India | 2015 | DCP | 151 min. | Telugu with English subtitles
Director: S.S. Rajamouli
Cast: Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Anushka Shetty
A larger-than-life saga etched with the force of an ancient myth, Rajamouli’s mammoth sword-and-sandals epic changed the trajectory of Indian cinema. When a dashing young warrior discovers his royal heritage, he sets out to reclaim the throne from the corrupt regime. Boasting jaw-dropping battle sequences, searing melodrama, and spectacular filmmaking, the Baahubali films shattered Indian box-office records. Originally released in two parts separated by nearly two years of anticipation (an agonizing wait after The Beginning’s notorious cliffhanger), don’t miss this chance to experience the full Baahubali in one glorious binge, presented with a 20 minute intermission.
