A viral clip from Baahubali: The Torchbearer, the franchise documentary, has sparked speculation about expansion of the Baahubali universe. In the clip, Rana Daggubati teases more from the franchise, while Prabhas is seen flashing three fingers, leaving fans wondering if it hints at Baahubali 3.
Fresh speculation over Baahubali 3 has erupted after a viral clip from the documentary Baahubali: The Torchbearer showed actors Prabhas, Rana Daggubati and Anushka Shetty appearing to hint at another film in the franchise.
In the clip, Rana says, “The world may not be ready yet, but there will be Baahubali...” before Prabhas holds up three fingers and smiles, drawing laughter from those on the couch, including Anushka. The moment has quickly become a talking point among fans, especially as the clip ends with the words, “And the legacy continues!”
Many social media users have treated it as a confirmation that Part 3 is on the way. There is still no word on when director SS Rajamouli may begin the project, what direction the story could take, what medium would they explore or when any official announcement may come.
One X user wrote, “The all-time greatest Indian movie’s third instalment Baahubali 3 is now official (sic).”

A third said, “Baahubali 3 is officially happening! The wait is finally coming to an end. S.S. Rajamouli, along with Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, and Anushka Shetty, has confirmed that the official announcement for Baahubali 3 is on the way.”
The same user also wrote that Baahubali changed Indian cinema and set new standards in storytelling, scale, visuals and box office success.
“Now, with Baahubali 3, expectations are bigger than ever. If Rajamouli delivers another masterpiece, this film has every chance of becoming the biggest Indian movie of all time and creating a brand-new box office benchmark. This is not just a sequel - it’s a cinematic event that millions of fans have been waiting for. The king is ready to return,” the user added.
