Rajamouli and the storywriter of Baahubali: The Beginning had revealed that he was inspired by the hero introduction sequence of the 1967 Kannnada film, Immadi Pulikeshi, based on the life of the Chalukya king, Pulakeshin II and hence incorporated a similar sequence. While Amarendra was gracious and loved his countrymen, Bhallaladeva was violent and achieved his goals by any means possible.
Both young men were trained in arts, science, disguise, politics, and warfare, but they had different approaches towards kingship. Amarendra was brought up together with Bijjaladeva and Sivagami's son Bhallaladeva. Bijjaladeva's wife Sivagami assumed control of the kingdom with Kattappa's assistance until a new king could be selected. His uncle Bijjaladeva ( Nassar) was deemed unfit to rule due to his crooked nature, however he believes he was denied the throne due to the fact that one of his arms is disabled. Amarendra's father had died long ago, while his mother died giving birth to him. He narrates the story of Amarendra's past. After Shivudu beheads Bhadrudu, Kattappa drops his weapon, realising that Shivudu is Mahendra Baahubali, the son of late king Amarendra Baahubali.
Sivudu manages to flee with Devasena, but is chased down by Bhallaladeva's son, Bhadrudu ( Adivi Sesh) and the slave-soldier Kattappa ( Sathyaraj).
