Meanwhile, actress Anushka Shetty, who plays the character of Maharani Devasena, is losing weight before she begins shooting for Baahubali: The Conclusion'
"I'm still required to lose about seven to eight kilos before I join the sets of Baahubali 2. We could've used prosthetics, but since we wanted it to look natural, I decided to gain weight without the aid of technology and make-up" she said.
A source close to the project add "Since Bahubali Returns was planned simultaneously with the first Bahubali film, much of the war scenes and some other key sequences have already been shot. Now about 70 percent of the film remains to be shot with Anushka Shetty, Prabhas and Sathyaraj leading the cast this time"
The first Baahubali' film was the biggest grosser in the history of Telugu cinema and the Hindi version went on to collect more than Rs 110 crore.
