How Prabhas surprised Nani on his 30th birthday?
In an exclusive interview with Pinkvilla, Nani shared a memorable story about his 30th birthday, which turned out to be a delightful surprise, thanks to his friend and colleague Prabhas. Despite the challenges of having two films, Aaha Kalyanam and Paisa, fail at the box office, Nani’s birthday was made special by Prabhas’s thoughtful gesture.
Nani recalled, “Meeting Prabhas on that day was a surprise thing for me. He came to wish me at my office, and it was a fun night. It was my 30th birthday, and two of my films had been released recently. One being Aaha Kalyanam and the other, Paisa. Both films weren’t doing well.”
Despite feeling down, Nani added, “That year, I didn’t want any birthday or catching up. However suddenly everyone including Prabhas, turned up and made my day. Suddenly, I was also in a good mood. I had been stressing out till then, especially when both my films released in a short gap and both weren’t doing good.”
Looking ahead, Nani is gearing up for the release of HIT: The Third Case, an action thriller where he plays the role of Arjun Sarkaar, a tough police officer tasked with capturing a gang of serial killers. The film is set to release on May 1, 2025, and promises to be an intense watch for fans.
Additionally, Nani has another project lined up titled The Paradise, directed by Srikanth Odela, following HIT 3’s release. He also hinted at future collaborations, including with director Sujeeth and possibly Karthik Subbaraj.
When asked about the possibility of producing a film with Prabhas in the lead, Nani expressed hope but clarified, “I don’t know if it will happen, but I hope it does in the future.”
In the meantime, Nani continues to focus on his career, taking on diverse roles and working on films that promise exciting new challenges.
