Baahubali 3 Officially Confirmed? Rana Daggubati & Prabhas Hint at Rajamouli’s Next Epic

The wait for Baahubali 3 may finally be coming to an end. Years after Baahubali: The Beginning and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion redefined Indian cinema, fans have finally received the biggest hint yet that the blockbuster franchise is set to continue.

The surprise comes in the closing moments of Netflix’s documentary series, Baahubali: The Torchbearer. During a light-hearted conversation featuring Prabhas, Rana Daggubati and Anushka Shetty, Rana jokingly says, “The world may not be ready yet, but there will be Baahubali…” Before he can complete the sentence, Prabhas flashes three fingers with a smile, leaving everyone on the couch laughing, including Anushka. The documentary then ends with the powerful message, “And the legacy continues!”

The brief yet unforgettable moment has instantly gone viral across social media, with fans treating it as the strongest indication yet that Baahubali 3 is indeed in the works. While the makers have not announced the project through an official statement, the playful exchange between Rana and Prabhas has sparked massive excitement among fans worldwide.

The Baahubali franchise remains one of the biggest milestones in Indian cinema, expanding beyond films through books, animated series and immersive experiences. Even after all these years, Mahishmati continues to enjoy an unmatched fan following, and the possibility of a third installment has always remained one of the most discussed topics among movie lovers.

As of now, there is no information about when director SS Rajamouli will begin work on the film or what the story will explore. Rajamouli is currently focused on his ambitious project with Mahesh Babu, so fans may have to wait a little longer before an official announcement arrives.

OG 2: Sujeeth Begins Work on Ojas Gambheera’s Dark Past Story

The OG universe is all set to expand as director Sujeeth has reportedly begun work on OG 2, the much-anticipated sequel to Pawan Kalyan’s blockbuster action drama. Following the massive success of OG, which emerged as one of the biggest hits in Pawan Kalyan’s career, the makers have officially started story discussions for the next chapter.

The latest development has generated huge excitement among fans, especially after the makers hinted at unexplored layers of Ojas Gambheera’s character. While the first film established Gambheera as a ruthless and powerful force, the sequel is expected to dive deep into his mysterious and violent past.

Sources suggest that Sujeeth is currently working on the screenplay and narrative structure for OG 2. The ongoing story sittings indicate that the project is in its early stages, with the filmmaker carefully crafting a larger and more intense continuation of the OG universe.

One of the most intriguing aspects of the sequel is its reported Japanese connection. OG 2 is expected to reveal the origins of Ojas Gambheera and explore the events that shaped him into the feared figure seen in the first installment. The darker backstory and international backdrop are likely to add a fresh dimension to the franchise.

However, fans may have to wait a little longer before the film goes on floors. Pawan Kalyan is currently occupied with his duties as the Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh and is balancing a busy political schedule. Industry reports suggest that the actor may resume film commitments only after November.

If all goes according to plan, OG 2 promises to be a bigger, darker, and more explosive chapter, offering audiences a closer look at the man behind the legend, Ojas Gambheera.

Venezuela Earthquake 2026: Twin Quakes Trigger Massive Destruction, Death Toll Could Reach 10,000

A devastating natural disaster has struck Venezuela after two powerful earthquakes hit the South American nation within seconds of each other, triggering widespread destruction and raising fears of a massive loss of life.

According to preliminary estimates cited in reports, the disaster could have claimed as many as 10,000 lives, while some projections warn that the final toll may be significantly higher if the extent of the damage is confirmed.

The first earthquake reportedly measured 7.1 on the Richter scale and struck at around 3:34 AM IST. Just 40 seconds later, a second and even stronger quake measuring 7.5 followed. The shallow depth of the earthquakes estimated at just 10 to 13 kilometers below the surface intensified the destructive impact.

The epicenter was reportedly located near Morón on Venezuela’s Caribbean coast, approximately 160 kilometers west of the capital city, Caracas. Tremors were felt across large parts of the country and reportedly reached neighboring Colombia, including the capital city of Bogotá.

Several multi-storey residential and commercial buildings are believed to have collapsed in Caracas, particularly in areas such as Altamira. Emergency responders are racing against time to rescue people trapped beneath the rubble, though rescue operations have been complicated by damaged infrastructure and communication failures.

The earthquakes also caused widespread power outages and internet disruptions across affected regions. Authorities temporarily suspended operations at Caracas International Airport after reports of damage to airport facilities and sections of the runway.

Given the coastal location of the epicenter, officials issued tsunami warnings as a precautionary measure. Residents in vulnerable coastal zones were advised to remain alert and follow emergency instructions.

The timing of the disaster has added to concerns. The earthquakes struck on a national holiday commemorating a historic military victory associated with Venezuela’s independence movement, meaning many people were at home when the buildings collapsed.

As rescue teams continue to assess the damage, Venezuela faces one of the most serious natural disasters in its modern history. Authorities are expected to release official casualty and damage figures once emergency assessments are completed.

The film is being directed by newcomer Vamsy Reddy Dondapati, while producer Bunny Vas is backing the project.
