V. Vijayendra Prasad, father of S. S. Rajamouli and the story writer of Baahubali: The Beginning had revealed that he was inspired by the hero introduction sequence of this movie[2] and hence incorporated a similar sequence in the movie Baahubali: The Beginning.[3] He had further revealed that the core story line - where one brother is not given the throne because of his disability, leading to animosity between blood relatives - was also partly inspired by this movie.[4][5]
