At first glance, the plot looks a bit like Shakespeare's Hamlet.
In fact, it has a native Indian style and is adapted from Indian mythology.
I don't agree with those who exaggerate how much better this film is than our special effects. But there is something to be commended. Spoilers involved below. If you don't need it, please block it yourself.
At the beginning of the story, a woman in exquisite and noble clothes hugged a small baby to avoid the pursuit and escaped to a waterfall. The woman designed to kill the two soldiers who were chasing and killed, and then slipped into the turbulent river inadvertently. inside.
Seeing that she was about to be submerged by the river, she held the baby in her hands and made a wish to the Hindu god Shiva.
The shot was turned into a movie poster, with a crying baby held up in a hand in the river.
Soon, they were washed downstream with the current, and the baby was rescued by the queen here. The queen was barren, so they thought of the child as a gift from Shiva. At the same time, they also found the soldier killed by the woman by the river. , Although I don't know the reason, I also understand that this child is being chased and killed. So the queen raised herself and named him Shiwa.
Shiwa was like an obsession since he was a child. He went to the waterfall every day, climbed along the rocks, and vowed to climb to the top of the mountain. Everyone laughed at him. His adoptive mother also prayed to Shiva every day that he would wake up soon and stop crawling. Twenty-five years later, Shiva is still climbing, although not once. But it also builds muscle and strength. Of course, it later proved that he was more of a divine power bestowed by the director! With the aura of the protagonist, he can't die, and he is very domineering.
On this day, Shiwa climbed halfway up the mountain and suddenly saw a plump fairy wearing a colorful butterfly, dancing on the opposite bank across a cliff of more than one meter. Driven by the strong hormones, Shiwa leaped over the cliff. . This is the first slot, which is too exaggerated. But continue to watch, the director said that this is "God"!
Just as you were chasing me with the fairy, Shiwa gradually climbed to the top of the waterfall. 25 years, finally came up. What about fairies? Of course it disappeared... Otherwise, do you think it is the story of the Seven Fairies and Dong Yong?
After reaching the top, Shiwa was like Tao Yuanming's first discovery of the Peach Blossom Spring, like the frog at the bottom of the well finally jumping ashore. In short, he looked left and right. At this time, a beautiful woman in a battle suit appeared, and Shiwa was shocked. He was about to rush up to say hello, but found that the beautiful soldier was followed by a string of pursuers. Without waiting for Shiwa to help, the valiant and heroic beautiful warriors and accomplices killed these people. Shiva is deeply rooted in this love. After several rounds of Indian dances like a drama, Shiwa and the beautiful warrior slept in the same bed.
The next day, another group of chasing soldiers followed, and Shiwa escaped with the female warrior, causing an avalanche in the middle. This is the second slot, you think you are a god, well, the director said you are, you are.
The female warrior's leg was injured during the escape, so she could not successfully complete the task of rescuing the princess. As an avalanche who has run, of course, the almighty man who has jumped over the cliff has to take over this important task and complete the task for his girlfriend. Shiwa pretended to be ordinary people and took advantage of the opportunity (can't remember the name of the country, too long and too convoluted) that the king of this country wanted to erect his own mighty sculpture, and the whole world celebrated the opportunity to sneak into the city. Taking advantage of the dark and windy night, he entered the palace and successfully found the princess to be rescued, but only disturbed the palace. The king is not a vegetarian either, and seeing someone so bold is certainly frustrating. The crown prince led the slaves and soldiers to chase them all the way out. In a place where no street signs were written, Shiwa was caught up and got out of the car to fight. While you were coming and going, Shiwa's adoptive parents were worried about getting lost because their son had been away from home for a long time, so they also found this place. The female warrior and her companions were worried that the rescue would be poor, so they rushed to support and found this place.
So it's all here.
Shiwa was brave and killed the crown prince. Just when he was fighting the family slave (an important character) to the death, a lightning bolt came over. I'm sorry, but he didn't hit Shiwa, but just illuminated Shiwa's face. Yes, lightning sometimes plays a role in the film, just like a flashlight... The house slave did not start, but plopped down and knelt in front of Shiwa, shouting: "Baahubali"! Shiwa felt inexplicable, so the family slave began a long historical explanation.
This is where we enter official history. Baahubali is Shiwa's father, and the princess he just rescued was his biological mother who had been imprisoned for 25 years. They were originally the king and queen of the country. The current king is Shiwa's uncle. It was a bloody affair of court infighting. Specifically how to fight, the director of Baahubali (below) will tell you!
