Baahubali Took Away 2 Blockbusters From Rana

Tollywood's macho man Rana Daggubati has become an overnight phenomenon nationwide thanks to the monstrous success of Baahubali and his menacing performance as the cruel Bhallaladeva. Rana won an immense fan adulation too with the film's gigantic success. However, here are a couple of solo blockbusters which Rana did lose due to Baahubali. Apparently, director Anil Ravipudi first approached Rana for his blockbuster debut film Patas. Rana couldn't accept the film as he was busy shooting for Baahubali. And the second blockbuster which got everyone talking was Thani Oruvan, the smashing Tamil thriller which is going to be remade in Telugu by Rana's close friend Ram Charan. While most of the credit for Baahubali's success went to Prabhas and Rajamouli, the two missed blockbusters would have cemented Rana's position as a solo star.
