Rajamouli has always been known for handling controversies with a cool head. Whether it was the RRR discussions in the past or sensitive debates around characters, he usually allows issues to settle on their own instead of reacting sharply.
The latest storm started at the Varanasi trailer launch where his comments about Lord Hanuman sparked strong reactions. The topic has not cooled down and political groups have now stepped into the debate, giving it a new angle.
At the same time, another issue is brewing. A production house that claims ownership of the title Varanasi has released documents from the Film Chamber to support their claim. Talks have not concluded yet and both teams have not sat together for a final discussion.
Since there is still plenty of time, industry seniors want to call a meeting at a suitable moment and close the matter peacefully. Being a pan world project, Rajamouli is expected to take the lead in finding a fair solution. There is even a possibility of offering compensation if needed to the party that already registered the title.
But this is only the beginning. The movie is not even halfway through filming and fans are already worried about how many more issues might rise in the coming months. The unexpected negativity around Rajamouli is surprising everyone. Still, the team has not slowed down promotions. Several interviews featuring Mahesh Babu and the main cast have already been recorded to introduce the project on a global scale.
Even with so much noise surrounding the film, Rajamouli remains focused on his work. His son Karthikeya is handling matters behind the scenes, ensuring that problems are dealt with smoothly without disturbing the flow of the production.
