Well, if you are one of those crores of people who are still wondering that why Katappa killed Baahubali, the ‘secret’ has been revealed. The answer, however, is not that simple as you would have imagined. The revelation was made by none other than the actor Sathyaraj, who played the role of character ‘Kattappa’ in the movie Baahubali. The answer for which crores of people were waiting came in an interview with journalist Anupama Chopra. Well, Kattappa is not just a Baahubali character, he is the star of internet memes. A million of online jokes and memes have been made on Katappa’s name. This time, Katappa, who has denied to answer the question, finally revealed: “Because my director told me to.”
Sathyaraj further said he has been asked this question a hundred times. Last year, in a video interview, SS Rajamouli was asked the same question and his answer was similar, “Kattappa killed Baahubali because I asked him to.” Sathyaraj added that he has been asked this question incessantly but that doesn’t bother him. “Everyone in the world is asking me the same thing that why Kattappa killed Baahubali. I don’t even get irritated by that question. I have not even told my family about it,” he said.

“I have been in the industry for over 40 years. It is not ethical to reveal climax or the crucial part of the story. I knew the character would become famous but had no idea that it would gain so much popularity across the nation,” he added. “Even memes were being made on the different situations. Like when demonetisation happened, there were memes on my character and the question that why Kattappa killed Baahubali. I feel happy about it.” he said. On being asked about typecastasation by the audience, Katappa said: “I don’t fear. I have done Amitabh Bachchan’s Agneepath in Tamil and even played Boman Irani’s character from 3 Idiots”
