Prabhas On Movies Like Baahubali ( Photo Credit – Instagram; Facebook )

SS Rajamouli’s Baahubali movies changed Prabhas’ life forever. The first film was released in 2015 and became a huge blockbuster. The sequel in 2017 turned out to be a monstrous hit, too. For both these movies, the actor gave five years. The actor didn’t do any other film while working on them.

After Baahubali, Prabhas appeared in several movies, but not all of them left a good impression. In 2023, the South superstar starred in Prashanth Neel’s Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire. It was one of the most expensive movies of 2023. This year, the actor will appear in Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 Ad, another massive and costly project. While Salaar has now become a franchise with a sequel being planned, Ashwin recently said in an interview that if his first film does well, he will turn Kalki into a franchise.
