Even ten years after the Baahubali phenomenon began, SS Rajamouli’s filmmaking prowess continues to resonate strongly with audiences across the globe. The overwhelming response to Baahubali: The Epic — a remastered, condensed cut combining both installments of the iconic duology — stands as proof. Released on October 31, the special anniversary edition has witnessed a sensational reception in theatres everywhere.
Marking its tenth anniversary, Team Baahubali curated this unified, 220-minute feature to offer audiences a nostalgic, larger-than-life theatre experience. The idea worked remarkably well, with the re-release not just drawing crowds but also rewriting box office records. The premiere shows alone recorded robust collections across several regions.
According to trade estimates, Baahubali: The Epic grossed around ₹30 crore worldwide in just two days, an extraordinary achievement for a re-release. The franchise’s enduring craze is evident from the strong occupancy levels through the weekend, despite new Telugu releases sharing screens.
Industry analysts are now watching closely to see how far the film can go. There is growing buzz that it may become the highest-grossing re-release ever. However, whether it can breach the coveted ₹100-crore milestone remains uncertain. With new releases like The Girl Friend and Jatadhara arriving next week—both carrying positive expectations—the box office momentum for Baahubali: The Epic may slow down moving into its second weekend.
For now, the re-release stands as a celebration of a cinematic legacy that refuses to fade. Crossing ₹100 crore would be a historic feat for any re-release, but even if the numbers taper off, Baahubali: The Epic has already reaffirmed its timeless impact on Indian cinema.
