Impact of Bahubali

Tweet

While I was watching the movie for second time today on TV, first being in theatre last year, I felt this is the most impactful movie from India so far. There have been classics, there have been some mind blowing movies , but Bahubali unapologetically is loud about what it is and what it is intended to be. The background score of the movie only enhances the grandeur and vision of the movie. Again its not a mere visual feast, but it is so powerful in its execution of screenplay and performance that one cant help but get overwhelmed by its energy. Every character stands out, especially the mother Shivagami is splendid and knows exactly how she wants her two boys to grow up. It wouldn't be wrong to say that Bahubali: The beginning scaled those heights which many movies aspired to but never reached there. Be it war scenes, be it Bhallaldev idol surrection scene or the overall sets, the genius vision of S S Rajamouli was everywhere. In the history of Indian cinema, there had never been the curiosity and eager waiting for any sequel like Bahubali: The Conclusion.
