Prabhas, the Pan-Indian Rebel Star, continues to maintain strong momentum with consecutive successes. He focuses on delivering the content his fans crave and has achieved significant victories. Notably, his film "Kalki" crossed Rs. 1100 crore, solidifying his position as the number one hero in India.



In the Romantic Horror Genre...



Stepping out from the success of "Kalki," Prabhas is now focusing on his future projects. He is actively participating in the shooting of "The Raja Saab" under the direction of Maruthi. After "Kalki," while he was set to act in "Spirit" directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, it seems Prabhas has been shooting extensively for "The Raja Saab." Known for enthralling audiences with mass action films, Darling seems to have taken a break to choose the romantic horror genre. They are ready to release "The Raja Saab" first, which is being filmed in this genre.







Surprise at 5 PM



The promotional images already released from this film have captivated audiences and fans alike. In keeping with this, the makers of "Raja Saab" delivered a surprise by releasing a glimpse on Monday (July 29) at 5:03 PM. Fans, affectionately called 'Darlings', are raving about it on social media, praising Prabhas's handsome look and posting comments like "awesome". They are also complimenting the superb background music in the glimpse. Music for this film is being provided by composer Thaman. The filmmakers are planning to release the movie on April 10 next year.







The Hindi Song Remix



Director Maruthi is considering remixing a super hit old Hindi song for "The Raja Saab." Discussions are also ongoing with music director Thaman about this remix. Currently, the makers are considering three songs for the final selection. There is strong buzz in film circles that the evergreen Bollywood song "O Khaike Paan Banaras Wala '' might be remade.







In the 1940 Backdrop...



On the other hand, Prabhas has signed a project with "Sita Ramam" fame Hanu Raghavapudi. Rumors suggest that this movie is titled "Fauji." With "Spirit" requiring more time for pre-production, Prabhas has given the green light to "Fauji." Director Hanu Raghavapudi has started preparations to begin shooting this film in October.







"Fauji" is expected to be a period drama set in the 1940s, depicting the British era. Mrunal Thakur is likely to appear as the heroine opposite Prabhas. "Fauji" means soldier, so Prabhas is also expected to be portrayed as a soldier in this film. Prominent production house Mythri Movie Makers is ready to produce this film on a large budget, with Vishal Chandrashekhar set to provide the music. Official updates related to this movie are expected to arrive soon.

Trolls for That Poster!



Some netizens expressed their disappointment with the latest poster of 'Raja Saab,' comparing Prabhas holding a cigar to Bikshu Yadav from the movie 'Sai.' They criticized the film's team for choosing such a poster for a birthday release, claiming it inadvertently trolls Prabhas. Another netizen commented that Prabhas in the poster is giving tough competition to Venkatesh's look in 'Nagavalli.' Some even thought the VFX work in the motion video was so poor that it looked fan-made, stirring significant discussion on social media. Darling fans are responding robustly, suggesting that the trolls are merely unable to handle Prabhas' success.

In celebration of Prabhas’ birthday, Hotstar announced an interesting fact: the film trended for 250 consecutive days. Fans are overjoyed with Prabhas' continued dominance on OTT platforms as well. Directed as a high-voltage film, 'Salaar' is packed with action sequences fitting Prabhas' stature, featuring Shruti Hassan as the heroine.

"Prabhas’ ‘The Raja Saab’ Poster Sparks Controversy: Fans Divided Over the Latest Birthday Surprise!


Prabhas continues to reign as the king of the Indian box office, standing tall in collections where no other Indian star can reach. Whenever a Prabhas film is scheduled, other heroes tend not to release their films around the same time. They show interest in releasing their movies either a month before or after Prabhas’s release. Now, a Tamil star hero is gearing up to face off with Prabhas at the box office with his upcoming film, "The Raja Saab". Let’s delve into the details.



Prabhas vs Dhanush



After blockbusters like "Salaar" and "Kalki 2898 AD", Prabhas is returning with "The Raja Saab" directed by Maruthi, set to premiere on April 10, 2025. This marks Prabhas's first foray into horror-comedy, setting high expectations for "The Raja Saab". Meanwhile, Tamil star Dhanush is ready to take on Prabhas (Prabhas vs Dhanush) by releasing his latest film "Idli Kadai" on the same day, April 10 next year, as officially announced by the makers. This sets the stage for a major box office showdown.







Why That Particular Day?



Dhanush himself directs his film "Idli Kadai" (Idli Shop), starring Nithya Menen. Produced under the banners of Don Pictures and Wonder Bar Films by Akash Bhaskaran, the film features key roles by Prakash Raj and Shalini Pandey. Despite Prabhas's presence in the fray, Dhanush has strong reasons to release "Idli Kadai" on April 10. For Tamil audiences, April is significant just like Ugadi for Telugu people; Tamil New Year falls on April 14 next year, coinciding with a long weekend, making April 10 a strategic choice for release. There is no backing down from releasing both "The Raja Saab" and Dhanush's film on that day, and only time will tell who will come out on top.

A Potential Setback for Prabhas in Tamil Nadu!



Dhanush has a significant following not only in Tamil but also in Telugu and Hindi cinema. Although Prabhas has a broader market reach, "The Raja Saab" might not face much competition from "Idli Kadai" on a pan-India level. However, Dhanush enjoys a robust market in Tamil Nadu where fans adore him, potentially impacting "The Raja Saab"’s performance there significantly.







More Than a Half-Dozen Pan-India Projects!



Prabhas currently has over half a dozen pan-India projects in hand. Alongside "Raja Saab", he is set to work in "Spirit" with Sandeep Reddy Vanga, "Kalki 2" directed by Nag Ashwin, "Salaar 2" with Prashanth Neel, and "Fouji" with Hanu Raghavapudi. He is also slated for a special role in Manchu Vishnu’s dream project "Kannappa" and has shown interest in a new film with "Hanuman" fame Prashant Varma, whose story Prabhas liked. Moreover, there is buzz about upcoming projects with Tamil star director Lokesh Kanagaraj and Bollywood’s popular filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani. Prabhas is undoubtedly surging forward in his career with these continuous projects.

Pan India star Prabhas and director Sandeep Reddy Vanga are currently at the peak of their careers.

Recently, a video of Sandeep Reddy Vanga listening to a song composed by Harshavardhan went viral online.

Praise for 'The Raja Saab'



Bhushan Kumar also spoke about 'The Raja Saab', a film directed by Maruthi starring Prabhas. He said he has seen some scenes from 'The Raja Saab', and the visuals are stunning, reminiscent of Hollywood's 'Harry Potter'. These comments have also gone viral online. Prabhas is playing dual roles in 'The Raja Saab', and a recent poster related to Prabhas' old look has surprised everyone. The film is set to release worldwide on April 10, 2025.







First a Police Officer.. Then!



There has been ongoing speculation that Prabhas will be seen as a powerful police officer in Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s upcoming film 'Spirit'. However, recent rumors suggest that after several dramatic developments in the story, Prabhas' character will transform into a gangster. It is also said that the film will contain intense wild elements, surpassing the violence and fight sequences of 'Animal'. Expectations for 'Spirit' have thus increased even further.







With a Massive Budget...



'Spirit' is reportedly being produced by T-Series' Bhushan Kumar with a very large budget. There is talk that the movie has been allocated a budget of Rs. 1000 crores. Initially, the film was rumored to have a budget of Rs. 500 crores, which later increased to Rs. 750 crores, and now it reportedly stands at Rs. 1000 crores. If true, this would make 'Spirit' the biggest movie of Prabhas' career in terms of budget, with Rs. 600 crores allocated just for casting costs. Prabhas alone is rumored to be paid Rs. 300 crores, according to film industry sources.

Rebel Star Prabhas is currently on a roll in his career, setting up a lineup of pan-India projects in a way no other hero has managed to do.

With Tamil Director Lokesh Kanagaraj...



There's a strong buzz that Prabhas will collaborate with Tamil star director Lokesh Kanagaraj, known for blockbusters like 'Khaidi', 'Vikram', 'Master', and 'Leo'. The internet is rife with speculation about this upcoming project, which is expected to be a pan-India film produced by a leading Tollywood production banner. Currently, Lokesh Kanagaraj is directing 'Coolie' with Rajinikanth and will soon start 'Khaidi 2' with Karthi. It's likely that Prabhas's film with Lokesh will commence after these projects.







With Hindi Director Rajkumar Hirani...



Prabhas has expressed that working with Bollywood star director Rajkumar Hirani would be a dream project. This dream seems likely to come true soon, as buzz suggests that the Rajkumar Hirani-Prabhas project could start rolling soon. There are strong indications from Bollywood that an official announcement might come by the end of this year or early next year. Hirani, known for directing hits like 'Munna Bhai MBBS', '3 Idiots', 'PK', 'Sanju', and 'Dunki', has a dedicated fan base in Hindi cinema, and Prabhas's global fan following could mean that this combo might break all records.







With Kannada Director Prashanth Neel...



It is known that Prabhas will be working on another film with Kannada star director Prashanth Neel after the whirlwind success of their movie 'Salaar', which captivated audiences with its intense action scenes. Prashanth Neel has already announced a sequel, 'Salaar 2', and even provided a link to the second part at the end of the first movie.

Prabhas on Fire: New Pan-India Projects with Top Directors Across India – Hirani, Neel, Kanagaraj & More!


Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga has carved a unique niche in Indian cinema. Breaking away from clichéd scenes and formulaic screenplays, he introduced a fresh, innovative filmmaking style. His approach challenged the notion that audiences only appreciate traditional narratives, proving that new ideas are warmly embraced. Sandeep even surprised veteran filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma with his skills, earning high praise. While his on-screen work is widely recognized, his off-screen style also carries a distinct feature that many might overlook unless observed closely. Let’s explore this aspect.



Hero-Specific Makeovers



The sensational director has helmed three films so far, each leaving a significant impact. His debut film Arjun Reddy shook Tollywood and redefined storytelling. Later, he remade it in Hindi as Kabir Singh, achieving massive success. Last year, he delivered a box office tsunami with Animal. Interestingly, during the shoot of his films, Sandeep appears in styles that match his heroes’ looks. For Arjun Reddy, Vijay Deverakonda sported long hair and a thick beard, and Sandeep adopted the same look during the shoot. Similarly, for Animal, Ranbir Kapoor’s long hair and rugged beard were mirrored by Sandeep himself, a style he even carried to promotional events.

The Spirit Look



After Animal, Sandeep Reddy Vanga is gearing up for a big project with Rebel Star Prabhas titled Spirit. The shoot is almost confirmed to begin in December. Recently, Sandeep surprised everyone with a new look, sparking speculation that it might reflect Prabhas’ look in Spirit. Director Prasanth Varma shared pictures with Sandeep on social media, where he appeared clean-shaven with sharp moustaches and a stylish beard. Fans believe Prabhas might adopt a similar makeover for the film. Whether this prediction comes true will be revealed soon.

Three Different Looks for Prabhas



In Spirit, Prabhas is set to portray a powerful police officer. Based on Sandeep’s latest look, fans speculate this might influence Prabhas’ cop avatar. Additionally, there are rumors that Prabhas will showcase two other distinct looks in the film, reminiscent of Ranbir Kapoor’s transformation in Animal. The shoot is expected to officially launch in December, with regular filming starting in January 2025. Reports suggest Sandeep plans to complete the movie within six months. Fans eagerly await the film’s grand launch.







Romancing in Europe



Meanwhile, Pan-India star Prabhas is currently working on The Raja Saab, directed by Maruthi, slated for an April 10, 2025 release. Music for the film is being composed by S.S. Thaman, with six songs planned, including two duets shot abroad. These romantic tracks, featuring Prabhas and Malavika Mohanan, will reportedly be filmed in Europe.

The recent film 'Kalki 2898 AD', crafted by creative director Nag Ashwin and starring pan-India star Prabhas, features legendary actors Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, and Bollywood beauties Deepika Padukone and Disha Patani in major roles. This film has created a sensation at the box office, collecting over Rs. 1200 crores globally and setting new records. Recently, the makers have released this movie on OTT, bringing it to two platforms. Currently, on OTT, 'Kalki' is making new records and is trending as the second film globally. Let’s look into these details.



Trending on a Global Scale



The film 'Kalki 2898 AD' has been available on OTT since August 22. The Kalki movie in South Indian languages, including Telugu, is streaming on Amazon Prime, while the Hindi version is available on Netflix. However, the Hindi version of 'Kalki' is soaring with record views on Netflix. It secured second place in the global trending list in non-English categories over the past week. The Hindi version of Kalki has achieved 4.5 million minutes viewed, as disclosed by Netflix sources. It's being touted as the first Indian movie to achieve this feat in such a short time, indicating that 'Kalki' is also making waves globally on OTT.







Behind in Amazon



As known, the Kalki film is streaming in South Indian languages on Amazon. However, 'Kalki 2898 AD' starring Prabhas is facing strong competition from 'Raayan’, a film featuring Dhanush, which premiered on Amazon a day later on August 23. Despite this, 'Raayan' is trending at the top spot in India, pushing 'Kalki' to the second place on Amazon with more views. However, with many already having watched 'Kalki', 'Raayan' is gaining popularity on OTT.







'The Best of This Generation’…



Hero Siddharth has praised the 'Kalki' team. Recently posting about the film, he lauded Prabhas’s role as exceptional. "I really like Prabhas. His character Bhairava will always remain my favorite. His acting as Karnudu is wonderful. Nag Ashwin has done an excellent job. This is the best film of this generation. I can’t help but praise Nag Ashwin and Vyjayanthi Movies. The film made such collections because it’s truly a great cinema," said Siddharth. Furthermore, Vijay Deverakonda, Dulquer Salmaan, Rajamouli, and RGV made surprise cameo appearances in the Kalki film, delighting the audience.







Prabhas: The Biggest Star



Tamil star hero Vikram has praised hero Prabhas, who is making waves with pan-India films. Speaking in an interview about his latest film 'Thangalaan', Vikram elevated Prabhas, saying, “Prabhas is now the biggest superstar in India. It's not fair to just call him a Telugu hero.” Malavika, who also participated in the same interview, made intriguing remarks about Prabhas.

She was amazed at the admiration audiences have for his films. Malavika clarified that the film 'Raja Saab' is set to mesmerize audiences at a pan-India level.

Kalki 2898 AD On OTT: 'Kalki' Stirring Up a Storm on Netflix... A Record as the First Indian Film!


After gaining nationwide fame with the movie 'Animal', director Sandeep Reddy Vanga's unique directing skills have mesmerized everyone. Although his talent was already known to the Telugu audience from 'Arjun Reddy', it was 'Animal' that made it clear to the entire country. It is known that his next project is with Prabhas. Sandeep is currently busy with the pre-production work of 'Spirit'. A crazy update about this movie is making rounds online, and it is being touted as the biggest movie in Prabhas’ career. Let's look at the details.



With a massive budget...



There are high expectations nationwide for 'Spirit', directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga and starring Prabhas. Everyone is eagerly waiting for this film to start shooting. Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga is currently busy with pre-production. In the meantime, news about this movie is causing a stir online. The budget for this film is rumored to be around Rs. 1000 crores. Initially, the budget was said to be Rs. 500 crores, later reports suggested it increased to Rs. 750 crores. Now, the buzz is that it has reached Rs. 1000 crores.

Remunerations amount to Rs. 600 crores!



It is reported that out of the budget allocated for 'Spirit', Rs. 600 crores will be spent on remunerations alone. Film circles are buzzing that Prabhas, who will be playing a dual role, is set to receive about Rs. 300 crores. Given that he is taking on two roles, this remuneration is considered justifiable. Similarly, Bollywood stars Anil Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, and Kareena Kapoor are said to have special roles in the movie. With such star power, the film's budget necessarily includes a significant amount for remunerations. Additionally, Rs. 300 crores are allocated for movie making, Rs. 120-150 crores for graphics, and another Rs. 50-80 crores for promotions.







Mammootty in a special role!



There is strong buzz that a star hero will be acting in 'Spirit'. Malayalam superstar Mammootty is rumored to play a crucial role in the film, which is said to be vital to the story. An official announcement from the film unit is awaited. The movie is also rumored to feature Bollywood couple Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor in roles with negative shades, along with Korean and Chinese stars.







Police vs. Mafia Don!



There is strong buzz that Prabhas will perform dual roles in 'Spirit'. He is said to appear as a police officer in one role and as a mafia don in another, the latter having negative shades. If this is true, fans are anticipating a box office sensation. The film is expected to start shooting from January 25 next year. Previously, Prabhas has played dual roles in three films. His first was 'Billa', followed by dual roles in the 'Baahubali' series, and he is rumored to be doing the same in the upcoming 'Raja Saab'.

Everyone is eagerly waiting to see when this film will hit the sets. Currently busy with pre-production, director Sandeep Reddy Vanga is now part of a hot topic online. Rumors suggest that Bollywood’s senior actress Kareena Kapoor will be starring opposite Prabhas. Although Kareena Kapoor was a top Bollywood actress a decade ago and is currently active intermittently in films and web series, news of her returning to a major role alongside a star hero like Prabhas is stirring interest. Fans are already speculating about the chemistry between Prabhas and Kareena Kapoor. An official announcement from the Spirit unit is awaited.







Prabhas’ Villain, Again!



Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan has recently been the go-to villain in films. After playing Ravana in 'Adipurush' and an antagonist in 'Devara' against Tarak, he impressed everyone with his fierce portrayal in the recently released 'Devara' trailer. Another buzz about 'Spirit' indicates that Saif Ali Khan will also appear in a negative role in this film as well. He is expected to portray a powerful character opposing Prabhas. Interestingly, the rumored heroine Kareena Kapoor happens to be Saif Ali Khan’s wife, adding intrigue to the dynamics as the heroine’s husband will be seen as the villain. If true, this setup is expected to elevate the expectations from 'Spirit' to a new level.







Police vs. Mafia Don!



There is a strong buzz that Prabhas will perform dual roles in 'Spirit'. The script work is reportedly complete, and only the dialogues are left to finalize. According to the buzz, Prabhas will play both a police officer and a mafia don, with the don character having negative shades. If this turns out to be true, a blockbuster at the box office is assured. Additionally, a special poster is expected to be released on Prabhas' birthday on October 10, and the film is set to go on floors by January 25 next year. Prabhas has previously played dual roles in three films. His first dual role was in 'Billa', followed by 'Baahubali' and 'Baahubali 2'. Recently, there has been talk that Prabhas will also appear in dual roles in the upcoming 'Raja Saab'.







How Many Crores for Spirit's Budget?



Any film with Pan-India Rebel Star Prabhas is a guaranteed blockbuster at the box office, prompting producers to confidently invest in his projects. Producers are not shying away from allocating massive budgets for Prabhas’ films, which are often produced with hundreds of crores. In line with this, there is talk circulating online about the budget for Sandeep Reddy Vanga's directorial 'Spirit', produced in collaboration with Bollywood production house T-Series. This film is anticipated to have a budget of Rs. 500 crores, positioning it as one of the most expensive undertakings in Prabhas’ career. After 'Adipurush' with a budget of Rs. 700 crores and the recently released 'Kalki' at Rs. 600 crores, 'Spirit' is set to be the third most expensive film in his career.






Prabhas 'Spirit': Bollywood Power Couple Rumored as Heroine and Villain in High-Stakes Action Thriller


In Tollywood, Rebel Star Prabhas is one of the heroes known for his generous heart. He has proven himself to be a hero not just on reel but in real life too, offering support to those in distress on numerous occasions. This is why people admire Prabhas irrespective of his movie outcomes, often saluting his kind nature. Recently, Prabhas has once again demonstrated his goodwill by announcing significant financial aid to the victims of the Kerala floods, enhancing his reputation further.



Donation of Rs. 2 Crores



In Wayanad district of Kerala, landslides caused by heavy rains have resulted in the loss of hundreds of lives, leaving thousands homeless. In response to this disaster, Prabhas has announced a substantial donation. His team has declared a contribution of Rs. 2 crores to the Kerala Chief Minister's Relief Fund, a gesture that has been warmly received by his fans and movie lovers alike. As the first Tollywood star to announce such a large sum, Prabhas is receiving high praise. Fans and well-wishers continue to post about his heroism in real life as well as on screen.

On the educational front, Prabhas annually sponsors the education of a hundred students, covering their school fees, a fact revealed by his close associates. This news is also going viral, with fans appreciating that Prabhas, recognizing education as the greatest gift, has been silently contributing without seeking publicity.

Generous Donation to Directors



In May this year, on 'Directors' Day,' Prabhas showcased his generous spirit by donating Rs. 35 lakhs for the celebration, as disclosed by the members of the directors' association. Directors' Day is celebrated every year on May 4th, marking the birthday of legendary director Dasari Narayana Rao. This year, the event was held at the LB Stadium, and members of the directors' association visited Prabhas's house to invite him. On this occasion, Prabhas donated money to ensure the event was conducted successfully, earning him widespread acclaim.







Prabhas in Full Swing



Prabhas currently has more Pan-India films in his kitty than any other star in the country. He is rapidly shooting the film 'Raja Saab,' directed by Maruthi. He is also set to work with Sandeep Reddy Vanga on a project titled 'Spirit.' Besides these, there is a sequel to 'Salaar' in the works, directed by Prashanth Neel, expected to start this year. Additionally, Prabhas is set to portray Lord Shiva in the upcoming film 'Kannappa' starring Manchu Vishnu and will also be working with director Hanu Raghavapudi on another project. Completing all these films will likely take at least two years.






Prabhas: Not Just in Movies, Prabhas is a Real-Life Hero Too


When you think of Prabhas, his physique is what immediately comes to mind for everyone. His stature has greatly aided his rise as a Pan-India star. When Prabhas performs an action sequence, it feels real to the audience. Not just action, his stature fits well even for mythological characters. Prabhas has already appeared as Lord Rama in 'Adipurush,' as Karna in 'Kalki 2898 AD,' and there's talk that he will be seen as Nandi in the upcoming 'Kannappa.' Amidst this, there’s exciting news related to Prabhas that he will also be portraying Parashurama soon. Let's dive into the details now.



Prabhas as Parashurama!



It’s known that a movie titled 'Ramayana' is currently being filmed in Bollywood, with Ranbir Kapoor playing Rama and Sai Pallavi as Sita. The director, Nitesh Tiwari, wants to make the wedding scene of Sita and Rama a visual feast. In this context, the character of Parashurama is crucial, being the avatar that precedes Rama in the dashavatara (ten incarnations) of Vishnu. Nitesh thinks it fitting that a star of equal stature to Ranbir, who is playing Rama, should portray Parashurama. Hence, he is considering Prabhas for this role. There’s buzz in B-Town that Prabhas has been approached for this. Bollywood circles suggest that Prabhas has agreed to the role, with an official announcement expected soon. However, his role in the film is said to be brief but impactful.







Star Couples as Villains



Prabhas is set to work on a film directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga (of 'Animal' fame), titled 'Spirit.' The script phase is already underway. Recently, there have been substantial reports that Kareena Kapoor will be acting in this film and that Saif Ali Khan will play a villain. The latest buzz is that Kareena Kapoor will also portray a character with negative shades in 'Spirit.' Real-life couple Kareena and Saif are rumored to be playing villains in this film, which awaits further confirmation.







Police vs Mafia Don!



'Spirit' is rumored to feature Prabhas in a dual role, stirring strong buzz. The script work is said to be complete, with only the dialogues left to be finalized. If rumors are to be believed, Prabhas will be seen as a police officer in one role and as a mafia don in another, with the latter having negative shades. Fans are confident that if this turns out to be true, it will be a blockbuster at the box office. In celebration of Prabhas’s birthday on October 10, a special poster is expected to be released, with 'Spirit' set to go on floors by January 25 of the next year. Meanwhile, Prabhas has previously done dual roles in movies like 'Billa,' 'Baahubali,' and 'Baahubali 2,' and is rumored to be doing the same in the upcoming 'Raja Saab.'







Periodical Love Story!



Prabhas and Hanu Raghavapudi are known to be teaming up for a film. Recently, a puja ceremony was held concerning this movie, which is rumored to be a period action love drama. Set against the backdrop of the Razakars era, during the time of Hyderabad's accession to India, director Hanu Raghavapudi has reportedly crafted a beautiful love story. The film, tentatively titled 'Fauji' (meaning soldier), will reportedly feature Prabhas as an Indian paramilitary soldier. Iman Ismail is set to star as the heroine and has already participated in the recent puja events, capturing attention on social media with her looks.






Prabhas to Play Parashurama in Upcoming Mythological Epic 'Ramayana'?


Following the blockbuster success of 'Kalki 2898 AD', Prabhas' popularity has reached new heights. There is growing anticipation nationwide for his upcoming projects. Prabhas is currently collaborating with director Maruthi on a film titled 'Raja Saab' and is also expected to appear in the sequel to 'Kalki', directed by Nag Ashwin. Additionally, renowned directors Prashanth Neel and Sandeep Reddy Vanga are lined up for future collaborations with him. It was widely expected that Sandeep Reddy Vanga's project would be Prabhas' next film to start production. However, recent buzz in Tollywood indicates that Prabhas may greenlight a different film instead. Let’s explore the details.



Director Preference!



Fans and others were expecting Prabhas to collaborate with Sandeep Reddy Vanga after the success of 'Kalki 2898 AD'. However, it appears that director Hanu Raghavapudi, known for 'Sita Ramam', has stepped in instead. Prabhas had previously committed to a project with Hanu Raghavapudi, now reportedly titled 'Fauji'. Given the extensive pre-production required for 'Spirit', Prabhas has opted to proceed with 'Fauji', sparking significant buzz in the industry. Director Hanu Raghavapudi is making preparations to begin shooting in October.







Prabhas as a Soldier!



The upcoming film 'Fauji' with Hanu Raghavapudi is set to be a period drama, unfolding against a 1940s British era backdrop. Mrunal Thakur is likely to appear as the heroine opposite Prabhas. 'Fauji' meaning soldier, Prabhas is expected to portray a military officer, stirring significant excitement among fans. The film is set to be produced on a grand scale by Mythri Movie Makers, with Vishal Chandrashekhar providing the music. Official updates related to this movie are expected soon.







Raja Saab's Big Plan!



Prabhas is collaborating with director Maruthi on the upcoming film 'Raja Saab'. An exciting development has recently emerged regarding the movie. Director Maruthi is considering remixing a classic hit song for the film, which interestingly is not a Telugu song but a superhit Hindi song from the 1980s. The music director, Thaman, is currently in discussions with the filmmakers, who are considering three songs, with one expected to be finalized soon. The iconic Bollywood song 'O Khaike Paan Banaras Wala' might be remade, generating significant buzz in cinema circles.







I'll Show My Best Work



Sandeep Reddy Vanga, known for his bold and daring directing style, is currently immersed in pre-production for 'Spirit'. With Prabhas confirmed in the lead role, casting for other parts is still underway. Recently, Sandeep shared insights about what to expect from 'Spirit', sparking significant interest online. He stated, "Some say 'Animal' is my best work. You'll see my best in 'Spirit'," raising anticipation among fans. Many are already predicting that 'Spirit' will eclipse the success of Sandeep's previous hits like 'Arjun Reddy', 'Kabir Singh', and 'Animal'. Social media is abuzz with predictions of another blockbuster for Prabhas, potentially earning up to Rs. 1000 crores.







Prabhas as a Powerful Police Officer



Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga has plans to uniquely craft 'Spirit', not focusing on affluent family dramas like in 'Arjun Reddy' or 'Animal', but setting it against a middle-class backdrop. Past comments by Sandeep suggest that Prabhas will play a powerful police officer, an avatar never seen before. His characterization and mannerisms are expected to bring something fresh to the screen. The script for 'Spirit' is nearing its final stages, with filming likely to commence around October or November, as buzzed in film circles.






Prabhas New Movie: Exciting Update... Another Film Replaces 'Spirit'!


The film 'Kalki 2898 AD', featuring Rebel Star Prabhas and director Nag Ashwin, has shaken the box office, garnering over ₹1100 crores globally. Since its release on June 27, this mythological science fiction movie has been breaking numerous records at the box office and continues to dominate theaters even after 50 days. Many are eagerly anticipating when 'Kalki' will be available on OTT. A recent update related to its streaming has come out, exciting the fans of Prabhas immensely.



Is the OTT Date for Kalki Locked?



It appears that Amazon Prime has secured the digital streaming rights for 'Kalki 2898 AD'. There is strong buzz that the film will be brought to streaming on August 23. However, it is rumored that the film will be slightly trimmed compared to the theatrical version, with about 6 minutes of footage potentially being cut. Official announcements regarding the OTT release and the runtime are expected soon. However, Prabhas' fans are expressing dissatisfaction with the decision to trim the runtime, questioning why scenes that were not in the theatrical version aren't being added instead.



Prabhas Pushes Shah Rukh Back



In 2024, 'Kalki 2898 AD' stood out as the biggest hit among all the releases so far, continuously setting new records and garnering immense popularity. It has reportedly collected over ₹760 crores across all languages nationwide, surpassing the all-time Indian collection record of Shah Rukh Khan's movie 'Jawan', which had collections amounting to ₹760 crores. Prior to 'Kalki', 'Jawan' held the fourth position in the list of highest-grossing Indian films. As per the latest collections, 'Kalki 2898 AD' now ranks as the fourth highest-grossing Indian film, following 'Baahubali 2', 'KGF 2', and 'RRR' in the top three spots.



Looks Like No Kalki 2 Anytime Soon!



With the blockbuster success of 'Kalki 2898 AD', anticipation is high for a sequel. Producer Ashwani Dutt previously hinted that 'Kalki 2' could be released around June or July next year, with 60% of the shooting already completed. However, recent buzz suggests that the remaining shooting might face delays due to Deepika Padukone, who is currently pregnant and due in September. Post-delivery, she plans to take at least a year's break from films, having already stepped back from a much-loved project by Rohit Shetty and a major Bollywood show. This indicates that Deepika might also be unavailable for 'Kalki 2's' shooting, potentially pushing its release to 2026 if this scenario unfolds.



Prabhas in Full Swing!



Currently, Prabhas has more pan-India films in his pipeline than any other star in the country. Any project with Prabhas isn't expected to start before 2026. Currently, he is working on 'Raja Saab' under the direction of Maruthi, which is progressing rapidly. He is also set to collaborate with Sandeep Reddy Vanga for a movie titled 'Spirit', and a sequel to 'Salaar' directed by Prashanth Neel is in the works post 'NTR 31'. Prabhas is also set to portray Lord Shiva in 'Kannappa' starring Manchu Vishnu, and has another project lined up with Hanu Raghavapudi. All these projects are likely to take at least two years to complete.


From Screen to Stream: 'Kalki 2898 AD' Sets Sights on OTT Debut


When it comes to the best on-screen pair in Tollywood, Prabhas and Anushka often top the list. Their chemistry has garnered a dedicated fan base, with fans frequently posting on social media wishing for them to get married. Though such rumors circulated for some time, they were eventually dismissed as unfounded. Currently, Prabhas is busy with Raja Saab while Anushka, also known as “Sweety,” is occupied with her film Ghaati. Recently, special posters were released on Prabhas’ birthday for Raja Saab and on Anushka’s birthday for Ghaati, sparking online discussions as fans noticed striking similarities between the two posters.



With a Cigar in Hand…



In Ghaati, where Anushka plays the female lead, she is shown in a rugged, intense look with blood on her face, smoking a cigar, surrounded by smoke. Interestingly, Prabhas’ recent Raja Saab poster also depicted him in a similar getup, holding a cigar in his mouth with a smoky effect. Fans have taken to social media, placing both posters side by side and tagging them as “King and Queen,” calling for a new film featuring the two together.

A Fierce Anushka



On Thursday morning, the makers of Ghaati released the first look of Anushka’s character, followed by a solid teaser in the evening. Unlike her previous films, Anushka appears more violent and intense, shown mercilessly decapitating someone while looking in a bus mirror. In the teaser, she is seen calmly smoking a cigar with blood-covered hands after the brutal act. This powerful role brings back memories of her impactful performances in films like Vedam and Arundhati, where she showcased her ability to take on strong, intense roles.

All Hopes Pinned on Ghaati



Anushka, once a leading star in the industry, is currently facing challenges in her career, with fewer opportunities alongside major stars. Although her recent film Miss Shetty Mr. Polishetty received positive feedback, it didn’t achieve the kind of success fans expected for her. Therefore, Ghaati is a crucial project for Anushka as she aims to re-establish her position in the industry. Similarly, Ghaati’s director Krish is also relying on this project for a comeback after the shelving of Hari Hara Veera Mallu.







Prabhas’ Upcoming Projects



Prabhas currently has a packed lineup of pan-India projects. Along with Raja Saab, he is working with Sandeep Reddy Vanga on Spirit, Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2, Prashanth Neel’s Salaar 2, and Hanu Raghavapudi’s Fauji. He also has a special role in Manchu Vishnu’s ambitious project Kannappa. Recently, Prasanth Varma, known for HanuMan, reportedly narrated a story to Prabhas that he was highly interested in. Furthermore, discussions are ongoing for projects with Tamil director Lokesh Kanagaraj and Bollywood’s Rajkumar Hirani. With these diverse ventures, Prabhas’ career is on an unstoppable rise.






Prabhas: Prabhas-Anushka Pair Back in the Spotlight… Why?


Pan-India star Prabhas is making rapid strides with a series of films. With back-to-back hits, he stands unmatched in stature among national cinema stars. Having recently hit the ₹1200 crore mark with his project 'Kalki', Prabhas has once again proven his box office prowess. Moreover, he's on a roll announcing consecutive pan-India projects. Following a strategy once employed by superstar Krishna, he's fully focused on his films. Prabhas is set to keep his promise to fans by launching three films at once. Let's explore more about this in this special report.



Prabhas' Promise!



Prabhas has become synonymous with pan-India films. Every film he takes on escalates to a national project. Until 'Adipurush' (2023), Prabhas would spend at least two years on each film, a pattern that began with 'Baahubali' in 2015. There was a two-year gap between 'Baahubali' and 'Baahubali 2', and a three-year interval between 'Saaho' (2019) and 'Radhe Shyam' (2022), which initially disappointed fans. Frustrations grew over the gaps between his films. Understanding his fans' disappointment, Prabhas promised to release at least one film per year going forward. Keeping his word, he's been vigorously announcing new projects.







Superstar Krishna’s Strategy!



Prabhas is much more focused on his projects than before, ditching the consecutive project routine to adopt a strategy used by superstar Krishna, who used to work on three or more films simultaneously. Prabhas is now preparing to bring three projects to the sets simultaneously, following in Krishna's footsteps. Indeed, during 'Salaar', he also engaged in shooting 'Kalki 2898 AD', releasing both within a span of six months. Currently, Prabhas is working on 'Raja Saab' directed by Maruthi. He has also recently launched a new project with Hanu Raghavapudi and is planning to start 'Spirit' directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga by November. Prabhas is planning to participate in the shootings of these three films simultaneously and release each within a year. Additionally, there's potential to launch 'Salaar 2' and 'Kalki 2' next year.







India’s No.1 Hero: Prabhas



A recent July report by Bollywood media firm Ormax listed the most popular heroes, with Prabhas securing the number one position. Following Prabhas, Tamil star Vijay and Bollywood's Shah Rukh Khan filled the next top spots, with superstar Mahesh Babu and Junior NTR also featuring prominently. Prabhas has consistently topped these lists since May and June, much to the delight of fans and movie enthusiasts. Comments are flooding the internet celebrating Prabhas' ascension as the number one star, surpassing other Bollywood heroes.






Prabhas New Projects: Prabhas Keeps His Promise with Three Films Simultaneously on the Sets!


In Tollywood, reaching ₹100 crore in collections was once not a common feat. If a film crossed ₹100 crore during its lifetime, it was considered a significant achievement. However, the scenario has drastically changed in recent times. Director SS Rajamouli has elevated Tollywood to a global scale, making it common for our heroes to easily rake in ₹100 crores on the opening day alone. Recently, NTR also smashed records by grossing ₹172 crores on the first day alongside the godly figures. Several star heroes and directors from Tollywood have carved their own unique markets and can effortlessly claim these numbers with a solid hit. Let's take a look at these special figures.



Market Over ₹1000 Crores!



Director SS Rajamouli creates a global buzz with every film. His direction in 'Baahubali 2' (₹1810 crores) and 'RRR' (₹1300 crores) brought in over ₹1000 crores each. He is currently directing 'SSMB 29' with Mahesh Babu, which is expected to hit a global stride and is projected to gross around ₹2000 crores. On the other hand, pan-India star Prabhas has created a unique market for himself regardless of directors. His recent film 'Kalki 2898 AD' grossed over ₹1200 crores. With big projects like 'Kalki 2', 'Salaar 2', 'Spirit', and 'Raja Saab' in his pipeline, these films are poised to reach over ₹1000 crores.







Market Between ₹700-1000 Crores



Currently, Tollywood boasts five individuals who have a market capacity of from ₹700 Crores to  ₹1000 crores. Among the heroes, Mahesh Babu and Allu Arjun easily fit this bill. Allu Arjun is set to release 'Pushpa 2' on December 6, and with the national buzz it's generating, it could easily make between ₹700-1000 crores if it becomes a hit. Mahesh Babu is set to drastically raise his market with an upcoming film directed by Rajamouli. Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who is planning his next film with Prabhas, is expected to touch the ₹1000 crore mark, as per industry analysts. Prashanth Neel’s upcoming projects with NTR ('NTR31') and Prabhas ('Salaar 2') also place him in this high market bracket.







Market Between ₹500-700 Crores



In this market range, three Tollywood heroes stand out. NTR, Ram Charan, and Pawan Kalyan can easily achieve this with a proper hit. Notably, Tarak has already shown the potential to easily join the ₹500 crore club with his recent success with Devara. Ram Charan, collaborating with director Shankar on 'Game Changer', is expected to release around Christmas, and success here could similarly elevate him to the ₹500 crore club. Pawan Kalyan has yet to venture into pan-India films, but his upcoming projects 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' and 'OG' are set at this level. There's significant anticipation for 'OG' among fans.







Market Between ₹200-500 Crores



From Tollywood, megastar Chiranjeevi and Balakrishna are likely contenders for this category. At 69, Chiranjeevi's star power remains undiminished. His upcoming movie 'Vishwambhara' is highly anticipated and could easily make ₹200-500 crores if successful. Balakrishna’s last three films have each crossed ₹100 crores. His next, 'NBK109' directed by Bobby, features Bollywood actor Bobby Deol as the antagonist. A successful clash between them could easily surpass ₹200 crores. Meanwhile, script magician Trivikram, despite mixed reviews for his last film 'Gunturu Karam', managed ₹250 crores. His next film is rumored to be with Allu Arjun, which could potentially rake in ₹500 crores if successful. Director Koratala Siva has also increased his market value with the film 'Devara', projecting his future films to start above the ₹200 crore mark.






Rajamouli, Prabhas, NTR, and Bunny: Tollywood's Box Office Titans Dominating the ₹1000 Crore Club


Global star Prabhas is currently at the peak of his career. His recent films, 'Salaar: Part 1 - Ceasefire' and 'Kalki 2898 AD', have been major box office successes, reinforcing his status as a top actor. Since the release of 'Baahubali 2', there has been a noticeable increase in the momentum of his films, with annual releases now a consistent part of his strategy. Last year, he starred in two films, and this year he has already introduced audiences to 'Kalki'. Next year, he is scheduled to appear in three films. Let’s delve into more details about these upcoming projects.



Three upcoming films in the pipeline!



After 'Baahubali' and 'Baahubali 2', Prabhas's appeal has skyrocketed, elevating him from a regional Tollywood star to a global icon. He is not only maintaining this status but is also enhancing it with each new film. Currently, Prabhas has five major projects lined up. He is working on 'Raja Saab' with director Maruthi, 'Spirit' with Sandeep Reddy Vanga, 'Kalki 2' with Nag Ashwin, and 'Salaar 2' with Prashanth Neel, along with a new film with Hanu Raghavapudi. The first three films are set to release in 2025, with 'Raja Saab' already scheduled for an April 10, 2025 release. Producer Ashwini Dutt recently mentioned in an interview that the shooting for 'Kalki 2' is partially completed and hinted at a potential release around June next year. Sandeep Reddy Vanga's 'Spirit' is expected to start production soon, with plans to release by the end of next year. Given these developments, it is confirmed that Prabhas will have three releases in 2025, as per Tollywood buzz.







Prabhas's consistent performance!



Prabhas is embracing the maxim "Strike while the iron is hot," actively producing films to enhance his popularity and fanbase at the peak of his career. He has been rapidly completing projects, offering double the entertainment to his fans. In 2023, he presented 'Adipurush' and 'Salaar' to his audience. This year, he has already entertained his fans with 'Kalki', and he is poised to appear in a cameo in 'Kannappa' this December. Looking ahead, he has three films lined up for 2025, and he is gearing up for 'Salaar 2' and a new project with Hanu Raghavapudi for 2026. While other leading actors like Tarak, Allu Arjun, and Ram Charan are planning their releases with more time in between, Prabhas is swiftly producing movies, especially pan-India films, which is astonishing to everyone in the industry.







Prabhas races to lead!



The makers have officially announced that Prabhas's upcoming film 'Raja Saab' will be a summer treat in 2025, releasing globally in five languages (Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Hindi) on April 10. However, many major films have already entered the 2025 summer race. Naga Chaitanya's 'Thandel' and a multistarrer featuring Nagarjuna and Dhanush titled 'Kubera' are planned for next summer. Additionally, 'Toxic' starring Yash of 'KGF' fame and 'Sikandar' featuring Salman Khan are also targeting the summer of 2025. With Prabhas's film date locked, it's intriguing to see if these films will stick to their summer release plans or if they will adjust their schedules.






Prabhas Future Projects: Prabhas going strong in 2025 with three confirmed movies!


Mega Power Star Ram Charan has risen to global stardom following the success of 'RRR', garnering a worldwide fan following. However, an ongoing issue from the beginning of his career has been haunting him, which he hasn't been able to resolve despite multiple attempts. This has left even the mega fans dissatisfied. Now, Ram Charan is devising new plans to tackle this problem and is known to have made a crucial decision in this direction, which has immensely pleased the mega fans. What is this issue? And what decision has Cherry taken regarding it? Let's find out in this story.



Two Films on the Sets!



It has been 17 years since Mega Power Star Ram Charan, son of Chiranjeevi, stepped into the industry, but he has only done 13 films so far. There has been criticism that Charan takes longer gaps between films compared to other stars, and his attempts to change this pattern have not worked out. Hence, he has decided to put a definitive check on this issue. He plans to make two films per year going forward. As part of this, even before the release of 'Game Changer', Charan has announced the RC16 project with director Buchi Babu. The movie is currently busy in pre-production. Along with this film, he is also planning to do another movie directed by Sukumar. Ram Charan aims to launch both projects simultaneously and aims to release them before 2026, much to the delight of the mega fans.







Is He Following Prabhas?



Like Prabhas, who has recently been more dynamic with his projects than before, opting to launch multiple projects simultaneously rather than one at a time, Ram Charan seems to be following in his footsteps. Prabhas is currently working with director Maruthi on a film titled 'Raja Saab' and has also recently launched a new project with Hanu Raghavapudi. By November, he plans to bring 'Spirit' directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga to the sets. Through this approach, he intends to participate in the shootings of these three films simultaneously and release each within a year. Additionally, there's a chance for 'Salaar 2' and 'Kalki 2' to hit the floors next year.







Ram Charan as the Chief Guest



Global star Ram Charan is set to attend the South Indian cinema festival 'IIFA Utsavam 2024'. The event will take place at the Etihad Arena on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi on September 27. The organizers of the International Indian Film Academy Awards have revealed that Ram Charan will be participating in this awards ceremony. Alongside Charan, several other prominent figures from South Indian cinema are expected to attend.







Looks Unlikely This Year!



Ram Charan is currently acting in the film 'Game Changer', directed by Shankar, which was heavily promoted to release as a Christmas gift on December 20th. Producer Dil Raju has also confirmed plans for a December release. However, the latest buzz suggests that releasing 'Game Changer' in December might be difficult due to already scheduled releases of 'Thandel' and 'Robin Hood' for December 20. Releasing during this time could potentially affect collections, and makers are considering pushing the release to early next year. A confirmation from the makers is awaited on this matter.






How was the movie?
