Hyderabad, March 2

Actor Mahesh Babu is full of praise for his 'Varanasi' co-star Priyanka Chopra Jonas, hailing her performance in 'The Bluff'.

Taking to his X handle, Mahesh Babu penned a special note for Priyanka, stating that the actor remains in her "top form."

"#TheBluff is a a well mounted film with engaging action n emotions !!! @priyankachoprais in top form swashbuckling and ticking all the boxes with a packed performance... Sending all my love to the team for the amazing work," he wrote.

Earlier, filmmaker SS Rajamouli also heaped praise on the actor after watching the trailer of 'The Bluff'.

Taking to Instagram Story, Rajamouli wrote, "Priyanka is unstoppable and always surprises....what a commanding presence and fiery performance. Looking forward to 'The Bluff'."

Notably, Priyanka Chopra is all set to make her return to Indian cinema with the upcoming film 'Varanasi', directed by Rajamouli, starring Mahesh Babu in the lead role.

Last year, SS Rajamouli announced the title of the film and introduced the character of Mahesh Babu, who was seen riding an ox while holding a trishul in his hands at a grand Globetrotter event in Hyderabad.

The actor is set to play the role of Rudhra in the film. Priyanka will play the role of Mandakini in the film.

Prithviraj Sukumaran is also a part of 'Varanasi'. The movie is expected to be released in 2027.

Coming back to 'The Bluff', the film is set in the Cayman Islands. The film consists of high-octane action, with Priyanka taking on intense sword and gun sequences opposite Karl Urban.

Directed by Frank E. Flowers, siblings Anthony Russo, Joe Russo, and Angela Russo-Otstot serve as the producers of the film under the production banner AGBO.

'The Bluff' was released on Prime Video on February 25.

Watched The Bluff over the weekend. PC is absolutely fantastic in the action sequences. But honestly, the story felt a bit predictable. Still, she carries the film on her shoulders. Excited to see what she does with Mandakini in Varanasi!

Mahesh Babu praising his future co-star, good sportsmanship! The hype for Varanasi is already building. 2027 feels so far away though. Rajamouli taking his time, hope it's worth the wait like RRR was.

Interesting to see the cross-pollination between Hollywood and Indian cinema. Priyanka is a bridge. The Bluff was entertaining, but her character's depth surprised me. Looking forward to seeing her in a full-blown Indian epic again.

As a Telugu person, super excited for Mahesh Babu's pan-India push with Rajamouli! Him riding an ox with a trishul... the visuals alone! And pairing him with Priyanka is a masterstroke. Hope the story is as strong as the star cast.

Respectfully, I feel we overhype our stars abroad sometimes. The Bluff is a decent action film, but calling it "amazing work" might be a stretch. Priyanka is good, but the film is average. Let's keep our praise genuine.
