Baahubali: The Beginning to be screened at Royal Albert Hall London

Indian cinema has produced legions of genre-defining films ever since coming into existence, but the kind of impact that the S.S. Rajamouli-directed films Baahubali: The Beginning (2015)) and Baahubali: The Conclusion (2017) left on the global audience is indelible.

Starring Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Anushka Shetty and Tamannaah in principal roles, the two-film series has gained cult status within a few years of release. After creating an irreplaceable place in audiences’ heart, the magnum opus is set to give India another reason to be proud.


According to reports, Baahubali: The Beginning, the first part of the series, has been selected to be screened at London’s Royal Albert Hall in 2019. Besides Baahubali: The Beginning, Hollywood biggies Skyfall (2012) and Harry Potter and The Goblet Of Fire (2005) have also been chosen for screening to commemorate the 10 years of films in concert series.

“In 2019, we'll be celebrating 10 years of Films in Concert at the Royal Albert Hall. Next year, we have these in store for you: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Skyfall, Baahubali – The Beginning Tickets on sale Friday!” the Royal Albert Hall’s official Twitter Handle announced on Twitter.

The plan is to make possessing or distributing pornographic material that shows sexual strangulation, often called ‘choking’, illegal. This is a specific amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill. Ministers are acting on the back of a stark, independent review. That report found this kind of violence is not just available online, but it is rampant. It has quietly, steadily, become normalised.
