Actor Boman Irani is gearing up for the release of his highly anticipated movie, The Raja Saab. The actor attended the launch event of the new song, Naache Naache, from the film, along with Malavika Mohanan, Nidhhi Agerwal, Riddhi Kumar and Zarina Wahab in Hyderabad. During the event, he shared his experience of working with Prabhas in the film and also lauded the Telugu star's grounded nature despite being a superstar. He also shared details about Prabhas' behaviour on sets with his team and crew.

Boman Irani Praises The Raja Saab Co-Star Prabhas

During the song launch event, Boman praised Prabhas while sharing his experience working with him. He said, "There is an aura when you see him in movies. He’s got this larger-than-life aura. We expect that his behaviour would also be like a superstar. And it’s not. With his team, with the other actors, with the actors with the smaller parts, with the technicians, with every single person, Prabhas talks like a young boy. There’s something very boyish about him. There’s something very innocent about him. He’s enjoying his superstardom, but he’s not putting it in your face."

Praising Prabhas' humility, the veteran actor added, "He’s a superstar, we recognise it, but he doesn’t want you to treat him like a superstar. And I think all of us agree in that way. He likes to joke, he likes to laugh, and anybody says something funny, he’s the first one to laugh the loudest and the longest, as if to say he’s still a teenager. It’s so beautiful. The innocence of a person who has reached a certain level, that is retained, I would like to be like that."

He also shared his wife's reaction when he was offered Prabhas starrer The Raja Saab. He revealed that his wife immediately told him to 'Do it' and didn't even let him listen to the script.

During the event, Boman also revealed that he performed his own stunts in Maruthi's directorial. He shared how watching his body double perform bold stunts motivated him to try them himself. Recalling his conversation with The Raja Saab director, the actor said, "Maruthi asked, 'Are you sure, sir?' I said yes. Kya hi hoga, ek do scratches lagenge zyada se zyada. Mera jo experience hai, ye hai ki darne se achchha hai karne se. What's the point of being afraid? Try toh karo."
