Talks of developing a mobile game based on the epic historical fiction “Baahubali” are in progress.
Mark Skaggs, developer of the super popular game FarmVille and Lord of the Rings games, is talking to SS Rajamouli, director of the film, about making Baahubali mobile game.
The first part of Baahubali, subtitled The Beginning, was released worldwide on 10 July 2015. It starred Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Anushka Shetty and Tamannaah Bhatia in leading roles.
The movie became an instant blockbuster. It is so far the highest-grossing Indian film within India and the third highest grossing Indian film globally.
A post on the official Facebook page of the film read, “Mark Skaggs (from Moonfrog Labs) creator of FarmVille and Lord of the Rings games (among others) discussing the creation of Baahubali mobile game with SS Rajamouli. Exciting stuff coming your way… Stay tuned!”

“Baahubali: The Conclusion”, the second part of the film, is slated for release on 28 April. This movie is expected to answer one of the biggest questions that the first movie left unanswered: “why Kattappa killed Baahubali?”
Rajamouli has already started planning to make a movie on the mythological epic “Mahabharata”. He is reportedly considering casting Rajnikanth, Aamir Khan and Malayalam star Mohanlal, Bollywood Life has reported. Although he is yet to assign roles for these superstars.
