Baahubali: The Epic Runtime Revealed – Is It Really 5 Hours 27 Minutes?

Baahubali: The Epic’s Runtime Sparks Debate—5Hours 27 Minutes?!

As Baahubali marks its 10-year milestone, the makers have announced a grand cinematic celebration: Baahubali: The Epic, a combined version of both parts. But the runtime has fans talking.

Slated for a theatrical re-release on October 31, Baahubali: The Epic is a special edit merging Baahubali: The Beginning and Baahubali: The Conclusion into one cohesive experience. However, when BookMyShow listed the runtime as 5 hours and 27 minutes, it triggered a wave of concern across social media.

Many fans, while excited to revisit the grandeur on the big screen, expressed doubts about sitting through such an extended runtime, nearly six hours, including an interval.

To calm the growing buzz, the Baahubali team responded with humor and assurance:

“Haha… No worries! We won’t take up your whole day. It’ll be around the same time as an exciting IPL match.”

This cheeky clarification suggests that the final runtime could be around four hours, making it more manageable for theatrical viewing. Still, fans will have to wait until release day to know the exact length.

Directed by SS Rajamouli, Baahubali stars Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Anushka Shetty, Tamannaah Bhatia, Ramya Krishna, Satyaraj, and Nasser—a cast that redefined Indian epic cinema and created a global phenomenon.

Shruti Haasan on Gabbar Singh: “It Gave Me My First Home of Success”

Shruti Haasan: “Gabbar Singh Gave Me My First Home of Success”

Shruti Haasan has credited Gabbar Singh as the turning point in her career, calling it her “first home of success” in Telugu cinema. In a recent podcast appearance, the actress opened up about her breakthrough role opposite Pawan Kalyan in the 2012 blockbuster that changed the trajectory of her career.

Speaking about how she landed the part, Shruti revealed:

“I was supposed to be in Pawan Kalyan sir’s movie Gabbar Singh, a remake of Dabangg. Then, there was some issue, and I wasn’t going to be part of it. But director Harish Shankar really fought for me. He believed I was perfect for the role—and once I did it, my life just changed.”

The film’s massive success not only catapulted Shruti to stardom but also cemented her as a bankable lead in both Telugu and Tamil cinema.

“That’s how I have the career I have today—because Telugu gave me my first home of success,” she added.

Shruti also reminisced about an emotional moment in Hyderabad when she received the Filmfare Award on behalf of her father, Kamal Haasan.

“I told the audience that I would return one day to get an award of my own. Gabbar Singh made that dream come true.”

Discussing Pawan Kalyan’s evolution from cinema to politics, she shared admiration for his grounded nature:

“He’s someone who talks about farming and being close to villages. If you think about it, a person like that—who understands both worlds—is meant to be in politics.”

Talking about her working experience with the Power Star, Shruti said,

“I was intimidated at first. He was a huge star. But he was always very sweet and respectful. Just like Vijay sir in Tamil—they’re quiet, grounded gentlemen.”

With Gabbar Singh, Shruti didn’t just find cinematic success—she found a place in the hearts of Telugu audiences that continue to support her even today.

In a candid conversation on the BeerBiceps podcast, Shruti Haasan opened up about her experience working with the legendary actor. She said,

“My father and he (Rajinikanth) are the two iconic pillars of Tamil cinema. I’ve always known him as Superstar Rajini sir, like everyone else. But filming Coolie gave me a chance to understand him on a more personal level.”

Shruti described Rajinikanth as a blend of contrasting yet charismatic traits.

“He’s razor-sharp, very shrewd, but also warm and cool. I even told him—he’s very cool and easy to talk to. He radiates positive energy and doesn’t carry his massive stardom like a burden. Everyone feels genuinely happy working around him.”

Her admiration is shared by the rest of the cast, as behind-the-scenes videos and interviews from the Coolie team continue to trend across social media platforms, further amplifying the buzz.

Ram Gopal Varma’s A-Rated Film Saaree Now Streaming Uncut on Aha

RGV’s A-Rated Film Saaree Now Streaming on Aha in Uncut Version

Ram Gopal Varma’s controversial adult-rated film Saaree has now landed on Aha, streaming in its uncut A-rated version. While the film failed to make waves at the box office, its digital debut has sparked fresh conversations online, especially among viewers curious about the film’s bold content.

About the Film

  • Title: Saaree

  • Written by: Ram Gopal Varma

  • Directed by: Giri Krishna Kamal

  • Streaming Platform: Aha

  • Rating: A (Adults Only)

  • Lead Cast: Aaradhya Devi, Satya Yadu, Sahil Sambhyal, Appaji Ambarish

  • Music Composer: Anand Raag

  • Producer: Ravi Shankar Varma

The film attracted headlines for its controversial theme and adult content, but failed to attract footfalls during its theatrical release. Now, the OTT release of the uncut version may offer the film a second chance with digital audiences.

Will OTT Viewers Embrace Saaree?

Given Ram Gopal Varma’s track record of provocative storytelling, Saaree was expected to push boundaries. However, it drew flak from critics for its lack of substance and over-reliance on shock value. Whether OTT viewers respond differently to the film’s themes and storytelling remains to be seen.

Aha’s decision to stream the film without censorship suggests they are targeting a niche adult audience that seeks bold and experimental narratives.

Adivi Sesh Says Stories Thrive Without Ego – Talks About Dacoit & Mrunal Thakur

“Stories Thrive When Ego Takes a Backseat,” Says Adivi Sesh on His Upcoming Film Dacoit

Adivi Sesh, known for his multi-faceted contributions to Telugu cinema as an actor, writer, and director, is gearing up for the release of his next big project—Dacoit. The Telugu-Hindi bilingual, directed by Shaneil Deo, features Mrunal Thakur as the female lead and promises to be a genre-bending romantic action drama.

In a recent interview with Mid-Day, Adivi Sesh offered insights into his creative process, emphasizing the importance of storytelling over stardom. “Stories thrive when ego takes a backseat,” Sesh remarked, calling Dacoit a two-hero film, where both protagonists share equal emotional weight.

A Two-Lead Narrative That Breaks Stereotypes

“Dacoit is not a hero-centric film,” said Sesh. “It’s a love story that needs both leads to be strong, layered, and emotionally vulnerable. From the very beginning, I wrote it as a story of two equally important characters.”

Sesh praised his co-star Mrunal Thakur, saying her presence and commitment brought life to the story he envisioned. “As outsiders to the industry, there’s a shared sense of purpose between us,” he noted. “That connection adds honesty to our performances. We’re not just showing up; we’re building something.”

About Dacoit

  • Director: Shaneil Deo (known for Kshanam, Goodachari)

  • Cast: Adivi Sesh, Mrunal Thakur

  • Language: Telugu-Hindi Bilingual

  • Genre: Romantic action drama

  • Written by: Adivi Sesh

With Dacoit, Sesh and Deo are set to redefine genre tropes, moving away from male-dominated narratives and toward collaborative, character-driven storytelling.

Why This Matters

Amid ongoing conversations about gender representation and collaborative storytelling in Indian cinema, Adivi Sesh’s stance resonates with evolving audience expectations. His focus on equality, humility, and creative integrity signals a refreshing shift in Tollywood’s narrative priorities.

OTT Gem: Malayalam Real-Life Drama Based on 2003 Muthanga Massacre Now Streaming in Telugu

True stories continue to strike an emotional chord with OTT audiences, and the latest to join this list is a powerful Malayalam film based on a real-life tragedy. This critically acclaimed movie, which was released in theaters earlier this year, is now streaming on OTT platforms—including a Telugu dubbed version—and has quickly earned the status of a must-watch tearjerker.

The film brings to life the tragic and powerful events surrounding the 2003 Muthanga tribal protest in Kerala, where Adivasis clashed with the police in a fight for their land and survival. With heart-wrenching scenes and a raw portrayal of systemic oppression, the film has earned both critical acclaim and commercial success.

A Movie That Moved Millions

  • Based on True Events: The movie depicts the real-life encounter between Kerala police and Muthanga tribals, who were forcefully evicted from their lands.

  • Box Office Success: Made on a modest budget of ₹10 crore, the film earned ₹30+ crore worldwide, tripling its investment.

  • IMDB Rating: A solid 7.5/10, reflecting both its storytelling strength and emotional impact.

  • Early OTT Release: The movie hit the OTT platform a day earlier than scheduled, much to the delight of eager fans.

  • Available in Telugu: In addition to Malayalam, the film is now available with a Telugu dub, expanding its reach to a wider South Indian audience.

Why This Film Stands Out

Following the trend of real-event-based content, like Twenty-Three (based on the Chilakaluripet bus burning case) and the Hunt web series (based on the Rajiv Gandhi assassination), this film dives into a dark chapter of Kerala’s recent history—the brutal police action against Muthanga tribals, who were simply demanding their right to land and livelihood.

Directed with gritty realism and featuring standout performances, the film doesn’t just tell a story—it forces viewers to confront uncomfortable truths about society, politics, and justice.

Sanjay Dutt Says Bollywood Has Lost Its Passion at KD – The Devil Teaser Launch

Sanjay Dutt Reflects on Bollywood’s Decline: “It’s Lost Its Passion”

Veteran actor Sanjay Dutt made a powerful statement during the grand teaser launch of KD—The Devil, held in Hyderabad. While celebrating the upcoming pan-India action spectacle, Dutt also took a moment to speak candidly about the creative differences between Bollywood and South Indian cinema.

Dutt, who plays the antagonist in KD, expressed deep appreciation for the work ethic and dedication he experienced on South Indian film sets. “I take back with me the passion from Telugu cinema… something Bollywood has lost,” he said, drawing attention from fans and industry insiders alike. “It’s not about chasing numbers here. It’s about making good films, and that’s something I miss back home.”

When asked to elaborate, the actor reflected on his journey in Hindi cinema, working alongside legends like Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Sanjeev Kumar, and Dilip Kumar. “In those days, the script and story were king. Music mattered. Every voice on set contributed to the soul of the film.”

Dutt lamented the current obsession with box office numbers, saying, “Today, numbers are written on paper instead of scripts. That’s the shift that worries me.”

Recalling a moment from his past, Dutt shared, “During a project with Mahesh Manjrekar, we shot for three days without sleep. That was the kind of passion we had. And I see that same fire again—here, in the South.”

Directed by Prem and starring Dhruva Sarja in the lead, KD – The Devil is being produced by KVN Productions. Designed as a massive pan-India action entertainer, the film will release in Kannada, Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, and Malayalam.
