SS Rajamouli Recalls One of His Most Depressing Moments In Filmmaking Career

Hyderabad, May 11 - SS Rajamouli is one of the most celebrated and successful Indian filmmakers of all time, and his movies have paved the path for other filmmakers to dream big. ## One of the landmark moments in Rajamouli's career is the Prabhas-fronted Baahubali film series which opened the doors for Telugu cinema on the national front. The two-part film is the highest-grossing franchise in India. ## While "Baahubali" gave Rajamouli nationwide recognition, the filmmaker revealed that it also gave him one of the most depressing moments of his filmmaking career. During an event hosted by his brother-in-law Dr. AV Guruva Reddy, Rajamouli revealed that even though Baahubali - The Beggining got a positive reception all over, he left highly disappointed with reviews from the Telugu people.## "On the day of the release of Baahubali: The Beginning, it was the first pan-Indian film, so we released it in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, the whole of North India, America, and UAE. We had a positive talk all across the globe. But our main bread and butter are from Telugu-speaking states, (and there) it had a very bad reception. People were saying it is one of the biggest disasters of the film industry".## He further revealed that since the movie was a huge budgeted one, he feared worst if it had become a disaster as that would have put the producer in a huge financial crisis. Thankfully, the paying audience didn't entertain the negativity and made Baahubali the biggest blockbuster of that time before "Baahubali 2" shattered all the records everywhere. ## The first part of the epic historical drama grossed approx. 650 crores worldwide against the budget of approx. 180 crores, before "Baahubali 2" scored over 1700 crores and is currently the second highest-grossing Indian film of all time.## Stay tuned...
