Released in 2015 and 2017, the Baahubali franchise went on to recreate the box office records all over India. The film’s protagonist and antagonist – Prabhas and Rana – attained immense popularity across the country for their power-packed performance.
However, senior hero Suman had some interesting things to say about the portrayal of the hero and villain in Baahubali. Heaping praises on Baahubali’s director Rajamouli for his unmatchable presentation of his villains, Suman said, “Rana is the real hero of Baahubali, not Prabhas. If you notice, it’s Rana who falls in the fire and dies in the climax, but Prabhas didn’t even touch him. This shows that Rana’s character was powerful till the end,” said Suman.
“It takes a lots of guts to showcase an antagonist’s death in such manner and it’s possible only for Rajamouli. It’s not a big deal if a hero bashes up 40 goons in the climax,” Suman concluded.
