As Bhallaladeva of Baahubali turns 32 today, the filmmakers pushed out the first look of Rana Daggubati from Baahubali 2 and the actor looks as bestial as he can get.
With a vicious glare, salt-and-pepper hair with a man bun, cladding a bullish armour and holding a humongous retractable mace, King Bhallaladeva ( or Palvalthevan) is sure to cause a lot of destruction in Baahubali: The Conclusion, as S S Rajamouli puts it.
The actor was also seen pushing his boundaries for the physique with more than two hours training every day for the last five months. For both younger and older Bhallala in the story, the actor said to have switched weight anywhere from 108-110 kg to 92-92 kg. Rana also assured his fandom that this movie packs a lot of action sequences that it will make the prequel look small.
