Lucknow: Samajwadi patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav finally knows why Katappa killed Bahubali. He has also learnt a few lessons in palace intrigue after watching Baahubali-2 at a local multiplex theatre on Tuesday night.

Accompanied by about ten associates, friends and party leader, Mr Yadav watched the film. He was apparently keen to know why Katappa killed Baahubali because he said that he had watched and liked the first part of the film.

“I don’t watch films but have seen a few in the past 15 years and this one is the best”, he said after watching the film. He said that he had heard a lot about the film from people and came to see if it was worth it. Mr Yadav had earlier watched films like Baghbaan — one special request by the Bachchans— , Bahubali –The Beginning and then Bajirao Mastani.

Among those who accompanied Mr Mulayam Yadav in the film outing, included two Akhilesh baiters, Mohd Shahid who was recently expelled and Ashu Malik, MLC.
