The record breaking trailer of Baahubali: The Conclusion is
here. Trending at #1 position, this video is everything that we expected,
except it still does not reveal that ‘Katappa
ne Baahubali ko kyun maara’
In the country dominated by Bollywood and Hindi cinema, Baahubali:
The Beginning came and took 100 Cr club movies head on, to become the highest
grossing Indian movie in India (third highest Indian movie globally). With the intriguing
conclusion teaser and the suspense of ‘Mahendra Baahubali murder case’, the
fans were impatiently waiting for The Conclusion
to come.
Prabhas’ introduction as Amrendra Baahubali will leave the viewers
as awe-struck as the crowd shown in the scene. The blood stained marks that characters
leave in the starting shots clearly depict that The Conclusion colour this ‘khoon ka badla’ story.
The background score adds to the spine chilling impact
created by the sequence. The spirit of revenge in the score looks inspired by a
Sunny Deol movie – wonder if the voice in the background is actually his
dialogue from Damini or Gadar-Ek Prem Katha.
As the quick flip recap of the first movie goes through, you
already have goose bumps. The editing team has ensured that we get on an
emotional roller coaster with the sequence of hope – elation – romance – action
– deceit – revenge, each more engrossing that the other.
From the world of high pitched drama, you are suddenly
transformed into the beautifully shot romantic teasers from the story of
Baahubali and Devasena, and then as they are moving towards the management of
the kingdom, and associated struggles, comes a splash of ice-cold water with the
dialogue – ‘Jab tak tum mere sath ho
mujhe maarne wala paida nahi hua mama’, almost as if it is straight from a
Shakespearan novel.
If you thought that the landscapes of The Beginning were mesmerising,
the landscapes and aerial shots shown or rather created in The Conclusion are
breath taking, especially the one with the elephant and water fall. Can’t
believe someone could actually think and create an imagery like this!
The fight sequences coupled with the VFX effects have
enhanced the grandeur of not only this movie but of also how Indian cinema is
perceived. Each sequence is so well crafted, it seems to be coming out of a Michelangelo
painting. This formula movie goes on to redefine the perception of both Indian
cinema and regional cinema.
While major portions of the movie are VFXified, the actors
playing the key characters – Prabhas, Rana, Anushka, Ramya and Sathyaraj
deliver perfection in each frame, exemplifying the impact of each scene. The teaser
of the climax – the ultimate fight between Prabhas and Rana adds to the intensity
of the drama.
Basis the trailer, I think that this epic drama by S. S.
Rajamouli will get a 4/5 rating.
