Baahubali 3’ is pretty much confirmed! If reports are to be believed, the third installment of the iconic fantasy series will be made. According to aTimes Of India report, ‘Baahubali 3’ has pretty much been confirmed. In a recent interview, Gnanavel Raja, the creator of the ‘Mahishmati Franchise’ spilled the beans. He said the movie is still in the planning stages, with recent discussions focused on developing new ideas. Unlike their previous back-to-back releases within two years, this time, the 'Baahubali' makers are allowing a longer break before working on the third installment. He elaborated that the filmmakers are deliberately pacing themselves to ensure that audiences have enough time to emotionally reconnect with the characters before diving into sequels. Raja also mentioned that the sequel to 'Kalki 2898 AD' will only come out after two other films are completed, and similarly, there will be a gap between 'Salaar 1' and 'Salaar 2'. He explained that this is a strategy proven effective in franchises like Suriya’s 'Singam' series, where spacing out sequels worked well.

Andrew Holland, CEO, Avendus Capital, says it will be a margin story this earning season and the talk is on the pressure on margins and how that can be relieved. Holland does not think there is anywhere to hide at the moment. One can only hide in a bit of cash. So, increasing cash levels for the next few months would not be a bad idea given that earnings are not going to help. We have got the US elections and geopolitical problems plus, China is expected to do another stimulus. All of that plays badly for India in the short term. Did you anticipate this kind of carnage on Bajaj Auto post its numbers? Andrew Holland: It was not the numbers per se, it was more the commentary, wasn’t it? Whilst the festive season has picked up a little bit, it is nowhere near anyone's expectations. So, it has really thrown a damper on the whole market because we are all hoping or the market was hoping that the festive season would start to see a pickup in consumption and that is clearly not likely to happen now. On top of that, we anyway expected a weak earning season across the board. The market valuations does not support downgrades whether it is a company or the sector or the market overall. If the earnings continue like this, we could see another 5% correction from here.
