For the last couple of weeks, there have been reports saying that Baahubali will be made into a franchise with a trilogy of films. Several reports even said that the film will be made into more than 3 parts as well, depending on their succes. Even the production house did not condemn the news, making it unofficially official.
Today, many media houses reported that the third part is confirmed and that it will not be a sequel to the second part but a prequel to the first part which will be exploring the world of Maahishmati in great detail and that it is expected to release in 2019. But here comes the much needed clarification straight from the horse’s mouth.
Reacting to the part 3 reports, Rajamouli finally broke his silence and tweeted, “Many rumours on Baahubali-3..:)
The story will conclude with part-2. No dragging..but the world of Baahubali will continue in a way that’s Been never experienced before ever. Will reveal the details when appropriate.don’t believe the rumours. Only I know what’s going to come..:)”
With this, curtains for all the rumours have been brought down and fans are already wondering about how the world of Baahubali will continue beyond The Conclusion. Currently, Rajamouli and his team are busy with the pre-production work and the shooting will commence in December.
