SS Rajamouli opted for actors who suit for his characters, still he did take those actors who are popular in different languages for Baahubali.
Nasser, Satyaraj, Ramyakrishnan, Tamannah and Anushka have good appeal in Tamil Nadu too, hence, he took them and added Keecha Sudeepa in first part, to get South Indian audiences attention.
He did not expect movie to become such a big phenomenon in North Indian markets, so there were no Hindi actors in it. We hear that for #RRR, he has plans to rope in Hindi actors, Tamil actors as well to give it Pan-Indian appeal.
KGF Chapter-1, did not have such huge plans hence, Prashanth Neel the director, took all Kannada actors. Movie on the strength of its content and execution, became a big blockbuster.
There is a huge demand for KGF Chapter-2 and for it, Prashanth roped Sanjay Dutt for Villain role and even has plans to add Telugu, Tamil actors to explore the markets further, it seems.
Yash could become a huge attraction in Telugu states and with him if some known faces add to the mix, movie could go on to become even bigger success and Sanjay Dutt is an Pan-Indian star, so he can give the movie a big push in North too.
Seems like Rajamouli did not just give them a way to take their movie to other markets he is also giving them ways to increase returns from box office, however indirectly!
