Baahubali: Before The Beginning | Netflix | In Production

The series was to be directed by Kunal Deshmukh who has opted out of the project. A source said to ETimes, "The project which has now been paused has Bombay Fables taking over as creative producers."

Actress Wamiqa Gabbi was signed on to play Sivagami and South superstar Nayanthara was roped in for her digital debut. While there is no clarity on Wamiqa Gabbi to continue, Nayanthara will remain part of the series.

 
I'm pretty sure it won't see light of the day in the next few years. They have already scrapped one version and are about to do the same for another. It's better if they step out of the project completely and hand it over to some other platform.
 
However, Netflix was not entirely happy with the finished product, Variety has learned and considered bringing in other directors, including one who had directed two previous Netflix projects. There were mid-stream cast changes as well.

” ‘Baahubali: Before the Beginning’ is one of the country’s most loved IPs (but) creating India’s first epic series comes with its own challenges,” the source added. “The last two years with COVID were full of complexities and hurdles, which impacted productions, especially one of this scale.”

The streamer is “reevaluating the project to bring the best version of this story” to audiences, the source explained.
