SS Rajamouli directed Baahubali recently clocked 10 years of release. As the makers reunited and announced re-release of both parts, fans are jumping with joy.

Rana Daggubati on killing Baahubali
S.S. Rajamouli’s Baahubali wasn’t just a film; it was a phenomenon that redefined Indian cinema on the global map. With the filmmaker’s visionary storytelling, jaw-dropping grandeur, and breathtaking performances from the lead cast — including Prabhas and Rana Daggubati — both parts of Baahubali shattered every cinematic boundary. As the film gears up for a re-release, the makers indulged in a fun banter by questioning, “What if Kattappa didn’t kill Baahubali?” Rana Daggubati (Bhallala Deva) and Prabhas had a quirky response to it.
When the first part of the film ended, it left audiences across the globe stunned and fixated on the biggest question: Why did Kattappa kill Baahubali? After a long, nail-biting wait, Baahubali: The Conclusion finally answered it, revealing that Sivagami had ordered Kattappa to take the tragic step.
