Telugu blockbuster ‘Baahubali’ will soon be paving its way into the theaters in Japan after the deal inked with Japanese distributors Twin Co. The film’s rights were sold in China in September and now its producer Shobu Yarlagadda has closed the deal with Japanese distributors. Details of the deal’s amount or number of screenings have yet not been revealed. However it is certain that the team is planning on taking the film worldwide before its sequel releases.
‘Baahubali’ has proved to be a blockbuster hit shattering records since its release. Producer Shobu Yarlagadda will soon be approaching Latin America, Germany and European territories shortly to close the deals there as well. While China has opened its arms and welcomed Bollywood films like ‘PK’, Japan is slowly following its footsteps.
After the hugely successful run in India, ‘Baahubali – The Beginning’ is now all set to wow audiences worldwide. The company which previously handled the release of ‘PK’ in China, had officially acquired the rights to the film and intends to release the film in over 5000 screens across mainland China. S.S.
