'Baahubali' is inspired by 'Ambuli Mama': Kamal Haasan
Elements from Mahabharatha, Ramayana and Amar Chitra Katha (allegedly) aside, the story writer Vijayendra Prasad seems to have borrowed some points from the Tamil TV series 'Ambuli Mama' in writing 'Baahubali'. Â If Kamal Haasan is to be believed, the story is a rehash of 'AM' too, besides Mahabharatha. Â (Note: We don't know if Ambuli mama is an equivalent of Katappa mama!).
