Interval Chengiz Khan, Climax Simhadri

One has to appreciate Rajamouli’s stance to agree media allegations on him-self being awarded the title of copycat. All the way from films like ‘Eega’ till ‘Bahubali,’ there was a section of Telugu critics allotted the job to find out actual movies from where Jakkanna lifted many of the super hit scenes in his bumper hit films. 

When ‘Bahubali’ arrived on media canvas, take it right from first trailer to whole film there are many references our ace director used to pick the ‘inspiration’ and ‘influence’ from. Well, giving a Telugu or say Indian nativity played pivotal part because Rajamouli in fact has awesome capability to make us even forget the original.

‘I admit a fact that I copy many scenes from others. Unfortunately, many of our Telugu film researchers discover the original which I do not have any knowledge of. Sometimes, it could be a rare coincidence. For example, ‘Bahubali’ interval block where Kattappa keeps the leg of Shivudu on his head is taken from TV serial Chengiz Khan, which no one identified,’ Rajamouli’s frankness obliged.

At the same time, ‘Bahubali’ climax of Kattappa killing ‘Bahubali’ is checked as rip off from ‘Simhadri’ interval block, Bhumika attacks NTR with harpoon. That’s great of you, Jakkanna and Vijayendra Prasad.
