Sources have stated that Maha Shivarathri poster of Baahubali 2 is getting rave response all over. Prabhas climbing an elephant through its trunk is visually appealing. Fans are going gaga over the new poster. But naturally, the team had to face plagiarism allegations. Social media folks have started comparing it with that of ‘Ong Bak 2’.
Of course, the poster of 2008 martial arts film has got some resemblance to Baahubali 2’s latest poster. The film’s lead star Tony Jaa is also seen climbing Elephant’s trunk and fighting with his enemy. Similar allegations were made when first poster of Baahubali: The Beginning was released in 2015.
The stowed away baby
carried over river bed was alleged to have been copied from Hollywood
film ‘Simon Birch’. However, later it was found that it was actually inspired
from Lord Krishna’s birth episode of Mahabharatha and a painting of legendary
Telugu artist. Whether the latest elephant poster has some other
inspiration or is it has been lifted from Ong Bak 2, SS Rajamouli alone can
answer it.
