Don't want to break out of 'Baahubali' image: Prabhas
Hyderabad
October 5, 2017
Prabhas, who became popular as the star of the "Baahubali"
film franchise, says he doesn't mind living under its shadow.
"I don't
want to break out of the image. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that I
got and I want to keep it all my life," Prabhas told IANS here.
Prabhas
attained fame as Amarendra Baahubali and Mahendra Baahubali from the "Baahubali"
universe -- which went on to become India's biggest blockbuster with worldwide
earnings of over Rs 900 crore.
The film's story is about the battle for
the ownership of an ancient kingdom between two brothers. The story is woven
together in two parts with dance, music, emotion and drama.
"It is an
amazing thing that happened... Sometimes I wonder 'Am I the main lead of
'Baahubali....'," he said.
It also features Anushka Shetty, Ramya
Krishnan, Tamannaah Bhatia and Sathyaraj.
The first part "Baahubali: The
Beginning" came out in 2015 and the second "Baahubali 2: The Conclusion" was
released earlier this year. The film will have its TV premiere on Sony MAX on
Sunday.
Talking about the fame he got after the film's success, Prabhas
said: "People recognise me from all over the country which we didn't expect. We
thought that the film might work but not like this... Now, people recognise me
from Telugu to suddenly all over the country... It is very beautiful."
On the film front, Prabhas is busy with "Saaho", which will mark Shraddha
Kapoor's Telugu film debut. The film is being shot simultaneously in Hindi,
Tamil and Telugu.
