It is now the turn of Shiva alias Mahendra Bahubali to avenge his father’s murder and his mother, Devasena’s captivity by Bhalaladev for 25 long years. Why Katappa had murdered Baahubali is revealed by him (Katappa) to Shiva who has realised that he is actually Amarendra’s 25-year-old son, Mahendra Bahubali. As if this were not bad enough, Katappa kills Amarendra Bahubali on the very day Devasena gives birth to their child. Before she can deliver the child, Amarendra Bahubali and Devasena are thrown out of the palace by Sivagami due to the machinations of Bhalaladev and his father.

Soon, Devasena gets pregnant with Amarendra Baahubali’s child. Although Bahubali marries Devasena, the couple does not have the blessings of Sivagami. Unhappy with Amarendra Bahubali’s stand, Sivagami appoints Bhalaladev as the king, and Amarendra Bahubali as merely his lieutenant. Even Devasena is keen to wed Amarendra Bahubali as she has fallen in love with him. Sivagami has, a few days back, promised her son that she would get him married to Devasena but, unaware of his mother’s promise to Bhalaladev, Amarendra Bahubali has promised Devasena that he would marry her and look after her all his life. However, on the day of the coronation, Sivagami makes Bhalaladev the king because Amarendra Bahubali wants to marry Devasena against Sivagami’s wishes. In fact, Sivagami has decided to make Amarendra Bahubali the king of Mahishmati kingdom, much to the shock of her husband (Nasser) and son, Bhalaladev (Rana Daggubati). In the present film, it is shown that Amarendra Bahubali has been brought up by Sivagami along with her own son, Bhalaladev.
In a sense, the second film in the series is a prequel to the first one as a major part of the second film deals with the flashback about Amarendra Bahubali. It, therefore, tells the story of Shiva’s father, Amarendra Bahubali. The second film in the series sets out to answer why Katappa had killed Baahubali.
Baahubali 2: The Conclusion is the second and final part in the Bahubali series.
