Three weeks ahead of the worldwide release of ‘Baahubali 2’, the makers have planned to re-release the first part on 7th April to bring audiences back into the narrative.
The Hindi version of Baahubali first part is being released tomorrow in as many as 1000 screens across India. This will be a huge opportunity for Baahubali fans to relive the epic beginning before the conclusion comes into theatres. Reportedly, advance booking is pretty solid for the first part. The epic film may create another box office record during its re-release.
Re-releasing hit films was very common from 70s to mid 90s. However, the trend has vanished in the last two decades. Baahubali is bringing it back with its massive re-release, If the ploy works, we can see the many more such films following the suite in future.
Interim, ‘Baahubali 2’ will have the biggest ever release for any Indian film on April 28, 2017.
