SS Rajamouli's 'Baahubali' movies are set to take over the big screen soon. Even though the films have been replayed on TV channels across the country in almost all languages, the makers have planned to treat the fans to the theatrical release one more time.

As reported by Gulte, the makers are trying to combine both the 'Baahubali' films into one, by introducing several new cuts to the whole narrative before it releases again. This means that 'Baahubali: The Beginning' and 'Baahubali: The Conclusion' will be clubbed together into one cinematic experience, with some new cuts to make it look more suitable for the screen.

The film's re-release date has not been scheduled yet, but the buzz is already high, especially among Prabhas's fans, who played the titular role in the franchise. 'Baahubali' movies remain one of the path-breaking pieces of Indian cinema, which re-wrote the box office history for the industry, and also put India on the global map. This was one of the first Rajamouli global entertainers - a legacy that he continued with 'RRR', which went on to win an Oscar for Best Original Song for 'Naatu Naatu'.

The 'Baahubali' movies also featured Anushka Shetty, Tamannaah Bhatia, Rana Daggubati, Ramya Krishnan, and Sathyaraj, among others. The first film was originally released a decade ago, in July 2015, while the second film hit the screens in April 2017.
