  • Celebrating #HBD Prabhas: 10 Lesser-Known Facts About the Baahubali Star on His Birthday!

    Pan-India star Prabhas has won millions of fans with his acting and his kindness. Particularly recognized for his role in ‘Baahubali,’ he brought Telugu cinema to a global stage. It can be said that the records created by Prabhas as a movie hero are unparalleled. Today (October 23) is Prabhas’ birthday. As he steps into his 45th year, here are some intriguing details about his personal and film career for you.

    Average in Studies

    Prabhas was an average student academically. He wasn’t the type to sit in class for long periods and looked forward to the drill period eagerly. He was known for skipping classes to play games.

    Forgetful

    Prabhas is somewhat forgetful. He shared in an interview that his friends used to call him ‘Ghajini’ since his school days. He recounted how he often forgot his pen during exams and would leave his book in one place and forget where it was. He has admitted that he has improved a bit since his childhood.

    ‘You, a Hero?’

    At the beginning of his career, when Prabhas told a friend that he wanted to become a film hero, his friend laughed and said, ‘You, a hero?’ When he shared this with his family, they were initially shocked but later sent him to Satyanand in Visakhapatnam for training. After three months of training, he received the offer for ‘Eeswar.’

    The Reason Behind the Darling Call

    Prabhas frequently uses the word ‘Darling’ to address his friends and close ones. He explained that he feels uncomfortable calling someone brother or ‘anna,’ which is why he prefers calling them ‘Darling.’ Noticing this, director Puri Jagannadh popularized this nickname through the film ‘Bujjigadu,’ and it became even more popular with the movie ‘Darling.’

    Guest Roles

    The Rebel Star Prabhas appeared in a guest role in the Hindi movie ‘Action Jackson’ (2014) directed by dance master Prabhu Deva starring Ajay Devgn. In the song ‘Punjabi Mast,’ he danced alongside Sonakshi Sinha. Decades later, he is set to appear in a guest role in the movie ‘Kannappa’ and gave a voice-over for the movie ‘Denikaina Ready.’

    Two Films with His Uncle

    The late actor Krishnam Raju was Prabhas’ uncle, and Prabhas entered the industry as his heir. Prabhas deeply admired his uncle and acted with him in films like ‘Billa’ and ‘Rebel.’ Prabhas often shares that these two films provided him with many sweet memories.

    Thrice With Each

    In his career, Prabhas has acted in the most films with two heroines, Trisha and Anushka, sharing the screen three times each. He starred with Trisha in ‘Bujjigadu,’ ‘Varsham,’ and ‘Pournami.’ With Anushka, he acted in ‘Billa,’ ‘Mirchi,’ and ‘Baahubali.’

    The First South Indian Hero

    Prabhas was the first South Indian hero to have a wax statue at the prestigious Madame Tussauds in the ‘Baahubali’ getup. Following him, Tollywood stars Mahesh Babu, Allu Arjun, and recently Ram Charan have achieved this honor.

    If Not an Actor…

    Prabhas once expressed that working with the famous Bollywood director Rajkumar Hirani would be a dream come true. If he had not been an actor, he mentioned that he would have settled in the hotel business.
