The re-edited version of the beloved saga, Baahubali: The Epic, has returned to theatres amid tremendous fanfare and box-office buzz. Audiences flocked back to cinema halls to relive the grandeur, visuals and drama of the combined experience of the original two-part series.
While the theatrical run is underway, a key question remains unanswered: Which streaming platform will secure its digital rights? The earlier films in the franchise — Baahubali: The Beginning and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion — were available on various OTT platforms but have recently been removed from one major service in India. Meanwhile, they continue to appear on other platforms in select languages. The rights landscape appears to be in flux as distributors and streamers await clarity on the re-edited version.
For fans, this means there is currently no official announcement regarding where Baahubali: The Epic will debut digitally. Whether the makers will stick with existing platforms or opt for a new global streamer remains to be seen. Until then, viewers who wish to revisit the world of Mahishmati must head to the theatres.
As the theatrical window unfolds, all eyes are on when and where the epic will land online. Once the OTT home is confirmed, it will open up new viewing possibilities for the film’s massive audience.
