Prabhas starrer Baahubali Chapter 1 and Baahubali Chapter 2 have created history in India for stupendous box office success. There is not a single person who would say, he didn’t like the SS Rajamouli’s high budget movie.
The success of the movie has also made fans call Prabhas as Baahubali. Recently, superstar used the name of Amarendra Baahubali to compare one of his players of his KKR team.
Shah Rukh Khan compared Andre Russell’s lightning strike against the RCB (Royal Challengers Bangalore) to Amarendra Baahubali.
Taking to his twitter, he wrote: “Well played boys @KKRiders @lynny50 @NitishRana_27 @robbieuthappa . Each one in the team did so well but you all will agree all words of praise r worth less than this picture…[sic]”.

King Khan tweeted along with the photoshopped picture of Russell in Amarendra Baahubali’s avatar. It is an iconic pose and picture of Prabhas in Baahubali. It symbolises the power of a warrior and Shah Rukh Khan could not have found a better way to describe Andre Russell’s winning knock as he superimposed his picture on a photo of Prabhas’ character of Amarendra Baahubali. Indeed, he compared Russell’s on-field onslaught to the gigantic success of SS Rajamouli’s film at the box office.
Responding to Shah Rukh Khan’s post, the official Twitter handle of Baahubali posted, “Fantastic play @KKRiders Jai Maahishmathi. Let’s keep the spirit HIGH… @IamSRK !!.”

Andre Russell changed the course of the game with his batting treat as he scored 48 of 13 balls. He smashed 7 sixes and a boundary in his brilliant knock, which helped the KKR to win the match by five wickets.
The RCB had set the target of 206 and the KKR chased the total with five balls to spare.
