A few visuals rumoured to be from the highly anticipated Baahubali: The Conclusion were doing the rounds on social media on Wednesday.
According to reports, the images were leaked from a screening.
The first image is a shot of Prabhas, who plays the protagonist in the film, while the second picture shows the logo of Baahubali 2.
The third image appears to have been taken during the intermission of the film.
However, producer Shobu Yarlagadda took to Twitter to issue a clarification and said, "Except for screening to various "censor boards" in different countries, there have been no screenings of @BaahubaliMovie 2 till now anywhere."(sic).
Elaborating further to BehindWoods, the producer said, "There are some rumors in the online media that the film had a screening. I wish to reiterate that besides the mandatory censor certification screening, we have not had any other screening. There were a couple of images which had come out unofficially, we are trying to investigate where they came from”.
