Baahubali (English: The One with the Strong Arms) is a two-part Indian bilingual epic film directed by S. S. Rajamouli, made in Telugu and Tamil languages. The first part, subtitled The Beginning, was released on 10 July 2015. The second part, titled The Conclusion is scheduled to be released on 28th April 2017. Part 1 was shot at a budget of ₹120 crore (US$18 million) while the production of Part 2 has not yet been completed
Because it is a period piece, efforts were taken to keep anachronistic sounds and visuals from appearing in the film. The shooting of the film started at Rock Gardens in Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh from 6 July 2013. During the filming in 2014, Telugu Film Federation Employees were on strike. Filming locations included Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad , Kerala and Bulgaria. Manu Jagadh designed art for the film.
In February 2011, S. S. Rajamouli announced that his next film would star Telugu actor Prabhas. In January 2013, he announced that the working title was Baahubali, though it would later be finalised.P. M. Satheesh stated that much effort was taken to keep the recording free of anachronistic sounds of modern machinery. Prabhas, Rana and Anushka practiced sword fighting, while Prabhas and Rana learned horse riding. It was later decided to make it a two part film which would release by 2015. On why the film was split into two parts, Rajamouli said, "The story, about two warring brothers for a kingdom, is so big that one film is not enough. We tried but we were losing some of the emotional quotient hence the second release after a gap of 10 months." Tamil lyricist Madhan Karky was selected to write the dialogues for the Tamil version. He said that his dialogues would be along the lines of yesteryear epic historical movies like Manohara (1954) and Nadodi Mannan (1958) and that they would be in chaste Tamil. The film's action sequences were choreographed by Peter Hein who stated that efforts were being made to keep the visuals as a period film. For a particular action sequence, Peter Hein had to handle around 2000 stuntmen and elephants.K. K. Senthil Kumar was selected to handle the film's cinematography. Director S.S.Rajamouli said that he was inspired from epic Mahabharata in making Baahubali. The story of Baahubali: The Beginning and Baahubali: The Conclusion is set in Mahishmati kingdom.
