Baahubali 2 celeb reactions: Jr NTR, Nani say Indian cinema will be judged before, after Baahubali

“Kudos to Prabhas, @RanaDaggubati , Anushka and @meramyakrishnan for supporting @ssrajamouli ‘s vision with brilliant performances. A big shout out to @Shobu_ & Prasad who funded this dream & to all other actors and technicians who brought @ssrajamouli ‘s vision to life. And @mmkeeravaani garu breathed life into each and every frame of #Baahubali2 with his music (sic),” he added. Jr NTR entered the Telugu industry with Rajamouli’s debut film Student No 1, a big box office hit in 2001.

Actor Akhil Akkineni opined that there will be “before and after” Baahubali franchise in the history of Indian cinema. “The whole cast and crew. PRABHAS and RANA for dedicating 5 years of hard work dedication and passion to a film n turning it in to #Bahubali. Please go watch this magnum opus in a theatre and give this film its due respect. Thank you @ssrajamouli sir for what you have done for us (sic),” he wrote on his Twitter account.

“Still on a high of what I just saw. Can’t believe that Indian cinema has come this far. Now it’s before #Bahubali and after #Bahubali,” he added.

Thanking Rajamouli for the film actor Nani appreciated the director with a famous dialogue borrowed from Baahubali 2. “Nuvvu maa pakkana vunnanthavaruku Telugu cinema gurinchi matladey magadu Inka putta ledhu @ssrajamouli mama (sic),” he tweeted. A rough translation of his tweet is, “As long as you are there with us, no man can talk bad about Telugu cinema.” #Baahubali is not just a film anymore .. It’s a celebration .. Thank you team baahubali .. U made us all super proud (sic),” he added.

Actor Kalyanram Nandamuri‏ was also in awe of the film. “More than “Why Kattappa Killed Baahubali”, we should ask “How did @ssrajamouli make #Baahubali2 “? Outstanding film that makes us proud. Prabhas was fantastic in the title role. Ably supported by @RanaDaggubati , Anushka, Ramya Krishna garu, Sathya Raj and Nasser garu. Congratulations to @arkamediaworks , @Shobu_ and Prasad garu. Special mention for @mmkeeravaani garu’s brilliant background score,” he said on his Twitter page.

Tamil actor Sivakarthikeyan said that he is waiting to watch the film, probably referring to the delay in the release of the film in Tamil Nadu due to financial issues. “Wishes to #Baahubali team for a record breaking success..waiting to watch @ssrajamouli sir’s magnum opus..@RanaDaggubati @tamannaahspeaks(sic),” he tweeted.
