Rana Daggubati Slams People For Comparing Baahubali 2 To Hollywood Films! Here’s What He Said!
The whole world of entertainment is completely filled with Bahubali Stories. The Baahubali actors and director SS Rajamouli has been the talk of the town. The film is creating many records in front of Box Office and also breaking many records in Indian Film industry.
The film has been receiving much-needed love and appreciation from not just the Indian audience but also from cine buffs from all around the world.
Social media is filled with the posts on Baahubali-2, people called it as an epic drama India has ever seen. The visual effects in the movie were compared to the leading Hollywood movies like Ben-Hur and Harry Potter, there’s no doubt in that, Rajamouli has clearly raised the standards of filmmaking in India and raised the bars of perfection.
Yes, Baahubali 2 with its extraordinary visuals, a story related to our own roots and the great storytelling managed to blow everyone’s mind. It was a totally fresh concept and experience for regular cine-goers but those who are fond of Hollywood films praised the grandeur by calling it “A Hollywood kind of Experience”.
But, the Baahubali star lead actor Rana Daggubati has rubbished all the comparisons of Baahubali to Hollywood films.
During an Interview with HT, Rana who played the role of Bhallaldeva in film said-
“This was effectively a Telugu film that was dubbed in Multiple languages but we saw it together as a nation. We followed the old Indian way of storytelling. Nothing was inspired from the west or taken from the west. It is our tale.”
Rana also praised the filmmaker SS Rajamouli who created this onscreen magic-
“I learnt a lot as an actor and his sincerity towards storytelling is something i really appreciate.”
Talking about his collaboration with Karan Johar for the Hindi version he said-
“We set out to make a big war film. We spent far more than a regular regional or national movie would. So we need the right parents – be it in Hindi, Tamil or Malayalam. And Karan has been a great business partner. It was Karan who I first brought the film to. He knew what we were making and positioned the film really well. The results are for us to see as well. The film in its Hindi dubbed version alone has crossed the Rs 500 crore mark.”
Well, we agree that Baahubali is totally different from Hollywood films. The film is made in India, the story is related to our roots and culture and the way SS Rajamouli has narrated it is out of this world. Comparing it with any Hollywood film will be the insult of Rajamouli’s craft and every member of the team who put their best foot forward for the accomplishment of this cinematic legend.
