After the initial disappointment over the morning shows of Baahubali: The Conclusion being cancelled in Tamil Nadu, fans who have eagerly awaited the magnum opus cannot stop raving about the film on Twitter.
Initial reviews and reactions are pouring in on social media as people watch the first few shows, including the Thursday premieres, across the country. The filmmakers would be happy to know that most reactions are ones of awe and appreciation.
However, as it happens often, there are plenty of people posting spoilers online too, especially to the question which has bugged people for almost two years now: why Katappa killed Baahubali! And those who haven't watched the film are not pleased. And they've expressed themselves like true Baahubali enthusiasts - with Baahubali gifs!
