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. (ANI)
