God, you want atonement for my sins. Take my life, but grant this child life. It must live for the mother who awaits it. It must live for the throne of Mahishmati. Mahishmati must live. [Music] Sacrifices [Music] Sacrifices Offerings [Music] This saga of offerings [Music] for years [Music] has been going on [Music] This flame of revenge [Music] Is death the mother of that great war which creation describes? [Music] Has the guardian come from the city of the sky, whose hands the earth kisses, capable of creating ten? Speak [Music] Hail Shiva, Shiva [Music] The war with Kalkey has ended. Both Bahubali and Bhalladeva showed equal courage and valor. But the queen mother, impressed by the way Bahubali protected his subjects, declared him the king. The people began to celebrate and eagerly awaited the coronation. Then came the demon destruction festival, which comes only once in 26 years. For the prosperity of the kingdom, it is a tradition that the queen's daughter-in-law herself goes for the fire procession. From the capital, 30 kos away, to the temple of Mahadev in the forest, barefoot, carrying the fire urn on her head, she must destroy the demon of famine, and her feet must not stop until the vow is fulfilled. [Music] [Music] Queen Sivagami Devi, Queen Sivagami Devi, Queen Sivagami Devi, Queen Sivagami Devi, Victory! [Praise] [Praise] Kattappa, mother, take everyone away from this danger. But how can I leave you? Do as you are told, Kattappa. As you command. Soldiers, take the people away from here. As you command, lord. [Music] Like this, like this, like this, like this, like the ocean, like the ocean, like the ocean, it did not stop. [Music] Ah! [Music] In every street, your light has been lit, live on, Bahubali. In every street, your light has been lit, live on, Bahubali. You are dearer to us than our lives. We will all sing and repeat your victory. May it be like a mountain, like a mountain. May it be like a mountain, like a mountain. May it be like a mountain, like a mountain. May it be like a mountain. Hallelujah! [Music] [Music] [Music] Yes, what compassion is this, what relationship is this? One life, and another lives. They are bound by the same thread. A storm, a storm has come. Has a flame, a flame come? It speaks, it trembles. This is such a Bahubali, he does not fear even death. With his head in his hands, if mother asks, he will give his life in an instant. May it be like a mountain, like a mountain. May it be like a mountain, like a mountain. May it be like a mountain, like a mountain. Like a mountain, like a mountain. Like a mountain, like a mountain. In every street, your light has been lit, live on, Bahubali. You are dearer than life. In every street, your light has been lit, live on, Bahubali. You are dearer than life. We will all sing and repeat your victory. [Praise] Queen Sivagami, Bhalla, did you ever think you should kill your mother? I thought the lap that should have been yours, your mother gave half of it to her as soon as she was born. That's when the thought of killing her first came. Division of jewelry, division of royal splendor, and division of rights. When she was giving him half of everything. That's when I thought I should take her life. And now that this throne is being given to him, I feel like killing him with these very hands. Why, why kill him? Your wine is speaking, father. Your mother's pet dog has arrived. What is it, dog? What have you come to bark about? Bahubali will be crowned on the coming Vijayadashami. It is the queen mother's order that this news be given to you first. [Music] That day too, the same thing happened. My throne was given to my younger brother, and today my son's throne is being given to his son. Now my son, my son's son, and his son, will we just keep serving? Tell me, dog, why was I not made the king? [Music] Because you are disabled, you don't have one hand, so what? This is an iron hand, isn't it? To take iron. The reason you are not king is not your disabled hand, lord. It is your disabled intellect. Command, lord. What is it, dog? The tongue of one who speaks ill of the royal family is cut off. Have you forgotten? Forgive me, lord. What is his intellect if he himself thinks of killing his wife? [Music] Did you hear? No, lord. The dog has smelled it. [Music] This is Princess Varuni of Pataliputra. They say there is no other such unparalleled beauty in all of India. There is no sparkle in her eyes. She is not worthy of Bahubali. Find someone else. Yes, Your Majesty. One thing to remember, Shastri ji, the bride to come will not only be Bahubali's wife but also the future queen of this empire. There should be no reason to point a finger at her. Mother, you called? Yes, Bahu, you should go on a pilgrimage. Yes, mother. The time for the coronation is approaching. It might not be a good time for pilgrimage. Then why is the festive idol of God taken out of the sanctum of the temple? Minister, so that the people's happiness and sorrow can be seen by God himself. [Music] Bahu, when the future king leaves the palace, only then does he know the joys and sorrows of the people. Yes, mother. Take Kattappa with you. As you command. Why this old baba, mother? He has been eating my head by telling me stories since childhood. Endure it once more. By the time you return, I will find a princess who will tell you beautiful stories. [Music] [Music] These are friends, not. That's why they stole it. Punish them. [Music] At this age, you are still so whimsical, uncle. Oh, you haven't seen anything yet. In those days, whether I wielded a sword or a stick, the girls in our palace didn't even blink. Now, let it be, uncle. [Praise] [Music] These Pindaris do not stop at just looting. They make a watery grave of whoever falls into their hands. These spirited elephants are for your sport and entertainment, specially brought for you. Vasant Mahal is being built for you on the banks of the Pranahita river. Do you like it, Bhalla? This bow that can hit a target from 50 yojanas away is for you. Mother, in exchange for giving the throne to my younger brother, I am being given this gift. Don't mourn not getting the throne. Your son is not so fallen. The queen mother Sivagami Devi's decision is paramount. Do not insult him by giving gifts. [Music] [Music] [Praise] How are you, grandfather? Thank you, daughter. Yes, oh, what a force the brave warrior has. [Music] Some robbers and soldiers disguised as them to catch them. Nothing for us. [Music] [Music] Ah! [Music] She wields her sword like lightning. Who could this be? [Music] Well, our brave warrior is nowhere to be seen. Hey, you people, go that way. Two people this way. The lord has arrived, and 10 people stay here. Yes, ah! [Praise] [Music] [Music] Oh! [Music] Oh! [Music] [Music] [Praise] [Music] [Praise] [Music] Bahu! [Music] Hathiya! [Music] What kind of behavior is this? Where is your attention, Bahu? You cut down that tree. Oh, if I had made a slight mistake, my head would have split. My life would have been lost. It feels like I can do anything for him, uncle. Anything, you mean you would kill me too? Would you kill me too? I have done so much for you since childhood, betraying your trust. You will have to do much more to unite us, uncle. Madhav. Yes, princess. Find their whereabouts. And bring back all the looted wealth. As you command. Capture everyone. We will not leave anyone. Tie them up properly. May God keep you happy. You people are like horses, hiding among women. Aren't you ashamed? Forgive me, princess. My nephew is mentally challenged. He doesn't do anything properly, so his family kicked him out. Did his own family? Yes, princess. You are kind. If you teach him something, we will be indebted to you for life. Okay. He looks good in build. He can learn to wield a sword. He can become a doorkeeper. We will teach him. Victory! Victory to you! [Music] Oh, look there. [Music] Listen, Gopika, Purnima is coming. We will have to prepare for Krishna Puja. Your Majesty, that is a festival for women. Do as you deem fit. [Music] Princess, there is no archer greater than you in this kingdom, yet you are not satisfied. No, minister, it is not possible to hit one target with two arrows. Minister, anything is possible for my sister. Try once more, Devasena. Hm, you wait. Instead of getting your young sister married, you are teaching her all this like boys. You spoke the truth, Your Majesty. Will you choose any of the suitors, or should I arrange your marriage with my brother, Prince Varma? Hey fool, let us show you our weapons. Come. This is a mace. You won't be able to lift it. This is a spear. You won't be able to wield it. This is a sword. Let's try wielding it. Come. Tell me, what can you do? I can do a lot, lord. Wet stick, hide and seek, monkey distribution. After that, you must also know how to play hide and seek. I've seen it from afar, lord. Girls don't let me play with them. How do you wield a sword? I will teach you. Watch and learn. So, hold it like this. Lift it like this. And strike like this. Oh, oh, oh, strike. See how you hold the sword. Khan ji, you won't be able to do it. Hey fool, let me show you again. Hold it like this. Lift it like this. Strike like this. Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. What a strike, lord? I did? Yes, you did. If not you, then who, lord? Hmm, I did. Hmm. Fast as lightning. Ah, ah, ah, ah. Well done. Strength of an elephant, roar of a lion, speed of a cheetah, sight of a vulture. You have seen the entire forest, lord. Lord, we like you. Thank you. Shall we teach you to wield a sword too? For the princess of a small kingdom, so much trouble. Tell me who you are, and they will wash your feet and perform your kanya-daan. Why all this drama? A 60-year-old man needs to understand the language of love. How do I explain it to him? Look, don't talk nonsense. Bahu, explain to me what love is. Then you can say if I don't understand. [Music] Look at this pair of chakor birds in this cool moonlit night. Look at this full moon, how its rays are dripping drop by drop from the soft bodies of the flowers. And how these two are immersed in each other, savoring these rays. What do you think looking at these two, uncle? I have spent so many years on this earth. For what? Never, anywhere, have I eaten them even once. Let's catch both of them, dip them well in salt and pepper, and fry them lovingly on a slow flame. Ah, heaven! What happened to you? You were fine in the morning. Lord, Princess Devasena is arriving. Come, Devasena. You have come so late at night, there must be a special reason. Kumar, hmm. I couldn't see your feat this morning. Show me now. We, hmm, where will we find such a big log now? Over there, over there. Someone hid it behind a pillar. You brought the log, but where did you put the sword? [Music] Dak! [Music] Strike, Kumar! [Music] Stop, lord, stop. What you heroes do in the morning, repeating it in the evening will be a disaster. Lord, you know this, don't you? You just forgot. Remind us in time. We have to go hunting in the morning. Why? Wild boars are destroying the fields. I hate boars. Wild boars. Even them. Farmers complain that they are ruining the fields. Bring him too. The thing is, he runs away even at the sight of a mouse. Why him for hunting? What will he learn sitting in the kitchen? He will only know what he is capable of if he comes along. Bring him. [Praise] It will happen. [Music] Oh, Susu! [Music] [Music] Why are you falling down? Oh, you killed it. The blue-colored arrow. It's Kumar Varma's blue-colored arrow. Kumar Varma has killed the boar. Oh, it's here! [Music] Kumar Varma again! [Music] Or! [Music] How big is the boar? It's like a horse. [Music] Oh wow, great shot. Ah, ah, ah, Varma, arrow, Ram, arrow. Victory to Kumar Varma! [Praise] Victory to Kumar Varma! Victory to Kumar Varma! Amazing! Kumar Varma's courage is extraordinary. He alone killed all the wild boars. Victory to the boar warrior Kumar Varma! Boar warrior Kumar! Stop the praise, lord. Devasena, keep these arrows in your museum. They will inspire future generations. I suspected you the moment I saw you. Your theatrics and his flattery. I, I didn't think so. What was his name? Shivoo. Shivoo. [Music] Caught. We! [Music] These are hands that have wielded swords in battle. I will recognize a warrior's hand. Uncle, what are you saying? What are you saying? This is a naive child. You handed him a spear. Why are you doing this? [Music] That, that bull. On one side is the bull, on the other side is the bull-brained child. He will die. [Music] Oh, oh, they killed my nephew. His milk teeth haven't even fallen out yet. Oh, gross injustice has occurred. The bone is broken. Ruin! Destruction! Now, which girl will marry him? Who will give him a place in her heart? Oh, princess with such a vast heart. Bring the chariot. What should I do? Oh, innocent, innocent. The goddess who promised help has broken my hands. Oh, just sit up once. Oh, fool, didn't you hear what the doctor said? Get up, get up. [Music] Keep it properly. Give him this medicine to drink. Swami, the better he sleeps, the faster he will recover. Oh, oh, oh, how can someone sleep with a broken hand? Innocent, innocent. Mama, what did you say? A lullaby, a lullaby. Listen now. Who will sing it now? Who will sing? Listen. Will you sing a lullaby? You don't know how? Will you sing? I don't know how. I don't know how. What should I do now? Princess, will you sing? Oh, oh, my nephew's hand is broken. In this sorrow, I am asking myself everything, I don't even know myself. Innocent, innocent. Now what will I do? I will sing myself. Who is the mother who sings the lullaby? Who is the father who shows affection? He is innocent, unaware of the world. Who will show him affection? Innocent, innocent. Who is the mother who sings the lullaby? Who is the father who shows affection? He is innocent, unaware of the world. Who will show him affection? [Music] Princess, you are still in these clothes. It is time for Krishna Puja. Let's go. [Music] [Laughter] [Music] My flute player! [Praise] Nandlala Kanhaiya, my flute player! Nandlala Kanhaiya, my flute player! Brother, don't tease me like this, dark one. Don't play games with me. I will tell Yashoda, Kanha, go to sleep. Oh Kanha, go to sleep. Don't peek at me like this. Kanha, go to sleep. Oh Kanha, go to sleep. Don't dance with your eyes. Kanha, go to sleep. Kanha, go to sleep. Oh Kanha, go to sleep. [Music] Sa, Dha, Re, Sa, Ni, Ga, Pa, Ma, Ga, Re, Pa, Ga, Re, Sa, Pa, Sa, Ni, Dha, Pa, Re, Pa, Dha, Pa, Ma, Re, Ga, Dha, Re, Dha, Pa, Re, Sa, Ni, Re, Sa, Re, Ga, Re, Sa, Ni, Dha, Re, Ga, Re, Sa, Sa, Re, Ga, Re, Sa, Ni, When your flute played, I walked, I walked, my love. I will sing your songs. Why did I become yours? Your love has intoxicated me. [Music] [Music] What happened? Why were you beaten? How did you escape the bull? This is all your fault. [Music] Kanha, go to sleep. Oh Kanha, go to sleep. Kanha, go to sleep. Oh Kanha, go to sleep. Kanha, go to sleep. Oh Kanha, go to sleep. Madana, Manasudana, Manohar, Manor, Madhusudana, Manohar, Manamohana! [Music] Kanha, my child, go to sleep. Bahubali and Kattappa, while on their pilgrimage, have reached the kingdom of Kuntala. Bahubali is pretending to be mentally challenged. Lord, why the pretense? He is already mentally challenged. But why is he pretending? It seems the prince has fallen in love with Princess Devasena of that kingdom. This is her picture, lord. [Music] The kingdom is his, and the beauty is also his. Devasena should be mine alone, father. How is this possible? Mother will make it possible if she gives her word. Your younger brother's beloved is to be yours. Why would your mother give such a word? Because she doesn't know that my younger brother loves her. Therefore, I will make the first move. So, Bhalla, you didn't come for breakfast this morning, nor for the meeting with the ministers. What happened, Bhalla? Nothing, mother. I didn't feel like coming. I know what happened. Queen mother, it's a Vastu dosha. A Vastu dosha. Yes, queen mother. A new planet has entered in the north direction. Shall I show you? What are you saying? Bhalla, I am telling you, show me. [Music] Such beauty that even beauty would be ashamed. Who is she? She is the princess of Kuntala. Her name is Devasena. Since the prince saw this picture from a painter, the planetary positions in the north have reversed. Do you like the princess, Bhalla? Yes, mother. I want her. What is this, prince? You are asking as if she is a doll. How will this happen? Why not? He has renounced the throne of the country like a blade of grass. My son has a great heart. If I cannot fulfill his small wish, what kind of mother am I? Bhalla, Devasena is yours. I give my word. Minister, it takes a year to wear the same jewelry twice. Send such priceless ornaments as gifts to Devasena. Yes, Commander. Send clothes woven with golden threads to the royal family of Kuntala. As you command. Bhallaladeva, Sword Minister, get Devasena married with this sword and complete the Kshatriya wedding. Prepare a wonderful and unique welcome for Sivagami's daughter-in-law. From the queen mother Sivagami Devi of Mahishmati to the king of Kuntala, Jayasena, with blessings. My son, who is like Kamadeva in form, like the gods in virtue, and like heroes in valor, for him, I have chosen your sister Devasena as his life partner. Send your sister to our kingdom as our daughter-in-law. By the time you return, I will find a princess who will tell you beautiful stories. You have not chosen Bahubali's favorite girl as his life partner. Ah, with love, Queen Mother Sivagami Devi. Emperors of great empires send prayer messages to connect with us. But our Sivagami Devi's grace has fallen upon this small kingdom of yours. The princess is very fortunate. In exchange for sending your sister with us, see all these gifts. You have never seen such valuable gifts in your life. Are you and your queen mother like this, or is everyone in your kingdom like this? You people would wag your tails for such gifts. But for me, it is like dust under my feet. Devasena, minister. If even a fraction of this arrogance were in your prince, I would be captivated by his valor. What will I do with such useless people? Even the dogs of our kingdom would not marry them. Devasena, wow, princess. Maharaj, you explain to him. This is his decision. Minister, send your reply. Devasena, Viran ji. Princess Devasena of Kuntala writes with respect to Queen Mother Sivagami Devi of Mahishmati. How is your son? What qualities does he possess? Without telling me, by just sending gifts, you expect me to consider him great. But I understand he is a hero who hides behind a woman. Along with the gifts you sent, I am also sending my sword. Wear these jewels for your son. Tell him to marry my sword and come to me as a house husband. I will take care of him like flowers. With humility, Devasena. Minister, Queen Mother. Tell our commander to immediately prepare for an invasion of Kuntala. Why use Brahmastra to kill a sparrow, Sivagami? It is heard that Bahubali is nearby. Send a message with the eagle, he will alone destroy the entire kingdom and bring Devasena. We should be playing wedding shehnai, and you have sent the trumpets of your arrogant war. Devasena is to be captured. This is the queen mother's command. Convey this to Bahubali immediately. Yes, Queen Mother. [Music] Such a big proposal was rejected with so much anger. This means she loves me very much. Understood? Lord, I heard something like this.
has come, and even among the maids, there are whispers that the princess is singing love songs for that simpleton. That simpleton? Yes, Lord, I will have him crushed by an elephant. Sir, one good and one bad news, which should I tell first? Should I tell both? Which news is good? I will tell. The Queen Mother has sent betel leaves as a good omen for Devsena's and your marriage. My mother knows well what I want. But the princess sent a reply with great arrogance that she does not accept this relationship. This is also good news. How? Because she loves me. Not him, who is me. [Music]
Uncle, weapons! [Music] Hey simpleton, earlier you used to walk in fear. Today you are walking with your chest puffed out. Where are you going? To the princess. Such audacity! You are going to meet Devsena in the middle of the night. Why? Your kingdom is in great danger, Kumar Varma. Just as I am saying. You are calling me by name. I don't have time to explain right now. Get out of the way. You are touching me. [Music] [Applause] [Applause]
What are you looking at, Kumar Varma? These are Pindaris. Alert everyone. Ah! [Music] [Music] [Music] Look, Shiva, someone is attacking us. Kumar Varma, time gives every coward an opportunity to become a brave warrior. That moment is now. He who gives life is God. The one who saves life is a physician, and the one who protects life is a Kshatriya. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Yes, yes! [Applause] Hail! [Music] [Music] [Music]
Princess, Nad Manibandham Bahirmukham. [Music] Teja. [Music] Ah! [Music] Wait, who are you? There is no time to tell now, Princess. Come. [Music] But Lord, we are just ordinary cowherds. What war will we fight? If the resolve is firm, even a straw can turn into a sword. The number of soldiers in your kingdom is less. That is why your help is needed. Are you ready? We are ready, Lord. [Music] Thank you, brother. [Music] [Music]
Hail Saad! Show your strength! Go! Hail Bhavani! Hail Bhavani! Go up! Hit below the pillars! Sadhaka! [Music] [Music] [Music] I couldn't even know who you are. I don't know what all I said. I even kicked you. Only when you kicked did I realize your strength. This is not blood, friend. It is the mark of victory that says you are a hero, not a coward. We had no inkling of this calamity. You saved us like a god. Who are you? Where have you come from? Who are we? Let that be, Maharaj. Only you can help us. That is why we have come here. How can we help such a great warrior? Sir, he has been enchanted by a beauty from your kingdom. What? Who is that fortunate one? Sir, she is your princess. What could be happier than this? [Music]
What is that message, warrior? What is it? It is Queen Mother Sivagami's order to make you a prisoner. [Music] Deception! After saving us from the enemy, you became a god to us. And the very next moment, you came to make us prisoners. Who are you? Even sweet words spoken in anger sound bitter, Princess. Answer what is asked. Who are you? As soon as your cruelty calms down, I will tell you all. The future emperor of Mahishmati, the beloved son of Queen Mother Sivagami Devi, the destroyer of the Kalakeyas, the bravest of the brave, Amarendra Baahubali, whom the world feared. [Music]
Relatives embrace each other. They do not bow before them, Maharaj. The Queen Mother had sent a marriage proposal for this great warrior. Yes, Maharaj. Baahubali loves the princess. The Queen Mother did not know this. When you refused, she ordered you to be brought as a prisoner. My mother can never make a mistake, Devsena. Whatever she does, there is a special reason behind it. This is just a misunderstanding. Not revenge. Come with me as a prisoner. You are the great warrior who won my heart. If you take me as a maid, I will happily walk with you until death. But it is impossible to come as a prisoner, losing my self-respect. From this moment until death separates us, I am yours, Devsena. I vow, taking the dharma my mother taught me as a witness, that I will not let anything harm your honor and dignity under any circumstances. Give me your hand. [Music]
We are entrusting the light of our kingdom to you, Yuvaraj. Rest assured. Now this is my responsibility. [Music] Nothing happened to you, did it, Princess? Your attention is elsewhere. [Music] Om. [Music] [Laughter] [Music] No, no. [Music] [Music]
Oh, oh, king, bravest of the brave, come. Oh, oh, king, bravest of the brave, do not be far from my eyes. I am yours, then what kind of goddess? Take me where your abode is. Join this hand with mine. We both have to flow together. Only yours is helplessness. [Music] La. [Music] Na. [Music] [Music]
You are my mother, I live and die here, I will stay here my whole life. I too will not live, I will not live forgetting you. Heart met heart, wave after wave, listen to what was said. I have heard the sky is singing a song. May your love be like a dream. [Music] May this dream never break, friend. Devsena is your captive. No, no, no. [Music]
Oh, oh, king, bravest of the brave, come. Oh, oh, king, bravest of the brave, do not be far from my eyes. I am yours, then what kind of goddess? Take me where your abode is. [Music] Join this hand with mine. We both have to flow together. Only yours is Devsena. No. [Music]
Rest assured, Princess. The Queen Mother will take care of you not like a daughter-in-law, but like a daughter. Mahishmati Radhe Radha. [Music] [Music] Tera Re. [Music] Re Re Tare. [Music]
Beware! I insulted you by mocking your order. I hurt your feelings by sending an arrogant reply. You can forgive my arrogance, Queen Mother. Such arrogance on Sivagami's daughter-in-law seems attractive. Stand near your future husband, Devsena. Whether my decision is right or not, Mahishmati will see for itself. [Music]
Devsena, what are you doing? I am doing exactly what you said. The one I chose as your husband is Bhallaladeva. What is the Queen Mother saying? The one I desired from my heart, and the one you chose for me, is Baahubali. What is all this happening? [Music]
Forgive me, Queen Mother. This mistake was mine. When you said "son" in that message, I mistakenly understood it as Baahubali. I am the cause of this confusion. The princess is not at fault in this. Kattappa. How the mistake happened is not important. Now, what remains to be seen is what will happen next. King. [Music]
Baahu, I have already promised Bhallaladeva to Devsena. Stop! Who are you to decide my marriage without my consent? A Kshatriya maiden has the right to choose her groom. You don't even know that much. You don't even have that much sense. How dare you speak in a raised voice to Sivagami? Commander! Arrest this arrogant one and make her kneel. Order, Queen Mother! If anyone even touches Devsena, consider it touching Baahubali's sword. Mother, I had vowed to protect Devsena's honor and dignity. Yuvaraj, you are going against the Queen Mother. You yourself said that there can be a mistake in the decision of Lord Shiva, but not in the decision of Sivagami Devi. For a given promise, for truth and justice, for the establishment of dharma, if one has to go against anyone, even if it is God himself, then do not be afraid. This is dharma. This is Kshatriya dharma. It is wrong to promise your son without knowing a girl's heart. You made a mistake, Mother. [Music]
Sivagami made a mistake. You swallowed your mother as soon as you were born. Yet, raising you close to my heart, that was a mistake. Raising you like a child born from my own womb, that was a mistake. Declaring you Yuvaraj, is that a mistake, or crowning you? What is the mistake? You see, Sivagami, he called your sacrifice a mistake. So you will not break your promise? Meaning, it is right for your mother to break her promise? Your mother's promise has no value, no dignity? Let it be. In times of destruction, wisdom is reversed. Everything is visible. Amarendra Baahubali, you have two paths before you. Do you want the royal throne of the Mahishmati empire, built on a golden history, or this deceitful Devsena? Should I break my promise for the throne? That would be an insult to your upbringing, Mother. I will not break my promise. Alright. On the upcoming Vijayadashami, at the same auspicious moment, Bhallaladeva's coronation will be performed, and that festival will be completed under the supervision of Baahubali, appointed to the post of army chief. Queen Mother, think once. This is my promise. My word is my command.
From Udayagiri mountain in the east to Manava Samudra Island in the west, from Kuntala and Samanta kingdoms in the north to Kartari Surani Kalakeya Maharanaya in the south, these are the boundaries of Mahishmati, for whose future emperor, Shri Bhallaladeva, may the auspicious coronation begin. [Music] May the Mahishmati empire be unconquerable, O Aryachandradhara, may it be glorified, Mahishmati, facing the underworld, greetings to the Maharaj. [Music]
Dum. [Music] The arrival of the Chakravarti, the elephant herds, humbly bowing. [Music] The sword-wielding ranks, the spear-wielding ranks, the glorious surrender of weapons. [Music] Reigning continuously, the ancient, well-trained, special army group, greetings at the feet of the Maharaj. [Music] Sit down. [Music] Asuri Chandra Taram. [Music]
Bijjaladeva, the offspring of Sivagami, who is known by the name Bhallaladeva. I, the King of Kings of the undivided Mahishmati Empire, will lawfully discharge the great responsibility for the welfare of this kingdom. Taking that Supreme Being as my witness, I take this oath. Hail to Chakravarti Bhallaladeva! Hail! Hail to Chakravarti Bhallaladeva! Hail! Hail to Chakravarti Bhallaladeva! Hail! Hail to Surya Chandra Taram! Yes! [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music]
Amarendra Baahubali, meaning me, is needed. [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Amarendra Baahubali, meaning I, the protector of the countless subjects of Mahishmati and their wealth, honor, and lives, and the commander of Maharaj Bhallaladeva's entire army, will continuously discharge my duties, and if I have to sacrifice my life, I will not hesitate. Taking Queen Mother Sivagami Devi as my witness, I take this oath. [Applause] Hail Baahubali! Hail Baahubali! Hail Baahubali! Hail Baahubali! Hail! Hail! Hail! Hail! Hail! Hail, Mah... [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
Mahishmati, ever since I gained consciousness, I have yearned only for you. In every dream, I saw you adorned on my head. After so many years, after so many conspiracies, you came into my hands. Now why are you running away from me? I placed you on my head and eyes, and why did you reject me and accept Baahubali? [Music]
Bhalla, now you are the Maharaj. Have Baahubali killed. Who is there to stop you? Have him killed. He can give an order to kill someone. But the authority to implement it still lies with the Queen Mother. This custom must be changed. To change Sivagami... The sun never rises from the west, Bhalla. Whether it rises from the west or not, I will make it set in the east. You fed milk to a snake, Sivagami, which is now spreading its hood. One day or another, it will surely bite. You have never respected anything I said until today. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
Because of me, a rift has now come between the two of them. I am very sad about this. Mother's anger will last only until we give her a grandson. In Mother's lap is the coming little one, that Nandlala. In Mother's lap is the coming little one, that Nandlala. In Mother's lap is the coming little one, that Nandlala. Offer a chunar to Mother Yashoda. Come, Nand Baba, Mangal. Mother hasn't come, so Mother will surely come. I know, Kattappa. Yes, tell me. You didn't bring any gift for me? I am a slave who doesn't even have the right to bless you. What can I possibly give you? I will ask for what you can give. Will you give it? Please ask. We have a custom here that as soon as a child is born, it is placed in the grandfather's hands before the mother's, for a long life. My father is not here, and neither is his. You will take my child in your lap, won't you, Kattappa? It is a big deal to keep this slave with you. You have given me the place of a father. I will not pick him up in my lap. I will place him on my head. Queen Mother Sivagami Devi is arriving. Mother. [Music]
The one growing in your womb is the heir of Mahishmati. Be aware, you have lost the right to call him mother. She has only come here to fulfill the duty of the Queen Mother. Did I not get late in coming? Only a lion will be born from a lioness's womb, for the little lion. Kumar himself hunted this lion. Do you know this is true, Kumar? When there is Baahubali's weapon in hand and Baahubali's courage filled in the chest, then what, even a child will strike down a lion. Shri Shri Bhallaladeva Maharaj is arriving. Beware. I am going to give you such a gift that you cannot even imagine. Devsena, what is it, Maharaj? Any pregnant woman desires her husband's company more than gold and silver. Baahu, you are so engrossed in the care of the kingdom that you cannot give time to Devsena. Therefore, freeing you from your duties, I entrust this responsibility to Setupati. [Music]
As you command, Maharaj. [Music] All this drama is happening before your eyes, and you are silently watching like a stone, Queen Mother. [Music]
Devsena, it seems you do not know our tradition. The right to decide who gets which position? It belongs only to the Maharaj. These are all excuses. Queen Mother, the silence of a good person is more harmful to the kingdom than the tyranny of a wicked one. Don't you know this? A great warrior like Baahubali is being removed from his post, and his authority is being given to a dog. Even after seeing all this, you are silent. Everyone who has come here has brought a gift for me. You have given nothing. Ask for anything, and you will give it. You must sit on the throne of Mahishmati. This is my wish. This is not just my wish, but the wish of all the subjects. And they say fulfilling the wishes of the subjects is Kshatriya dharma. Fulfill your dharma. [Music]
Greetings, greetings. It is time for the Maharaj to arrive. No matter who it is, they will have to come from the side. You come forward. No problem, you go. Come, come, quickly, quickly come. Many people are still left behind. Everyone will have to come forward. [Music] Come. After this, you. [Music]
Arrest him! Arrest him! Baahubali's wife, Devsena, is accused of cutting off the fingers of army commander Setupati. By the order of Queen Mother Sivagami Devi, this hearing is commencing before Shri Shri Bhallaladeva Maharaj. Devsena, do you have anything to say about your crime? I was handcuffed without any hearing? And it has already been decided that I am a criminal. Where is this justice? You are a criminal until proven innocent. This is Mahishmati's penal code. Even tribals consider those methods disgusting, and you call them a penal code? Then set such a penal code on fire! Throw your jurisprudence into the Ganga! Crucify your rule! A kingdom whose intellect is corrupt, its great name like Mahishmati, ugh! Devsena, if you utter one more derogatory word about this great empire. A great empire is not built with grand statues and high thrones, Queen Mother. It is built with a vast heart. It seems no one here possesses that. Shame! You saw, Maharaj, she is speaking with such impudence in front of you. So imagine how many trivial things she must have said about you in front of me. Just think, Maharaj. Baahubali! Baahubali has arrived! Baahubali, like this. [Music]
Saad, like the ocean, like Rudra. What actually happened, tell me, Setupati? The Shiva temple was full of devotees, Maharaj. Devsena also came there for darshan. It was then time for your arrival. So I told her to come through another gate instead of the main gate. Baahu, what kind of behavior is this? You are threatening the victim. The truth will not come out by pleading, Maharaj. You are crossing your limits, Baahubali. By making a pregnant woman stand with shackles, this assembly has already crossed its limits, Mother. Whether pregnant or old, you or I, the law of justice is one for all. Do you even know what happened? What happened, Devsena? In the Shiva temple, he called all the women to one side. Under the pretext of sending them inside, he was touching everyone. He was going to do the same with me. So I cut off his fingers. You did wrong, Devsena. You don't cut off the fingers of someone who lays hands on a woman. You cut off his throat. The empire is unconquerable, praised by the sun, moon, and stars. Baahubali, this audacity! He lied in my assembly, that's why Setupati's words faltered. She is innocent, that's why Devsena fearlessly told the whole truth. Setupati was proven guilty. His head was cut off.
Baahubali, even if we assume Setupati is a criminal, who should decide this? Who should have the right to punish? You or the Maharaj? Or do you consider yourself the Maharaj? On the day of the baby shower, your wife wanted you to become the Maharaj. You committed this audacity to fulfill her wish. Despite being warned, your wife kept using derogatory words for our constitution. She kept cursing our great jurisprudence. She insulted us with words, and you with a sword. What both of you did is treason. Chief Minister, let the punishment for this great crime be announced. If such a crime is committed by a royal family member, they should be banished from the royal palace forever. Queen Mother, let this be implemented. Both of you, right now, in this very state, leave this royal courtyard.
On one side is your law. On the other side is the dharma you taught. In the conflict between these two, my sword is leaning towards dharma. Mother, whether my position is taken away or I am ostracized, I will always be ready to serve Mahishmati, to protect it. Does the sun ever separate from the sky? Give the command, Mother. Does a lamp ever burn without a wick? Does the sun ever separate from the sky? Does a lamp ever burn without a wick? What an inauspicious event this is, every eye is filled with tears. How will we live if you leave us? You are the shore, you are the support, you are the whole world, you are our sun, you are our star. Hail, hail! Lord, be with us! Why are you crying, people? God is leaving his temple and coming to live with us. Prepare for the festival. Our... [Music] [Music] Darshan. [Music] [Music] [Music] Hey. [Music] Ah. [Applause] [Music] [Music]
Wherever your feet fall, that earth becomes the sky. Who knows what kind of illusion this is of yours. If this weak one lives, wherever he stays, he will remain a Maharaj. What fear does he have, over whom your shadow falls? There is happiness in every particle, every branch sways. How can you sleep? He is instigating all the subjects, telling them to come to him if they have any trouble. You don't need the Maharaj. He is playing some trick. I am scared. [Music]
You are that stream of nectar from the clouds that drizzles on us thirsty ones. Hail, hail! Lord, be with us! Hail, hail! Lord, be with us! [Music]
Bhalla, what are you doing here alone at this time? Why has he come here? Forgive me, Lord. Today he escaped. By tomorrow, his head should be in my hands, otherwise. Your head will be in your hands. Go, Bhalla. Lord, whose head, and whose? Baahubali's? Have you gone mad? Will you stoop so low as to have him murdered? I will also kill his wife and the child in her womb if you interfere. I will forget that you are my father. I heard. I know my son well. If he decides something in his mind, he will do it. This should be told to Baahubali immediately. Will he believe it? Baahubali does not know deceit. He will not believe that his brother is so vile. Now there is only one way. What is that? It is in your hands. Kumar, in my hands, Bhallaladeva must be killed. Do not refuse, Kumar Varma. For Baahubali, for Devsena, for the child in her womb, kill my son Bhallaladeva. [Music]
Alright. [Applause] Kumar Varma, time gives every coward an opportunity to become a brave warrior. That moment is now. It is not understandable, Kumar Varma, a yagna is taking place. A great yagna to have Baahubali's death written by Sivagami's hands. You are just a small offering. Look, Sivagami, Baahubali sent his dear friend and trusted companion, Kumar Varma, here at midnight to assassinate the Maharaj, giving him his dagger and revealing all the secret passages of the royal palace. This Kumar Varma and his people... our bodyguards...
He was killed. The king was also left bleeding. After all this, what is there to think? Bahubali will know. What are you thinking now, Sivagami? Fulfill your duty as the queen mother. Do not be helpless with your maternal affection. [Music] Bhallaldev is not just your son, but also the king of this country. And whoever wants to kill the king must be sentenced to death. [Music] If Bahubali is sentenced to death, the subjects will revolt. The cabinet will be divided. Civil war is not appropriate for the kingdom. So, will you let such a heinous criminal go like this? Bahubali's death is certain. [Music] But his blood should not be on the king's hands. He should not be written in history as the killer of his younger brother. So, what should be done? Kattappa, your ancestors took an oath that they would remain servants of the Mahishmati throne and would obey every command of the king without question. Are you firm on that oath? Undoubtedly, your command, my lord. Kill Bahubali. What are you saying? But why? Do as you are told. Queen mother. Mother, is this happening with your consent? I fall at your feet. Tell the king to take back his words. Let the world turn upside down. Bahubali cannot make a mistake. He grew up in your lap. You breastfed him. Your values run in his veins, mother. He has to be killed. I cannot do this. I will not be able to do this. To break this oath of yours. You can cut off my head. Will you kill him, or do you want me to kill him? No mother, this sin cannot happen by your hands. I will kill him. I will kill him. Bhalla, this dog can be trusted. The lord is very worried. Everything will be fine. Kattappa is being punished for treason. Did you see that? Do you even know what you are saying? Uncle is in danger, Devasena. [Music] I have to go. [Music] You promised to take our child in your lap. Bring them back safely. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] Very tall, who is that uncle? Bahu Ba [Applause] [Music] [Music] Father, leave me. Listen to what I am saying. The life of this slave is not worth more than you. Leave me here and go. Go away, father. Look, I am telling you, leave me here. Understand my point. Let me die, father. Do you think I want to save you? You promised my wife that you would feed my son in your lap. My wife made me promise that I would bring you back safely. Oh uncle, be quiet for a while and let me do my work. Oh God, how do I explain this to you? I fall at your feet. Go away from here. Leave me. [Music] Are you afraid for Bahubali? As long as you are with me, the one who will kill me has not been born yet. Uncle, mother. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Ah [Music] Om, father [Music] [Music] [Music] Mother, mother, Rajesh, the king had ordered to kill you. [Music] Forgive me. [Music] Take care of mother. [Music] [Music] Victory to Mahishmati. [Music] [Music] I suspected you for nothing, Kattappa. You are my dog. [Music] Bahubali, Amarendra Bahubali, Amarendra Bahubali, meaning I, the countless subjects of Mahishmati and their wealth, and with Queen Mother Sivagami Devi as witness, I take this oath. Queen Mother, foolish mother, you are going to kill me. By making me believe this, I got your death warrant written by his hands. And you were taking his oath. I don't know what happened to Bahubali. [Music] We will never be free from this sin in this life, mother. Kattappa, you did wrong, Sivagami. You made a big mistake. Your anger towards Bahubali was so intense that you could not see the conspiracy hatched by your own son. Queen Mother, foolish mother, you are going to kill me. By making me believe this, I got your death warrant written by his hands. Even in his last moments, he was not thinking about his wife and his unborn child. Do you know what he said? [Music] Take care of mother. Oh my light, I am your mother. Let me hide you in my arms. Bahubali, Kattappa, uncle, when your protector is with you, when brother Bhalla, in mother's arms, forget the world and weave sweet dreams, Bahubali. [Music] [Music] The hands that gave you the place of a father and blessed your child have today snatched your husband from you. Crush these tiny giggles, Sivagami, otherwise these giggles will raise questions tomorrow, demand answers, and roar as rebellion. With the death of this child, Mahishmati will be free from enemies. Crush them. [Music] [Music] Understanding Bahubali's greatness, you have become higher than the sky. And I, who breastfed my son, have killed him and am now at your feet. What else can I do but go to him and wash his feet with my tears? What can I do? Mother, the proof of Bahubali's death has not been found, so the subjects are making noise like sheep. They will believe only when they hear from you. Go, make this announcement. I will take care of this child. [Music] Amarendra Bahubali is no more. Now you are the king. [Music] Mahendra Bahubali, victory, victory, victory, victory. [Music] Kattappa, call a meeting of the council of ministers this very moment. The guilty will be hanged in the middle of the city in front of the subjects. As you command, mother. The very person you loved more than your life, Bahubali, you considered him a traitor and had him killed. Then I am so lowly. Why will you forgive me? Will I not take care of myself? Soldiers, kill Sivagami and that child. Come now. Devasena, Devasena, wake up, daughter. My, my, you will save my son, then I will consider my husband alive. Mahendra, you have to return. I will be waiting for you. Mahishmati will be waiting for you. You will come, won't you? The lord could not catch them. After gaining control of the entire kingdom, there was no stopping Bhallaldev's atrocities. In his anger towards Devasena, he destroyed the entire Kuntala kingdom. In this whole world, if anyone is left for your love or your hatred, it is only me. We all assumed you were dead, son. But your grandmother gave her life to make you immortal. [Music] [Music] Your mother and motherland have been waiting for 25 years. Only for you. [Music] [Music] [Applause] Announce in the city, grandfather. Tell children, adults, old people, everyone, I have called them. Bring swords, hammers, axes, saws, sickles, spears, pickaxes, whatever you find, make it a weapon. Say that to free this kingdom from the curse, the grandson of Queen Mother Sivagami Devi, the descendant of Amarendra Bahubali, Mahendra Bahubali, has now returned. [Applause] [Music] There are 30,000 soldiers deployed there, my lord. We don't even have good weapons. Make your hands weapons. Turn your breaths into storms. Our blood is the great army. Victory to Mahishmati. [Applause] Victory, victory. This golden statue, the throne of Mahishmati, this crown. Authority over this kingdom. Until now, I thought these gave me happiness. No, these iron chains, these chains that gave Devasena hellish torture. Now Devasena is not in their grip, so the veins in my head are bursting. Father, I want Devasena. [Music] The subjects have joined hands with Kattappa, he has rebelled, my lord. Kattappa, loyal like a dog, why is Kattappa rebelling? [Music] Victory to the guru, victory, victory to the guru, victory, victory, victory, victory, victory, victory, victory, victory, victory. What happened? [Music] Those who supported him, their heads should be cut off, Bhadra, I will perform your cremation with your head. The cries of 10,000 families will echo as a funeral song, and this is how you will be bid a final farewell. Praveera, thank you. [Music] [Music] All are here. [Music] [Applause] [Music] He was with you for only 9 months, and that too in your womb, and you were with me for 25 years. Then why can you leave me as soon as he arrives, Devasena? [Applause] [Music] [Music] Yes. [Music] [Music] Jan [Music] Teja [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Stop, Mahendra. How can I bear that my mother is in his captivity? Even if I die, let me go. For so many years, your mother has waited for your death. You are the son of Amarendra, who filled the darkness with light. Think like your father. Think like Bahubali. [Music] [Music] [Applause] Yes. [Music] Ho [Music] [Music] Re [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] Where are the officers who lowered that bridge? Find them. What are you doing, Kattappa? For how many generations have your grandfather and great-grandfather been loyal servants of the king? How much great fame did they earn? By destroying such fame and glory. You want to break your oath. No, Kattappa, correct your mistake. Just as Bahubali was killed, kill his son too. Go, Kattappa, kill him. [Music] 25 years ago, the queen mother declared Mahendra Bahubali our king. Assuming him dead, I have been guarding the lie for so many years. Today our truth has returned. Kattappa never breaks his oath, my lord. More than half of Bhalla's army will be inside the palace. Mahendra, we need to find a way to bring our army inside. We need a hammer, grandfather. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Prepare the fire, Avantika. Bring the punishment, grandfather. [Music] Step forward, mother. Before you complete the third round of God, I will keep him ready on this pyre to burn him alive. Go, Devasena. By the time you return, I will place your son's head in your hands. [Music] Radhe, victory. [Music] Ram. [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] Ya Agni Prasthana, whoever completes this cannot be defeated, my lord. Get this broken. Devasena's steps should stop. [Music] Set that bridge on fire before completing the temple rounds. Kill, kill, brother. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] Victory, victory. Victory, victory. You will break my head. You will break my head. Om. [Music] [Applause] I thought you were dead, and you returned. I cannot express. How happy I am. I regret that I could not kill him with my own hands. You have returned in the same form. You are fulfilling this unfulfilled wish of mine. And you have given me the opportunity to tear open your chest with my hands. How can I thank you? Mahendra Bahubali. [Applause] [Music] [Music] Dhara Dhirendra Nandini Vilas Bandhu Bandhuganta Santati Pramod Manase Kripa Kataksha Dhoni Niruddha Dudhara Vachita Digambare Mano Vinod Mein. [Music] [Music] Ya [Applause] Ya, like this, like this, like this, Sampaa. [Music] [Music] Mahendra. [Music] So listen, come with me. Both of us will die together. Life is still in our breath, yet we are in the sky. [Music] When he screams in fear of death, the walls of Mahishmati palace will tremble. Who is that? Saho, Saho Re. [Music] With Queen Mother Sivagami Devi as witness, this is my first command. Every citizen in this kingdom who works with policy, justice, and dedication will live with their head held high. If anyone commits injustice against such a person, their head will be cut off and fall into the abyss. This is my word. My word is my rule. [Music] Om. [Music] Of life. [Music] Oh life too. When humans are with resolutions, even the stars bow. Earth and sky. When humans make faith their weapon, destiny is defeated. Every moment is defeated. [Music] Hmm. [Music] Grandfather, so after Mahendra Bahubali, will his son become the king of Mahishmati? What is going on in Shiva's mind, we don't know. [Music] [Music] Yes. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Ho. [Music] Ra. [Music] Ro. [Applause] [Music] Ji Ro. [Music] Ro. [Music]
