The acclaimed filmmaker SS Rajamouli praised Priyanka Chopra Jonas for her outstanding performance in the new trailer for The Bluff. The RRR director demonstrated that Priyanka Chopra has a strong stage presence, creating surprise elements through her acting.
The Bluff is a historical action thriller set in the late 19th-century Cayman Islands, produced by the Russo Brothers’ AGBO banner and starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas as Ercell Bodden, a former pirate queen now living a peaceful life with her family. The film, under Frank E. Flowers’ direction and its authentic portrayal of piracy, shows Ercell’s struggle for survival as she battles her dangerous past and her former captain, who seeks revenge. The Bluff showcases its exciting battle scenes together with authentic period costumes as its primary filming locations because the movie was shot mostly in Australia. The movie will have its first worldwide premiere on Amazon Prime Video on February 25, 2026.
Priyanka Chopra, who began her career in Bollywood, now works in Hollywood, and thanked Rajamouli on Instagram Stories for using kind words to describe her. The mutual admiration develops into a valuable moment because the two are currently working together on Rajamouli’s upcoming project Varanasi. The epic film will mark Priyanka’s return to Indian cinema after years of focusing on international projects.
Priyanka will perform Mandakini in Varanasi together with Mahesh Babu from Telugu cinema and Prithviraj Sukumaran from Malayalam cinema. The major theatrical release of the magnum opus will coincide with the Sankranti festival, one of the most lucrative holiday periods for Indian movies.
