For the people who saw ‘Baahubali’ in the first two days after the release, the climax of the film is a bit like a shocker. When Kattappa stabs ‘Amarendra Baahubali, audiences were waiting for something to unfold next. But the end title cards only meant, we have to wait for the second part to know answers.
When Rajamouli was asked about the dissatisfied feeling of the audiences before leaving the theatres, the film maker sees this shock as not an abrupt ending but a suitable climax to have enough to make a sequel. Kattappa scene has a lot of recall value which would have answers in the second part.
Not only the film maker, after the initial shock about the abrupt climax, many audiences and critics could understand the clever ploy of Rajamouli in ending the first part with Kattappa scene to ensure the recall value which would attract audiences to watch the second part without fail.
