Karan Johar to back SS Rajamouli’s Bahubali 2

Rumours were rife that KJo was planning to release only the first part of the magnum opus in Hindi, but it looks like the ace filmmaker is keen in backing its successor too

Director SS Rajamouli’s forthcoming project Bahubali: The Beginning  is all set to release on 10th July. Karan Johar who will be presenting the project is associating with the director for the very first time.

Although, news is that Karan Johar does not have one but two films association with Rajamouli. The producer turned director and now actor will be associating yet again with the ace director Rajamouli on another project. Karan will be presenting Rajamouli’s next outing Baahubali 2 as well.

Made on a magnificent scale, Baahubali is the first ever Indian film that transcends regional boundaries and has a pan-India appeal. Both of them are developing a great working relationship and it would be interesting to see these entities join hands again on another project.

It is said that Karan Johar has chalked out a lavish plan to promote Bahubali in huge scale and is in no rush to release the second part soon after the first part sees the light. A little birdie tells us that KJo will lock the release date of part 2 only after seeing the success of Bahubali: The Beginning.

While SS Rajamouli is hailed as the biggest and best of best, for Hindi cinema he is relatively unknown. The project marks coming together of two biggest creative forces from different areas of expertise. Karan has liked Rajamouli’s work in the past and is quite excited to join hands for yet another project. Moreover, Karan has also seen a few rushes of Baahubali and is very happy with the way it’s looking!
