In the books of Indian cinema, Baahubali has indeed carved a special place. With the kind of success the film achieved, it set a new benchmark at the box office. While the film transported audiences to a whole new world, it also paved the way for pan-India films, which have now become a trend.

Although it has been many years since the Baahubali franchise was released, its fever seems to have taken over Australian cricketer David Warner, prompting even director S. S. Rajamouli to join in the fun.

A few days ago, David Warner took to his social media to share some pictures of himself donning the Baahubali costume. Now, reposting it, director S. S. Rajamouli commented –

“Hi Warner, time to suit up like a true Maahishmathi King. Sending you a royal helmet!

This is truly next-level madness that still prevails beyond borders for Baahubali. While the film broke records upon its release, its craze remains strong even a decade later. Be it Baahubali: The Beginning or Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, both films are among the biggest blockbusters of all time. The franchise is widely regarded as one of the most influential in Indian cinema.

Directed by S. S. Rajamouli, the film featured Prabhas in a dual role alongside Rana Daggubati, Anushka Shetty, Tamannaah Bhatia, Ramya Krishnan, Sathyaraj, and Nassar. A combined version of The Beginning and The Conclusion, titled Baahubali: The Epic, is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on 31 October 2025.
