MUMBAI: Sony MAX, a Hindi movies channel from Sony Pictures Networks, is bringing the epic saga from the Kingdom of Mahishmati, Baahubali 2: The conclusion. Directed by the showman of southern India movies, S.S. Rajamouli, this extravagant heroic tale of Baahubali will be premiering on Sony MAX on 8 October at 1pm.
Boasting of awe-inspiring finesse, this larger than life story of Baahubali’s unfinished tale will reveal the biggest question of why Kattappa killed Baahubali. Creating a new landmark for Indian cinema, this magnum opus gives viewers a glimpse into the fairytale world while Kattappa narrates the story of Mahishmati.
Starring Prabhas, Rana Daggubati and Anushka Shetty in pivotal roles, this revenge drama is a visual treat for viewers while it takes them through a flashback into life of Baahubali.
S.S. Rajamouli says: “Sony MAX had done a brilliant job in the way they promoted & marketed Baahubali in 2015 and we were hoping that they get the telecast rights this time too. We are more than delighted to know that India’s No.1 Hindi movie channel is going to be our television partners once again. They treated our film like their own baby and we couldn’t have asked for a better partner to showcase our movie across millions of households.”
Actor Prabhas says: “TV has a greater connect with the masses and I really feel that the impact of a film gets extremely enhanced as it reaches out to millions through television. It definitely guarantees a better reach and a lot of people out there tune in to Sony MAX to watch movies. I’m extremely happy about the world television premiere of 'Baahubali 2' on Sony MAX and I am excited that more people will get to watch the movie.”
Actor Rana Daggubati says: “It takes a lot to do a film like Baahubali. A large part of this is actually allocated to the camaraderie that the entire team shared. All of us stuck to a vision Rajamouli had given us. We really belonged to a world, we just believed in Rajamouli’s vision. We knew this was the biggest visual spectacle coming out.”
