The wait is finally over! The trailer of S.S. Rajamouli’s legendary spectacle Baahubali is out now, and the nation is once again swept up in the euphoria that only this epic can ignite. As audiences relive the grandeur and emotions that defined an era, anticipation is soaring for the film’s grand re-release on October 31, a date when history will repeat itself in cinemas across the country. For the unversed, the first Baahubali film hit theatres in July 2015. It starred Prabhas with Rana Daggubati, Tamannaah Bhatia and Anushka Shetty in key roles. On the other hand, the film’s sequel, Baahubali: The Conclusion hit theatres in April 2017. Both films were a massive success at the box office and were widely loved by the audience. Later, the makers had also introduced the animated series Baahubali: Crown of Blood, which was set in the universe of popular Baahubali feature films. It was also widely appreciated. Previously, SS Rajamouli confirmed that he is going to expand his Baahubali franchise in many “ways and mediums”. He mentioned that they are looking beyond films to expand the Prabhas starrer and added that he is working on it with the film’s producer Shobu Yarlagadda. “When a brand is created in the West, it goes multi-media. We’ve tried making games, a VR film, and a series for ‘Baahubali’ so far. But, nothing worked out as expected,” Rajamouli said as quoted by India Today and then added, “It took us time to get here and to find the right people. It was also difficult to break away and hand over the reins to creator Sharad [Devarajan]. But, they did a good job with it, and it’s something that needed to happen.” “Baahubali is going to go forward not just with animated series. It is going to expand in many other ways and medium. This is not the platform to talk about it,” he shared.
