Not every masterpiece can be perfect…can they?Baahubali is on its way to be India’s highest grossing film ever, with Salman Khan’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan close to its heels. The magnum opus has been much praised for its lavish storytelling, intense performances and eye for detail!However, no matter how big your film is or how big you are, there are chances that you might stumble once. Though Baahubali has been complimented for for its intricate detailing, perfection is one area where it lacked, as our viewers have found out. Here are ten such weakness or bloopers that Baahubali failed to cover up!
There is a scene in the film where a huge golden statute is being erected in the city, and one of the workers, an old man accidentally lets go of the rope. But the hero saves the day, as he valiantly catches hold of the rope, before any further damage is inflicted. Impressive! …Though there is a slight issue that the rope is still slack, even when Baahubali is pulling at it!Now this is one blooper that almost every film with a flashback device suffers from…If you have seen the film, you are aware that Kattappa is narrating the father Baahubali’s tale to the son Baahubali. However, there are a few scenes in the narrative where the old warrior is not even present, yet he explains these in detail to his listener. Apart from being Baahubali’s killer, is Kattappa also a seer?
In the Dheevara song, Prabhas gets entangled in a web of creepers, but in the next scene, he is shown dangling on a single creeper! The magic of love!In that epic scene where the hero is scaling the mountain, he slips and falls a few metres, but there is not a single scratch on his body!As Prabhas scales the mountain, he has no slippers, but in the fight scene that happens immediately, a pair of slippers magically appear on his feet! Voila!I know it’s erotic to see that knot on the blouse being untied…but did you have forcefully insert it in the scene just for that effect?Prabhas and Rana’s costumes change before, during and after the item song even when the events preceding and succeeding it are set at the same time….Anushka Shetty is shown collecting dry leaves in the most cleanest of all courtyards!
In Mahabharata, Sanjaya was granted the power to see the big battle from the confines of his palace without actually being at the scene, so that he narrate the same to the blind Dhritarashtra. It seems the elders in Baahubali also have the same power, as they manage to know about every little conflict happening in the battlefield!If both father and son Baahubali look like the same i.e. like Prabhas, why don’t their child avatars resemble each other? What kind of selective metamorphosis is this?
