Dont know from where should I start adding my 2 cents to this discussion. Yeah but let me begin with the main post ishu.

So,back to our ever-engaging discussion are we?😳😆

Now that just seems like the reason even a 5 year old would come up with.. I mean, no offense but there is no surprise behind it.. We know he is bound to the throne & will do anything (even if he is against it personally)..Did SSR really think that would be good answer to the cliffhanger that kept the nation talking?? I don't think so (I really hope not)

Exactly I HOPE NOT!That's the most obvious of all the reasons and it does not matter (atleast for me) if they bring world class innovation in narrating the events leading to it...it's just the core reason that matters!And I guess it's like that for the nation too once the hype and vfx craze settles.

2) He was tricked by Bhalla/Sivagami into believing that Baahu was a traitor to Maahishmathi.. or that Baahu was attacking Bhalla (who was in throne @ that time) and so in attempt to save the king, he did it.. again.. not an impressive reason if u ask me...you are kind enough to say not impressive'

.i'd say its another stupid,absurd reason.is kattappa a robot or what?with no brain of his own? Though he is a loyal slave warrior, he knows Baahu personally n would know the real side of him.. Would he go to the extent of killing him even if he was attacking Bhalla/throne? I really don't think so.. yeah exactly. He "raised" baahu as they said, so doesn't he know him in and out? Baahu would attack bhalla only if there's a good enough reason/situation.

As we saw in part1,when bijjaladeva gave all good weapons to bhalla, it was kattappa who was fuming and asking baahu to protest and baahu was still smiling.

See,thats the difference in attitude of both kattappa and baahu.And though he was loyal to the throne,we saw many instances in part1:where he showed his open support for baahu (though not as loud as bijjaladeva for bhalla)-but still through gestures and actions:his pride and happiness when he sees baahubali thrashing that kalakeya leader,his disappointment when bijjaladeva announces bhalla as king,his tears of joy when baahu ascends the throne-all this showed he is team baahu and he didn't care to put up a neutral /nishpaksha attitude either.

Do you think SUCH a person will kill baahu just because he's attacking bhalla the king?it's near to impossible logically. In fact,kattappa will be the first to extend support to baahu,directly or indirectly.

3) Anyone other than these 2 - seem unlikely.. 1)Kattappa listens to throne & 2)he cares for Baahu more than anything..

So what could be the reason? Personal vengeance? Not possible, coz if he was going to do that, he would've killed Bhalla by now.. Bhalla himself said how Kattappa wants to kill him (after the bullfight).. least possible reason,kattappa doesn't even think about himself or his life as far as we saw .

To kill a baby he raised.. I personally doubt he did it.. It just seem very unlikely..we don't know the drama that will take place in Part 2 but somehow it takes a lot to bring yourself to even punish the kids you raised..especially in a equation as that of Baahu & Kattappa.. so how can one go to the extent of killing?LOL isn't this confusion making the entire nation ask why Kattappa killed baahubali ?

But on a serious note,we still do not know much about kattappa. We saw how he's crazy about his ancestral oath-and he went to extent of saving bhalla from the bull-a person he despises from the bottom of his heart.

I'd say that's the quality which makes kattappa very dangerous.he apparently doesn't consider his heart's voice in front of that oath.

I had watched the last scene in HD sometime back:in it,there was no ounce of sadness on kattappa s face.His face was contorted with rage and he DID NOT HESITATE for a moment before backstabbing. HE KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING AND WHOM WAS HE STABBING.

Though the setting was dark,in the print I had watched,their facial expressions were very clear.

But still there's a possibility that he just wanted to weaken baahu/delay him (as per someone's orders).maybe he had plans to rescue him later.but then when he came back,baahu was already lying dead,or in the worst scenario,beheaded -by someone else, who took advantage of his injured and weak state (thanks to kattappa)-most possibly bhallaladeva!

And maybe that's why kattappa considers himself as the reason for baahubali s death?that answers your question too.he didn't kill him but he was the reason for it,and so in a way,killed him

*Did someone else kill Baahu and Kattappa took the blame? For the better future of Maahishmathi? Possible..

That's what I mentioned above.and bhallaladeva s dialogue to Devasena in part1 is a proof:'only 2 people utter baahu's name in mahishmati. Devasena-to see him once more before her end and bhallaladeva -to kill him once more with his own hands.

But I don't understand how taking blame for bhalla is for better future of mahishmati?

*Was this all an accident? Kattappa intended to kill someone else n Baahu knowingly/unknowingly came in between? If so, who is that person & their equation among these characters?

I dunno,i don't think it's an accident .least possible .kattappa won't call himself as a traitor who backstabbed' if it was an accident.

*How is Devasena related to all this? I mean, if Kattappa had killed Baahu then why isn't Devasena angry @ him ? Is it only because she understand his helplessness? or is it because she knows something more that others don't know?

The most important question. The mysterious devasena. ...someone whom we have no clue of.

Ishu, do you know the mistake we made whenever we discussed about devasena s role?We saw her character As HOW WE'D LIKE TO SEE IT?and her portrayal in meenu s ff is also according to the picture we have in our mind that she'd be like this,she'd react like this etc. But the truth is that this is just our prediction seeing her in part1.

We do not know who she is,how her mind works,her equation with sivagami, bhallaladeva or baahubali,?

That's why these questions arise.because the devasena we know (or imagined) would've killed Kattappa with her own hands when she comes to know that he killed her husband? But here she talks with him in a civil manner.something very unlikely.

Let me say something; (this was suggested by my friend ):What if it was devasena who had ordered kattappa to kill baahubali? What if bhalla created such a situation that the entire kingdom and sivagami turned against him,they'd insult and throw stones at him, agonising him physically and mentally(more).calling his wife an adultress ,questioning his child s paternity while he'll have no option to watch all this helpless-imagine such was the situation. And devasena says she can't see him die a thousand deaths or die at the hands of his people,why not just kill him kattappa ?so that he won't have to see all this. And maybe that's why kattappa did it and devasena understands him.

(I know this sounds filmy and lame.but this is a possibility too.but I know there could've been a better solution to this situation; they could've gone away from mahishmati far away and could've lived with their son happily.but I won't be surprised if SSR showed this as the reason.as much as I disagree with it (because of the picture of baahu deva in my mind) ,it makes sense too.kiI know we've discussed some of this already.. but since I am not sure of how active I'll be here in April, just felt like going over some points again, as we get closer to the D-day!

I know ishu. Trust me,I'm so happy to see the thread buzzing with active discussions as before Thank you!

I hope you'll find some time to join us in the discussions post movie release .

Insecurity. Even if Bhalla got the throne Baahu and his lineage would always be a threat to him so he wanted to get rid of him and his son forever hence ordered to kill Baahu.
