Hyderabad: In a significant update that has reignited excitement among fans, producer KE Gnanavel Raja has confirmed that a third instalment in the Baahubali franchise is officially in the works. Directed by SS Rajamouli, the first two parts of Baahubali (The Beginning in 2015 and The Conclusion in 2017) became global sensations, revolutionising Indian cinema. The franchise not only became a landmark in storytelling and visual effects but also laid the foundation for the current wave of pan-India blockbusters like Pushpa, RRR, KGF, and Kantara.
Speaking to a newswire, Gnanavel Raja revealed that discussions for Baahubali 3 have begun, with the film's team recently coming together to brainstorm ideas. He explained that while the previous two instalments were released back-to-back within a span of two years, this time the filmmakers are intentionally taking a longer gap to allow the audience to reconnect with the characters and story. The team wants to ensure that the next chapter of the Baahubali saga will resonate deeply with fans before it unfolds on the big screen.
