Priyanka Chopra Jonas’ Look in S.S. Rajamouli’s ‘Globetrotter’ Revealed

Priyanka Chopra Jonas has made a striking return to Indian cinema with her first look as Mandakini from S.S. Rajamouli’s much-awaited film, tentatively titled Globetrotter (also known as SSMB 29). The film stars Mahesh Babu and Prithviraj Sukumaran alongside Chopra.

Rajamouli unveiled the dramatic poster on Wednesday evening, sharing it across social media platforms and welcoming the actor back to Indian screens. “The woman who redefined Indian Cinema on the global stage. Welcome back, Desi Girl! @priyankachopra. Can’t wait for the world to witness your myriad shades of MANDAKINI. #GlobeTrotter,” the filmmaker wrote.

Priyanka Chopra also posted the look, captioning it, “She’s more than what meets the eye… say hello to Mandakini. #GlobeTrotter.” Her co-star Mahesh Babu joined in the reveal, writing, “And now she arrives…Meet MANDAKINI @priyankachopra.”

The poster depicts Chopra in a bold new avatar—draped in a bright yellow saree, standing precariously on the edge of a cliff while firing a gun. The visual subverts the typical portrayal of commercial film heroines, blending classic style with high-octane action.

Fans quickly flooded the comments with admiration and excitement. One wrote, “OMG @priyankachopra as Mandakini? Saree slaying with a gun in @ssrajamouli's world? This + @urstrulyMahesh = BOX OFFICE TSUNAMI! Who's ready for #GlobeTrotter to break RRR records?” Another user commented, “Priyanka, that Mandakini poster is pure fire—SS Rajamouli’s magic meets your unstoppable vibe! That saree action scene? Epic redefinition of desi power.”

As anticipation builds, the makers are preparing for a grand event at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad on November 15, where the official title of Globetrotter will be announced. Prithviraj Sukumaran’s look as the antagonist, Kumbha, has already been released, offering a glimpse into the film’s expansive world. The event will be live-streamed on JioHotstar.
