Prior to this, Priyanka informed through another social media post that it was her last working day in Hyderabad for the month for the S.S Rajamouli's directorial.

She added that she will soon be going back to Los Angeles to promote her English action thriller "The Bluff".

PeeCee assured that she will be joining the 'Varanasi' sets shortly, following the promotions.

Priyanka has been roped in as the leading lady, Mandakini, in the much-awaited drama, which will mark her return to the Indian cinema after a long time. The first-look posters from "Varanasi" featured her holding a pistol while wearing a yellow saree.

Shifting our focus to "The Bluff", the project will have Priyanka in an action-packed avatar as Ercell Bodden, a fierce pirate.

Backed by the Russo Brothers under AGBO Studios along with Amazon MGM Studios, "The Bluff" also features Temuera Morrison as Quartermaster Lee, Captain Connor's gold-hungry consigliere, along with Ismael Cruz Córdova, Safia Oakley-Green, Zach Morris, David Field, and Vedanten Naidoo in key roles.

"The Bluff" is expected to reach the audience on February 25.

Honestly, a bit tired of these PR moves. Every celebrity posts about local food when they leave a city. Just focus on the work, yaar. That said, the 'Varanasi' poster looks fire, and the cast with Mahesh Babu is epic. Hope the film delivers.

Her schedule is insane! Flying from Hyderabad to LA for promotions and then back for the shoot. Respect the hustle. 'The Bluff' trailer looks intense, and Mahesh Babu's praise is a big deal. Wishing her the best for both projects!

Great to see her return to Indian cinema with a powerhouse director like Rajamouli. That's the real news. The bun maska is a nice touch, but her coming back to do a proper Indian film after so long is what matters most. Jai Ho!

Interesting to see the crossover between Hollywood and Indian film industries happening in real-time with her career. Promoting a Hollywood film one week, shooting a pan-Indian epic the next. She's building a unique bridge.
