The Baahubali films might be known for its stars Prabhas and Rana Daggubati and, of course, its director SS Rajamouli but few know that Baahubali's story was the creation of Rajamouli's father KV Vijayendra Prasad, the veteran screenwriter. SS Rajamouli was present with Baahubali's producer Shobu Yarlagadda, art director Sabu Cyril and cinematographer KK Senthil Kumar at the event. "My father hugged me twice or thrice after Baahubali released, something he has never done before in my life," said Rajamouli. Interestingly, Rajamouli's Baahubali films are pretty much a family affair. Apart from a father-son duo helming the content of the Baahubali films, Rajamouli's cousin MM Keeravani has composed for both the films.
