The filmmaker has yet to provide further details regarding the cast and storyline of the series. But what’s guaranteed is that it will explore the ‘Bahubali’ universe, offering a deeper dive into its characters and narratives.
However, this is not the first occasion where ‘Bahubali’ has ventured into the realm of animation. In 2017, the filmmaker launched a four-season animated series named ‘Bahubali: The Lost Legends.’ The series was made available on Amazon Prime Video.
Coming to the films, ‘Bahubali: The Beginning’ shattered numerous records, not only in India but also on the international stage, making waves in countries like Japan, China, and major European regions. Its sequel, ‘Bahubali 2: The Conclusion’ garnered an astounding Rs. 1810 crores, solidifying its status as the second highest-grossing film in the history of the Indian box office. Both films boasted an impressive ensemble cast comprising talented stars such as Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Anushka Shetty, Ramya Krishnan, Sathyaraj, and Nassar.
After the worldwide success of the filmmaker’s recent project ‘RRR’ and its Oscar-winning song ‘Naatu Naatu,’ Rajamouli’s reputation as a great storyteller keeps growing. Audiences are getting excited about ‘Bahubali: Crown of Blood’ and are curious to see how he will make this epic story even better.
