Prabhas is presently preparing for the much-anticipated premiere of 'Salaar' scheduled for December 22nd, promising an immersive multi-language cinematic extravaganza accessible in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam. Helmed by the esteemed filmmaker Prashanth Neel, expectations run high for the movie to break multiple records. In a recent interview, Prabhas candidly discussed the surge in fame following his role in the blockbuster film Baahubali.

In a conversation with SS Rajamouli, the actor said, "It was tough after Baahubali. I didn’t know what to do. I suddenly went from the Telugu film industry to pan-India and the world."

He added, "I was in Italy and suddenly someone came up to me. They called me by my name, but they didn’t understand English. Someone else explained that the man had seen Baahubali, so he recognised me, and I blamed Rajamouli for my loss of privacy."

The actor further said, "Everywhere I went, people spoke of KGF and I hadn’t seen the film yet. I was later introduced to Prashanth, but we’re both so shy we spoke about everything but working together. It’s only later that he approached me for Salaar."

"I considered saying no. But I thought, if my fans find out, they’ll kill me. I agreed despite being busy with Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD. Instead of the 45 days they initially asked, I ended up shooting for 102 days," Prabhas stated.
