Baahubali 2 Cashes In On Hype And Herd Mentality

Interestingly even the Hindi version of the film, which stars Prabhas, Rana Daggu-batti, Ramya Krishna, Anush-ka Shetty and Tamannaah in lead roles, has already grossed ₹300 crore.

The south film industry’s living legend joined the chorus of fans singing praises of the film when he took to his social networking handle and termed the film as “Indian cinema’s pride”, and saluted director Rajamouli and his team. Lauding the masterpiece, Rajinikanth tweeted, “’Baahubali 2’ Indian cinema’s pride. My salutes to god’s own child Rajamouli and his team.”Humbled by Rajinikanth’s kind words, director Rajamouli replied saying, “THALAIVAAAA... Feeling like god himself blessed us... our team is on cloud 9... Anything couldn’t be bigger...”
