Did you remember? A full page news bulletin of 'Baahubali' was published in media baron's 'Eenadu' newspaper on the day of the release of the movie. That was the first time in the history of 'Eenadu', a full page news of a movie was published. Prior to the release of the movie, Ramoji Rao happened to visit the shoot of 'Baahubali' and was impressed in greater quarters watching the sets of the movie. He sent a letter of appreciation to Rajamouli. Having developed faith on Rajamouli's directorial skills, the media baron gave an extensive coverage to the movie. Speculations were also rife that Ramoji financed for 'Baahubali' but there was no official confirmation.
On the other hand, wonderful coverage of BJP's election campaigning was seen in 'Eenadu' newspaper during elections. Whichever the welfare and developmental program is launched by the party, the media takes it the people, seeking the peace and happiness among the poor and needy.
Meanwhile, Venkaiah Naidu, who is a great friend of the media baron, is representing as a MP of Rajyasabha from Karnataka. Co-incidentally, Rajamouli was also nominated from Karnataka for Padma Shri Award. Although there was no connection these big heads bagging Padma awards, common fans of Ramoji and Rajamouli are feeling proud of them getting the awards. Meanwhile, 'Baahubali 2' is also hoped to get good coverage in media so as to take Telugu cinema to next level.
