DYK Prabhas was initial choice for THIS Siddharth’s blockbuster film?
Prabhas is currently one of the busiest actors in the Indian film industry, working on major projects that are eagerly awaited by fans.
Prabhas made his debut in Telugu cinema with the film Eshwar in 2002. Though his initial performances were well received, it was his breakthrough film, Varsham (2004), that established him as a star. With his striking looks and charismatic dialogue delivery, Prabhas won the hearts of many viewers. Despite initially training as a film editor, Prabhas quickly transitioned into acting, and today, he is one of India’s biggest actors.
While Prabhas has had numerous hits throughout his career, one of the most significant missed opportunities was his decision to turn down the 2005 film Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana. The film, which was initially offered to Prabhas, went on to become a major hit when it was given to Siddharth. Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana was a key film for Siddharth, propelling him to stardom, while Prabhas went on to achieve great success with his later films like Chhatrapathi (2005), Baahubali: The Beginning (2015) and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017).
Over the years, Prabhas has acted in several iconic films that have shaped his career. Some notable titles include Bujjigadu, Mr. Perfect, Mirchi, and of course, the Baahubali franchise. His most recent projects, including Saho (2019) and Salaar (2023), continue to build his reputation as a leading figure in Indian cinema.
What’s Next for Prabhas?
Looking ahead, Prabhas has multiple exciting projects lined up. The most anticipated is Spirit, directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, which is set for a 2027 release. Fans are also excited for the upcoming films Rajasab and Fauji, which are expected to be major releases.
Prabhas’ journey is an inspiring one, marked by numerous hits and the occasional missed opportunity that has ultimately paved the way for even bigger successes.
