Baahubali! Baahubali! Baahubali! Mari Baahubali mayam ga aipoyyindi ee madhya anukuntunnaara...? Thappuledhu boss....! Aa cinema create chesina impact alaantidhi....! Cinema choosina prathi saari oka kottha vishayam realise avthunnam. Prathi saari SSR genius level story-telling ki inka fans aipothunnaam. For example, beginning titles appudu pade 'Oka Pranam' bit song.
Telugu cinema charitra lo, anthenduku Indian cinema lo ne alaanti goosebumps inducing title cards inka padaledu ani naa feeling ("orey admin ga, buddhunda? Inthakanna thope title cards vacchesinayi" anukuney varu comment chesi naa kallu teripinchagalaru). Baahubali the beginning cinema ninchi konni impactful shots ni 3D models ga present chesi, simple ga cinema start ayye mundu oka recap icchesaaru. Aa visual meedha pade aa lyrics inka gattiga gucchukuntaayi. Ippudu ee video song ni choosthu deeni venaka unna meaning ni grahinchandi.
"Oka Pranam, Oka Tyagam"
Ee shot tho ee song take off avthundi. Ikkada "Oka Praanam" ante dwandva artham undhi. It is both Mahendra's and Sivagami's. Mahendra praanam kaapadataniki thana praananni tyagam chesina Sivagami. Adhi "Oka Tyagam"
"Telipindhaa.....Thana Gamyam"
"Telipindhaa..." anedhi continue avthu next image vasthundi. Dhivara song appudu Sivudu chettu ki guri choosthunna shot. Ante "Thana Gamyam" enti ani telusukodaaniki Sivudu baillderaadu. Taken with the previous line, Oka Tyagam valla migilina ithani Praanam, Ippudu Thana Gamyam ento telusukodaaniki bailderindhi ani.
"Oka Paasham...Thana Nishtayyi...Ragilindha...."
"Oka Paasham" Devasena ni bandhinchina aa sankellu, aameni avamaaninchina aa paasham, aame ki Nishta, ante pattudala or focus ni icchaayi. Thana focus miss avvakunda sankellalo unna Devasena aa kattelu perchukuntu, paga ni ragilinchukuntune undhi.
"Ranathantram!"
"Ragilindha" previous image ninchi continue avthundi. "Ranathantram" Bhallala devudu ragilinchi modalu pettina Ranathantram idhi ani.
"Hananamthone Modalayyinda Havanamlo Jwalanam...Sebaasane Nabham!"
"Hananam" ante hathya. Oka hathya ee havanam, ante homam, lo modati samidha ayyindi ani. Ippatidaaka thana past ento teliyani Sivudu, Bhadra thala narakadam tho inka full fledged ga Bhallala Devudiki edurellinatte. Bhallaludi ni antham chese havanam modalayyindi ikkade ani deeni artham.
"Sebaasane Nabham". Nabham ante aakasam. Ee hathya ki mecchi aakasam sebaasannadhi ani. Correct ga Bhadra thala narikina moment varsham modalavthundi. Idhe aakasam icchina blessing.
"Rara Rammani Rara Rammani Pilichinda Raajyam. Varinchaga Jayam Saantham!"
Kattappa Sivudu face clear ga choosi thane Mahendra Baahubali ani realize aina moment. Raadanukunna Raju tirigocchaadu ane santhosham lo athanni kaalu netthi meedha pettukoni aahvaanisthaadu Kattappa. Ika Amarendrudi vaarasadu tirigocchaka antha jayame ani deeni artham. Athanikosam eduruchusthunna rajyam athanni rammani pilichindi, ika athaniki antha jayame ani.
"Balithaanai....Ulithaanai....Malichenaa......"
One of the most iconic shots of the decade. Kattappa netthi paina Sivudi kaalu! Thana loyalty valla, thana poorveekulu icchina maata valla, thanu enthagaano preminche, abhimaaninche Baahubali ni champaalsi vasthundi. Kattappa thana feelings ni thokkeskoni 'Bali Thaanavthaadu'. Observe chesthe, oka raayi meedha debba veyyadaniki, shilpi, sutthi tho uli ni kodathaadu. Final ga shilpam meedha pade debba maathram 'Uli' de. Bhalla, Sivagami ni manipulate chesi, Kattappa ni Baahubali ni champe 'Uli' la vaadathaadu. Baahubali ni champinchi thana future ni maluchukuntaadu Bhalla.
"Bhavitavyam...Rudhiramlo...Runabandham...Prathi Bottuu...Shaivam...Shivam!"
The most hyped shot. Kattappa killing Baahubali. Pull back chesthu blood ni choopisthu ala ee shot ki vashtaaru final ga. Ikkada Baahubali raktham chindindi. Bhaavi tharaalu, evarikosamaithe Baahubali thapinchi poyyaado, vaarandari rakhtam lo prathi bottu Amarendra rakthaaniki runabandhilu ayyi untaaru. Of course, ikkada inko dwandva artham undi. Bhavitavyam, ante future, Maahishmati future ae kaanavasaramledhu. Baahubali future, ante koduku Mahendrudi di kooda ayyundacchu. Thanaku janmanicchina thandri rakthaniki runam teerchukovaali ani. Paata end ayyedhi..."Shaivam..." ante Shivuni tho..."Shivam" ante Shivudu ani kaadhu. Shivam ante virtue ani. Shivudu neeku andaga unte virtuous path lo ne nadusthaavu nuvvu ani finishing. Of course, correct ga idhe moment ki SS Rajamouli peru paduthundi anukondi.
Inka cheppukuntu pothe ee cinema lo ila high icche chaala hidden meanings untaayi. Asalu only ee titles kosam cinema inkosaari repeat eskunna thappu ledhu. That is the magic of SSR's Visual storytelling.
