first five days, the film now faces a challenging path to recover its theatrical value. Vilaayath Buddha: The Struggle The Prithviraj starrer opened to mixed reviews, which is reflected in its struggling collections despite the star power. India Net Collection: ₹ 3.8 Cr India Gross Collection: ₹ 4.45 Cr Overseas Collection: ₹ 2 Cr Total Worldwide Collection: ₹ 6.45 Cr The 5-day report highlights a recurring trend in the Malayalam industry where content-driven narratives often challenge star-driven vehicles. While Vilaayath Buddha struggled to convert the novel's popularity into footfalls, Eko capitalized on the goodwill of its technical team's previous success (Kishkindha Kaandam) to emerge as the winner of this weekend clash.
