What Did Koreans Ask Rajamouli?
After ruling the worldwide box-office in July and August, India’s biggest motion picture Baahubali is now reigning over several prestigious film festivals across the world. This afternoon, Baahubali was shown at the Busan International Film Festival in Korea. Needless to say, the Koreans loved the film.
The excitement didn’t stop here. Soon after the film’s screening, Rajamouli was surrounded by a large group of Korean and other Asian audiences for autographs and selfiies. Tweeting about his experience, Rajamouli said that the audiences majorly asked him about two questions.
While the first question from the excited audiences was ‘when will the film’s second part release?’ Rajamouli then left his Twitter followers in suspense as he said, ‘you know what is the second question.’ Soon, Jakkanna’s fans started giving out the one question which has been most frequently asked by all those who watched Baahubali, ‘why did Kattappa kill Baahubali?’ Well, looks like even the Koreans are amused with the film’s most mysterious ending.
