SS Rajamouli’s Baahubali: The Epic—a reimagined single-feature version combining Baahubali: The Beginning (2015) and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017)—is all set for its digital premiere following its grand theatrical re-release on October 31.
When and where to watch Baahubali: The Epic?
While an official announcement is still awaited, Baahubali: The Epic is expected to begin streaming on Netflix on Thursday, December 25, coinciding with Christmas. The platform has already hinted at the film’s arrival this week, suggesting an imminent OTT release.
The remastered version has a runtime of 3 hours and 43 minutes. The official synopsis reads:
“Years after his father was betrayed, a warrior battles to reclaim the throne of Mahishmati in this remastered single version of the epic two-part series.”
Interestingly, the film’s end credits also tease an upcoming animated project titled Baahubali: The Eternal War, to be directed by Ishan Shukla.
To mark the 10th anniversary of Baahubali: The Beginning, which released on July 10, 2015, Rajamouli surprised fans by announcing a special cinematic celebration. Both films were merged into a single, seamless narrative experience titled Baahubali: The Epic and brought back to theatres worldwide.
The reimagined presentation released globally on October 31, 2025, offering audiences a refreshed way to experience the iconic saga.
