Baahubali's Striking Resemblance to MS Dhoni: SS Rajamouli's Reaction is Here!

The cricket legend and former captain of CSK in the Indian Premier League was spotted attending the inaugural event of SS Rajamouli’s new series in the Baahubali franchise, 'Baahubali: Crown of Blood,' in Hyderabad. Rajamouli acknowledged Dhoni's likeness for the character - Amarendra Baahubali.

While showcasing the trailer of the series, the audience noticed a resemblance of Dhoni to the animated character of Amarendra Baahubali. The Baahubali franchise has already attained global recognition, and now the addition of a resemblance between MS and the character can create unreal hype for the franchise. When questioned about this, Rajamouli, the Telugu filmmaker, responded with a warm smile, saying that perhaps the creators of the animated series were fans of MS Dhoni, just as much as he is a fan of the former Indian skipper.

The new series, Baahubali: Crown of Blood, revolves around the story where Bhallaladeva and Baahubali join hands to save the Kingdom of Mahishmati from falling into peril.

On the other hand, Dhoni, unable to gain ground with CSK, lost the recently achieved 3rd position on the IPL table to SRH, who absolutely destroyed Lucknow’s defense in their recent match and secured their position over CSK. The former skipper struggles with his injury but contributes to the team with his active participation.
