“Bahubali ko Katappa ne kyun mara?! (Why did Katappa kill Bahubali?)”
The big question on everyone’s lips after watching the 2015 blockbuster hit Bahubali: The Beginning was finally answered with the release of Bahubali 2: The Conclusion on April 27.
After the massive cliffhanger that the first installation conclude[envoke_twitter_link]d with, expectedly, the sequel drew nothing short of a stampede for tickets[/envoke_twitter_link]. If anything, many theatres ran extra shows to accommodate the massive demand for tickets, and the film in fact drew in an impressive 500 crore INR even before release.
Friday is gonna be BIG
First time v r having
11 shows for a film in a single day& guess what, all of those shows HOUSEFUL#Bahubali2

Bahubali2, total shows in Bengaluru across 4 langs is 750/day & inexplicably not even 1 show in kannada.Wonder how can this be pro-kannada?

Was it worth the wait? As Twitter exploded with Tweets reviewing the film, we can safely assume that yes, it met all expectations, and then some!
#Bahubali2 is not releasing on EID , XMAS or Diwaali, it is releasing on Bahubali Day . HISTORY will be made. @ssrajamouli @AAFilmsIndia

And while there were some, who were a little letdown…
Okay done with #Bahubali2 . BB1 was better. Too lengthy. Dragged climax. High moments here and there. Songs were too bad. Disappointed.
