“This will be a whole new experience for Baahubali fans,” producer Shobu Yarlagadda said, emphasizing that the film “has been re-envisioned using advanced technologies to elevate the grandeur of Rajamouli’s vision.”
Record-Breaking Pre-Sales Worldwide
Baahubali: The Epic has smashed pre-release records, becoming the biggest-ever opening for an Indian film re-release. According to trade sources, the film has already crossed ₹10 crore in pre-sales — ₹5 crore from India and another ₹5 crore from North America.
The feat surpasses the previous benchmarks set by Vijay’s Ghilli and Mahesh Babu’s Khaleja. For comparison, Ghillireportedly earned between ₹7.9 crore and ₹10 crore worldwide during its re-release, while Pawan Kalyan’s Gabbar Singhcollected ₹8 crore, and Khaleja ₹6.85 crore.
Trade analysts expect Baahubali: The Epic to not only dominate the re-release charts but also set global records for an Indian film comeback.
