Baahubali: The Epic, a combined version of Baahubali: The Beginning and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, is set to release on October 31, with Thursday night premieres. The film's runtime has been confirmed to be around 3 hours and 45 minutes, with the first half covering Baahubali: The Beginning and the second half continuing with Baahubali 2: The Conclusion.
Interestingly, Baahubali 2 gets more runtime than the first part, with the second half clocking in at over 120 minutes. The Telugu version's advances are looking strong, with opening day bookings already crossing the 5 Cr mark, suggesting a superb weekend at the box office.
The re-release has been censored with U/A(16+) and a runtime of 225 minutes. Producer Shobu Yarlagadda officially confirmed that the film will be screened in 150 IMAX locations worldwide, including 34 venues in India. The pan India bookings for Baahubali: The Epic will be open tomorrow across all formats, including IMAX, Dolby Cinema, EPIQ, 4DX, PCX, and more.
Baahubali: The Epic will release worldwide in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Hindi. While it's expected to open big in Telugu, the performance in other languages remains to be seen. The film's team has left no stone unturned in making it a grand spectacle, with trimmed scenes, songs, and transitions to create a tighter theatrical experience.
