Baahubali is our Gladiator: Rana Daggubati
Rana Daggubati, who plays one of main leads in SS Rajamouli’s Baahubali, equates the magnum-opus to the popular Hollywood film Gladiator in an interview. The film is simultaneously shot in Tamil and Telugu as a bi-lingual and the first part is set to release this summer. Studio Greeen has acquired the distribution rights for the film in Tamil Nadu for a whopping sum.
“It’s an epic action drama. It’s a war movie. It is fiction and is based on the story of two brothers played by Prabhas and me who fight for a kingdom. The action has been planned on a scale not seen in India so far. It’s huge. We’ve shot the war for about 120 days. It’s 120 days of just shooting action for the first part of Bahubali,” says Rana.
