Star hero to pen story for Prabhas’ next big project?

Prabhas is set to collaborate with actor-director Rishab Shetty for an exciting new project. This venture will be produced by Hombale Films, the banner behind blockbusters like KGF and Kantara.

Hombale Films sought a unique and star-worthy script for Prabhas and turned to Rishab Shetty for his creative input. While Rishab will write the story, he won’t direct the film. Reports suggest that he has already pitched a few ideas to the production team, and Prabhas is enthusiastic about playing a larger-than-life role that offers something new and challenging.

Rishab Shetty shares a strong bond with Hombale Films, especially after the massive success of Kantara. The sequel to Kantara, which is being developed with a budget exceeding ₹100 crores, aims to capture a global audience. With his storytelling expertise, Rishab is expected to craft a gripping narrative for Prabhas that could resonate with viewers worldwide.

Prabhas, who has portrayed a wide range of roles, from a warrior in Baahubali to a supercop in Saaho and a bounty hunter in the sci-fi film Kalki 2898, continues to push boundaries. Fans are eager to see him in this new collaboration, which promises to showcase yet another facet of his versatility.

In the meantime, Prabhas is busy with other projects including the action film Fauji, the horror-comedy The Raja Saab and Salaar 2 directed by Prashanth Neel. With each film, Prabhas continues to deliver fresh and engaging performances, keeping audiences excited for what’s next.
