When BollywoodLife got in touch with Rana Daggubati who plays the antagonist Bhallaladeva in the Baahubali franchise, and mentioned the Rs 1000 figure mark, he laughed saying, "Hahaha, it is exciting. It is a huge number, ask me." He further added, "We want to thank every single person of the press in Mumbai and across the country. They really supported the film and owned it. They are why we are here today, and they have made it what it is today. The way the media rallied around the film was very encouraging."
When the portal quizzed Rana about the box office number game the actor said, that the numbers matter a lot as they give them the beilef that they can dream bigger and make bigger films. "Five years back when we were trying to make this film, people thought we were bonkers, making such an expensive film. Then, we stood by it throughout till the end. It shows that if you are honest enough towards your story and content it works.”
