The makers of Baahubali prepare a special treat for fans. Along with the grand re-release of the franchise, the team works on a Baahubali documentary. The franchise that transformed Telugu cinema returns to theatres worldwide on October 31 as Baahubali: The Epic. The re-release combines both parts of the film into one, while the documentary promises rare behind-the-scenes insights into how the epic came alive.
Anushka Shetty Shares Exclusive Details
During promotions of her upcoming film Ghaati, actress Anushka Shetty revealed that she already shot her part for the documentary. She explained that the project will offer deep insights into the making of Baahubali and help aspiring filmmakers understand the craft behind such a massive production.
This idea grew stronger after the success of the RRR documentary on Netflix. Earlier, a critic-turned-producer planned a book with accounts from the technicians of Baahubali. However, the team later decided that a documentary would tell the story better and reach a wider audience.
Why the Documentary Matters
Baahubali set new standards in visual storytelling and motivated producers to attempt big-budget films. By showing the challenges, scale, and creativity that shaped the franchise, the documentary will guide upcoming filmmakers and thrill fans with unseen footage and candid moments of the cast and crew.
Release Plans Still Under Wraps
The team has not yet announced when or where the documentary will release. However, considering the buzz around Baahubali: The Epic, fans expect an official update very soon.
Anushka Shetty’s Focus on Ghaati
At the same time, Anushka Shetty promotes her new film Ghaati in unique ways. She skipped on-ground promotions but still connected with fans. Recently, the makers released a phone call recording where her Baahubali co-star Rana Daggubati spoke with her about the film and her career choices.
Anushka described Ghaati as a story rooted in the lives of tribals. She said the plot uses marijuana and drug smuggling only as a backdrop. Her character Sheelavathu, forced into painful circumstances, finds redemption and transforms into a legend. She praised director Krish Jagarlamudi, recalling how he earlier gave her a memorable role in Vedam.
Anushka Plans a Stronger Screen Presence
Anushka confirmed that she will now take up films more regularly. Since Baahubali, she stayed very selective with her scripts, but she promised fans that from the end of this year, they will see her more often on screen.
With Baahubali: The Epic set for release and a documentary in the making, fans can expect an exciting festive season. Add Anushka’s comeback with Ghaati, and Telugu cinema clearly enters a thrilling new phase.
