The SS Rajamouli directorial, ‘ Baahubali: The Epic ‘, gears up for a grand re-release this October and nostalgia has taken over the internet. After the makers revisited the most iconic question in Indian cinema, “Why did Kattappa kill Baahubali ?” The official Baahubali X handle set the ball rolling with a cheeky twist, asking fans, “What if Kattappa didn’t kill Baahubali?”
This post led to a hilarious exchange between the film’s leading men, Prabhas and Rana Daggubati .
Rana steps into Bhallaladeva mode
Rana Daggubati instantly posted a response that immediately went viral. “I would have killed him instead,” Rana wrote, perfectly capturing the menacing villain he portrayed in the franchise. The clever one-liner oozes villainy and reminds fans why Bhallaladeva is possibly one of the most famous villains of Indian cinema.
Prabhas’ royal comeback
Prabhas, the hero everyone loves Amarendra Baahubali, shared Rana’s insult on his Instagram story, and wrote a comeback response that only a king could say, “I let it happen Bhalla…. for this!” The caption came with the iconic poster for Baahubali: The Conclusion that proclaimed its legendary status, “No. 1 Blockbuster of Indian Cinema – Rs 1000+ Crores Worldwide.”
