Baahubali 2: The Conclusion has created a huge rage in the history of the Indian cinema. Many celebrities took to their social media pages to applaud the mammoth film and all credit when to the creator of the magnum opus, SS Rajamouli.

With good reviews, comes bad criticism too. Many viewers talked ill about the film stating that the story lacked its essence and few scenes were over-the-top. 

ChandraNandni's lead Shweta Basu Prasad took to her Facebook page and applauded the success of Baahubali 2. She posted, "Bahubali worked because it's Indian. Completely rooted in its story telling, cultural representation, music, language, martial arts, everything - yet following a universal discipline. Filmmakers in India who sell poverty porn to the west need to bow their heads down to the genius of Rajamouli sir for not giving a fuck and manifesting his imagination. 

The point is: the less you please west, the lesser you will fart in your own country. Simple."

Do you agree with her?

Recently, during an exclusive interaction with PINKVILLA, Shweta was asked about her ChandraNandni journey. To which she said, "It's fantastic. It's already been six months to the show. It's amazing because of its very different kind of show. Both acting wise and personally too I have learnt a lot. So it has been really great."

When asked about the difficulties she faced while playing the character, she said, "It is a historical character. The biggest challenge was the body language. Getting it right was definite no doddle."
