Hyderabad: Indian actress Priyanka Chopra is set to join filmmaker SS Rajamouli, actor Mahesh Babu, and Malayalam star Prithviraj Sukumaran at the much-anticipated Globetrotter event in Hyderabad on 15 November. The mega celebration, hosted at Ramoji Film City, marks a major milestone in the journey of SSMB 29, widely referred to by its working title Globetrotter.

Hours before the event, Priyanka took to her official X (formerly Twitter) account to share an enthusiastic video message with her fans. In it, she confirmed that she was on her way to Ramoji Film City and encouraged attendees to follow safety protocols and bring their special entry “passports,” which serve as unique access passes to the event.

“Okay! It’s the big day. I am on my way to the Ramoji Film City for the big Globetrotter event. I am so excited to see everybody there. Make sure to bring your passport, make sure you are safe and will see you there! I’ll keep you posted on all the background stuff,” she said.

Her message quickly went viral among fans eagerly awaiting her appearance at one of the largest promotional events ever organised for an Indian film.

Event passports and crowd control

The Globetrotter event has generated unprecedented hype, fuelled by Rajamouli’s reputation for showmanship and the massive fan base of Mahesh Babu. The organisers have issued specially designed passports, which contain the film’s first glimpse and a poetic note:

“Two years ago, we set out to chase the kind of stories that don’t have maps. Today that journey stands at the edge of history, unveiling the title and glimpse to welcome you into our world. Let’s celebrate this moment together, safely and with pride.”

Entry to the open-ground event remains strictly regulated, with fans instructed to follow all guidelines due to the expected crowd size. Videos circulating online earlier in the day showed thousands of Mahesh Babu fans arriving on bikes, jeeps, and on foot, waving flags and rushing toward the venue.

Rajamouli confirms title reveal details

Director SS Rajamouli also shared an update on X, confirming that the official title of the film would be unveiled live on the giant screen during the event. The title and accompanying visual will be released digitally only after they premiere before the audience at Ramoji Film City.

“The title of the film will be revealed along with a visual to the world… Once it airs on the big screen at the #GlobeTrotter event, we will make it live online…,” Rajamouli wrote.

The filmmaker’s announcement has heightened anticipation, with fans across India and abroad waiting for the global reveal.

Star-studded attendance

The event will feature appearances by:

  • SS Rajamouli, director
  • Mahesh Babu, lead actor of SSMB 29
  • Priyanka Chopra, attending as special guest
  • Prithviraj Sukumaran, actor
  • MM Keeravani, Oscar-winning music composer

Industry insiders say the scale and design of the event are unlike any seen before, with immersive elements and multiple giant screens set up across the venue to ensure fans do not miss a moment.

A major moment for SSMB 29

With the Globetrotter event, Rajamouli and his team are aiming to create a global moment in film promotion. The director, known for pushing boundaries with Baahubali and RRR, is expected to introduce an all-new cinematic universe with Mahesh Babu in the lead.

For fans, Priyanka Chopra’s participation adds significant star power, drawing international attention to the event. As the stage is set at Ramoji Film City, the excitement surrounding the title reveal continues to peak.
