Bahubali: The Epic Revisited – A Must-Watch Review by Kairam Vashi 🎬

In his review for The Hollywood Reporter India, Kairam Vashi revisits Baahubali: The Epic, a grand re-cut that merges Baahubali: The Beginning (2015) and Baahubali: The Conclusion (2017) into a single cinematic experience. Kairam acknowledges that while the film’s emotional flow occasionally falters due to condensed transitions and patchwork narration, the visual and auditory splendor remains breathtaking. He emphasizes that The Epic is less about discovering something new and more about reliving the awe of SS Rajamouli’s monumental imagination—its scale, audacity, and technical brilliance that continue to define Indian cinema’s global footprint. Kairam goes beyond nostalgia to highlight the intricate storytelling details and performances that stand the test of time—from Anushka Shetty’s poised portrayal of Devasena to Prabhas’ enduring charisma as Baahubali. He notes Rajamouli’s unparalleled ability to blend emotion with spectacle, celebrating every department—from Senthil Kumar’s cinematography to MM Keeravani’s rousing score—for creating history on screen. For Kairam, Baahubali: The Epic isn’t just a film; it’s an emotion reignited. #BaahubaliTheEpic #THRIndia #KairamVashi
