Overview
- Shobu Yarlagadda confirms the unified presentation plays Baahubali: The Beginning, a regular interval, then Baahubali 2, running about three hours and 40 minutes.
- He says box office returns are not the priority, describing the rollout as a 10th‑anniversary event focused on the theatrical experience.
- There will be no Baahubali 3 reveal tied to this release, though the team plans to explore new stories in the universe as part of a broader Phase 2.
- Yarlagadda dismisses casting chatter, stating the lead role was conceived for Prabhas from the outset and Hrithik Roshan was never approached.
- The special cut is set to include restored visuals, selective trims and some previously unseen scenes, with releases planned in IMAX, 4DX, D-Box, Dolby Cinema and EPIQ across Telugu, Tamil, Hindi and Malayalam.
