The wait for Baahubali 3 may finally be coming to an end. Years after Baahubali: The Beginning and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion redefined Indian cinema, fans have finally received the biggest hint yet that the blockbuster franchise is set to continue.

The surprise comes in the closing moments of Netflix’s documentary series, Baahubali: The Torchbearer.
