The legendary saga 'Baahubali: The Epic' has stormed back to theaters in a dazzling new form, thrilling fans young and old! This re-edited, 3-hour-45-minute version combines the two parts, Baahubali: The Beginning and The Conclusion, into one seamless cinematic ride. Directed by the visionary SS Rajamouli, known as the ‘contractor’ who turned Indian cinema’s road into a 16-lane super express highway, the film has set a new record. It earned over Rs 10 crore worldwide on opening day – Rs 5 crore in India and Rs 5 crore from North America – making it the biggest-ever opening for a re-release in Indian cinema. Fans are raving about the magical experience of watching 'Baahubali: The Epic' on the big screen again, especially in remastered IMAX format. With its breathtaking visuals, immersive sound design, and perfectly paced editing, the film brings the grand battles and royal drama of Mahishmati to life like never before. One viewer called the IMAX screening “surreal” and praised how every frame screams grandeur. Prabhas, the man behind Amarendra Baahubali, is hailed as a once-in-a-generation icon whose towering presence and heroic moments make the film unforgettable. The scene where Baahubali lifts the massive Shivling and breaks bread on his bulging biceps is etched deep in fans’ hearts as pure cinematic magic. SS Rajamouli himself made a surprise visit to Hyderabad’s Prasads Cinemas during the re-release, thanking fans with warm words: “I don’t think I can express my love in words. Thank you so much. It’s just your love. You guys continuously kept asking and we thought to bring it back.” The re-edited version trims some scenes for a sharper story flow and removes certain songs and flashbacks, resulting in a fast-paced, emotional, and thrilling watch. Fans have called it a “masterclass in editing,” proving a nearly six-hour saga can be condensed without losing any magic. Celebrations and nostalgia are everywhere! From explosive cheers in single-screen theaters mimicking firecrackers, to funny fan moments recreating iconic scenes, the 'Baahubali' fever is alive and hotter than ever. Even Mahesh Babu’s son Gautam praised the experience as “incredible,” especially enjoying the relief of no longer waiting years to know why Kattappa killed Baahubali. Social media buzz shows the love doesn’t fade after 10 years. Fans say the adrenaline rush remains fresh, emotions still soar, and the epic’s timeless charm reignites their hearts. The trailer glowing at IMAX entrances sets the perfect tone, while the roaring crowds prove this film still rules the town. In short, 'Baahubali: The Epic' has returned like a blazing comet—an unforgettable spectacle of power, glory, and cinematic brilliance.
