'Baahubali' makers announces re-release date; Rajamouli's two-parter epic to arrive in combined format

In April, producer Shobu Yarlagada, who backed Baahubali - The Beginning and Baahubali - The Conclusion had announced that the Prabhas-starrer would get a re-release on big screens in October, to celebrate the tenth anniversary of its release. On Thursday, director SS Rajamouli announced that the two films would get a combined re-release on October 31, 2025.

 

Sharing the announcement on his social media handles, Rajamouli wrote: "Baahubali…The beginning of many journeys. Countless memories. Endless inspiration. It’s been 10 years. Marking this special milestone with #BaahubaliTheEpic, a two-part combined film. In theatres worldwide on October 31, 2025."

 

The announcement can be found on the film's official social media handles too, with the caption: "10 years ago, a question united the nation… Now the question and the answer return together in ONE grand epic. #BaahubaliTheEpic releases worldwide on October 31st, 2025." 

 

An epic spanning multiple generations, the Baahubali films were born out of Rajamouli's love for classic mythological and comicbook stories. He created the screenplays based on a story by V. Vijayendra Prasad. MM Keeravani produced the chart-busting original music and background score.

 

Starring Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Anushka Shetty, Tamannaah Bhatia, Ramya Krishnan, Nassar, and Sathyaraj among others, the big-scale fantasy epic was made on a budget of Rs 180 cr and grossed Rs 650 cr worldwide. Baahubali: The Beginning won two National Awards — Best Feature Film and Best Special Effects.

 

The makers had earlier teased, in March, plans of re-release when he asked followers whether they should go ahead with the plan. 

 

The mention of "new reveals" and "few epic surprises" have led some to speculate whether there will be any additional footage or bonus material that would delight fans of the franchise.
