Mentioning that exploring central Tamil Nadu's rich heritage and divine tranquility was soul-stirring, the filmmaker shared a video that gave glimpses of the temples he visited. The list of temples included the Brihadeeswarar Koil in Thanjavur, Rameshwaram, Sri Ranganadhaswamy Temple in Srirangam, Tuttikudi, and Madurai. The video also included pictures of the family as they posed outside the temple and also the director's pictures outside the temple, enjoying kayaking, and having a drink outside a temple. 

Along with the video, SS Rajamouli noted that he always wanted to do a road trip to central Tamil Nadu, further crediting his daughter for making it happen in the last week of June this year.

Adding that he could only visit a few temples, SS Rajamouli wrote, "Exquisite architecture, amazing engineering and deep spiritual thought of pandyas, chozhas Nayakkars and many other rulers was truly mesmerizing. Whether the fine dining in Mantrakoodam, Kumbakonam or a kaka hotel murugan mess in Rameshwaram the food has been marvelous everywhere… I must have put on 2-3 kilos in a week. After 3 months of foreign travel and food, this home land tour has been refreshing and uplifting."
