5 reasons why every girl wants to be Devasena from Baahubali 2, thanks to Anushka Shetty

After two years, Baahubali: The Conclusion hit 8000 screens across the nation. The movie witnessed an unprecedented buzz, beating even the Rajinikanth mania. Ever since its release, reviews have been pouring in on social media, online praising the Baahubali team for its commendable effort. While fans are relieved as they finally know why Kattappa killed Baahubali, they can’t stop gushing about the VFX, the characters and the action sequences. Prabhas as Amarendra Bahubali was phenomenal, he looked every bit the royal, humble king! We couldn’t have had anybody else playing the role. But there’s the other character that has caught people’s eye. In fact, if its possible, she has found herself a huge fan base overnight. We are talking about Devasena played by Anushka Shetty. She was the perfect definition of bold and beautiful. She is what you would call the opposite of a damsel in distress. SS Rajamouli has send out a powerful message with Devasena’s character – even back in those times, women could be powerful yet feminine. Sivakami has already set that example in Part 1 but today we want to gush about Devasena. Here’s why every woman wants to be Devasena.
Unapologetic about being herself – She says what she wants to and says it well. It may sting, but she cares two hoots. She believes in speaking the truth and that’s what is most important to her.
Brave and Gutsy – (SPOILER) When her Kuntala Kingdom was attacked, she woke up with a start, but she didn’t cry out for help. Instead she prepared herself and carried her quiver of arrows and bow. Even when her chariot was attacked, she drew out her sword to kill all of them herself. She doesn’t need anybody’s help!
Confidence – (SPOILER) When the Mahishmati Kingdom sent her a world of wealth, she wasn’t too impressed. Instead sent them a fitting reply. Even when she was accused cutting of a the warrior’s fingers, she didn’t bat an eyelid when she was asked why she did so.  That scene where she walks with Amarendra to get to the boat. Couldn’t help but applaud her swag! There is an air of surety around her that you want to imbibe yourself.
Feminine yet strongShe sets the perfect example of a feminine woman with a mind of her own. Just because she’s feminine, doesn’t mean she’s delicate! Beneath all that stunning beauty, lies a woman you dare not mess with.
She gets to be marry Amarendra – Of course we want to be Devasena if we can get to marry Amarendra Bahubali – the epitome of royalty, strength and humility!
