Bahubali Review: The Perfect Movie Hangover

Indian cinema is no more playing with half-baked VFX for sure. With Bahubali: The Beginning, filmmaking in India surely created a benchmark which will motivate and inspire other filmmakers to create cinematic marvel. I was thrilled to see its trailer on Youtube month ago. It created an inner urge to see what Bahubali has in store for me. I never expected a Troy, LOTR or a 300 from Indian film industry in near future but Bahubali proved me wrong.

The whole movie was a work of art, the finest masterpiece and a huge epic drama. Larger than life imageries, fantastic war techniques and an outstanding story telling make Bahubali the biggest blockbuster in India. Every frame of the movie was handcrafted with panache. Mr. S. S. Rajamouli, the director of this epic movie has done what no other filmmaker in India has done so far. He gave us a film to be proud of.

The film exudes excellence throughout. I am a big Lord of the Rings fan and by watching this movie, I could see our own LOTR. Bahubali is fully Indian, from clothes to location, from music to VFX, CGI, this movie created an aura of magnificence. There are many highlights in this movie that will give you goose bumps. Prabhas (the protagonist) plays the perfect frontman in this movie. Rana Daggubati's character surely gave us an idea of the first Indian super villain. Sathyaraj as Kattappa was brilliant and Prabhakar as Kalakeya king stole the show with his new found diction Kiliki. All praises for Srinivas Mohan, the VFX chief who rendered unseen visuals. After watching this movie, I had a long good hangover and I surely love it.
