Baahubali: The Conclusion is an actual meal

Filmmaker of magnum opus Baahubali series S.S. Rajamouli says the first part of the movie was just a starter. Rajamouli opened up about the scale of "Baahubali: The Conclusion" with film critic Anupama Chopra.

He quipped, "First part is introduction of characters, we haven't really gotten into the plot. The characters are established and we've given all a hookline. The first part was starters and the second part is the actual meal."

He has given five years to the series, "To most in the external, it may feel like one thing that I'm focusing all my energy on, but internally it's a lot of things -- so many elements, so many branches. We are really enjoying it every step of the way. "Now we are all raring to go to work with the other things connected to 'Baahubali' -- the novels, animated series... Overall, the process feels very different and unique," he said.

"When I start telling a story, I feel very confident. I'm not as confident when directing. I have so many doubts running through my mind. So, I'm not very sure footed about what I'm doing and hence I keep going back and forth. "But when I'm telling a story, I know I'm telling it right and I'm sure I'm capturing my listeners' interest," he said.

He also said, "Even small things irritate me. But I also let the few mistakes pass. I am human on the sets."

After Baahubali, Will he consider doing small films?

He said, "It's not like I only want to make big films. It's the nature of subject that makes the film big or small. Each the subject drives its own path. Based on the subject you know who to cast, the budget, the crew, the economics. "It's all subject-driven and not the other way round. I'm happy to do this big film since I wanted to do one for a long time. However, I'm ready to do small films as long as the subject excites me."
