The couple however consistently disputed the claims insisting that they get along well as friends. In fact Anushka Shetty stated in a recent interview that they are the same kind of people who don't conceal their emotions so if they were dating it would have been known by now. 

Anushka was asked what three qualities about Prabhas she finds endearing when Baahubali was first released. According to her, 'His devotion to his friends. He is a person who favours development. He thinks deeply and develops as a person. His greatest obstacle is himself which helps him to comprehend and develop in that way.

Career

Prabhas’s Career

Prabhas began his film career in 2002 with Eeswar. He was the lead in Raghavendra in 2003. 

Prabha’s first two films didn't do well at the box office or establish him as a credible actor. Finally he appeared in the film Varsham in 2004. That served as his big break because the Telugu market considered it to be a commercial smash. Additionally it was his most lucrative film in a while. He became a well-known star in the Telugu industry as a result of the film. After that he appeared in a number of other films some of which were mediocre hits. 

Later in 2007 he appeared in the action-drama Pournami Yogi and Munna followed by the action-comedy Bujjigadu in 2008. Billa and Ek Niranjan were his two films in 2009. Billa was described as stylish and visually rich by Indiaglitz.

In 2010 he starred in the romantic comedy Darling. The film received positive reviews upon its initial release. The Times of India gave it two and a half stars explaining that 'Director Karunakaran extracts good performances from his actors but is unable to come up with a fresh plot.' 

It appears that the director hasn't fully recovered from his Tholi Prema hangover as he serves up yet another one-sided love saga but fails to provide a valid and logical reason for making a Gen Z lad suppress his feelings for his lover until the very end. However he makes up for it by including a lot of fun moments in the film and the screenplay does have some touching moments.'

 

Prabhas starred in Raghava Lawrence's action movie Rebel in 2012. Mirchi was his following movie. He provided the voiceover for a brief cameo in the movie Denikaina Ready. 'The film belongs to hard-core Prabhas fans as the movie is stylish and visually rich but not much in content ' Sashidhar from The Times of India said. As NDTV's Purnima Ranawat put it 'Rebel serves up fare for the mass market. Prabhas' fans will undoubtedly enjoy the movie. Watch it for Prabhas' action prowess and Tamannaah Bhatia's dancing talent. 

Using hardly any plot director Raghava Lawrence created a difficult-to-watch film. In 2015 he starred as Mahendra Baahubali and Amarendra Baahubali in S.S. Rajamouli's epic Baahubali: The Beginning which went on to become the fourth-highest-grossing Indian film of all time.

 Prabhas reprised his role in the sequel Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017) increasing his weight to 105 kg for the character of Baahubali. The film became the first Indian film ever to gross more than 1 000 crores (US$155 million) in all languages in just ten days and it is currently the second highest-grossing Indian film of all time. For his performance in The Conclusion Prabhas received the SIIMA Award for Best Actor (Telugu).

 

With a sizable fan base in Telugu Tamil and Hindi Prabhas has become a pan-Indian actor thanks to the success of Baahubali. Saaho an action thriller directed by Sujeeth starred Prabhas in 2019. Despite receiving negative reviews the movie still made over 433 crores. Later in 2022 Radha Krishna Kumar's period romance film Radhe Shyam in which Prabhas starred was met with mixed reviews. 

There was a lot of anticipation for the film Adipurush. He starred alongside Kriti Sanon and Saif Ali Khan. However, the film ended up being met with negative reviews and did not perform well, though it was one of the most expensive Indian films made. His next film, Salaar saw a much better reception.

Best Movies

Baahubali: The Begining

The story for the movie was created by Rajamouli's father V. Vijayendra Prasad who intrigued him by telling him a story about Kattappa and Sivagami two women who cross rivers while holding babies in their arms. His interest in the tale was further stoked by his fascination with the Mahabharata as well as the stories from Amar Chitra Katha and Chandamama. The final draught however took the authors three months to complete. M. M. Keeravani wrote the soundtrack and the background music and K. K. Senthil Kumar Sabu Cyril and V. Srinivas Mohan handled the cinematography production design and visual effects respectively. The film cost 180 crores ($28 million) to make making it the most expensive Indian film at the time of its release. The film was released worldwide on July 10 2015 along with dubbed versions in Hindi and Malayalam. It received positive reviews from critics and audiences alike and it became a box office smash. At the time of its release it was the highest-grossing film in India the third highest-grossing Indian film worldwide and the highest-grossing South Indian film with a worldwide box office gross of 600-650 crore ($93-101 million). It's Hindi dubbed version also set several records including being the highest-grossing dubbed film in Hindi history.

The main character of Baahubali: The Beginning (2015) is Shivudu a young tribal warrior who learns about his past and waits for his fate. The fictional kingdom of Mahishmati where the story is set is featured heavily. An elderly but regal woman (Sivagami) tries valiantly to protect a baby from a few charging soldiers but perishes in the process against the backdrop of a powerful waterfall. That infant boy is taken in by the tribal chief and his wife. The boy (Shivudu) defies his mother's orders and ventures out of the valley toward the waterfall and further north into the nearby mountains out of curiosity and courage. He simply falls in love with a rebel (Avantika) whose cause he willingly adopts. He frees the captured and enslaved queen who is later identified as his real mother (Devasena). A devoted warrior slave informs him of his father the good and righteous Amarendra Baahubali and his ambitious uncle Bhallaladeva (Kattappa). And what is the astounding response Kattappa provides to Shivudu's query regarding the identity of his father Amarendra Baahubali's killer?

During its box office run the film sold over 10 crores (100 million) tickets the highest estimated admissions for any film in India since Sholay (1975).

Bahubali's son Shiva starts seeking explanations after learning about his ancestry. His tale is contrasted with earlier occasions that took place in the Mahishmati Kingdom. Shivudu learns his ancestry as the prince of Mahishmati and the son of Amarendra Baahubali from Kattappa as he tells him the tale of Amarendra Baahubali. With the aid of Kattappa Shivudu now Mahendra Baahubali decides to depose Bhallaladeva and punish him for all of his past transgressions. After hearing a description of his parents' love affair and the betrayal that resulted in his father's death Shiva the son of Bahubali must assert his position as the legitimate heir to the Mahishmati Kingdom.

The film has production on a scale which has never been done before and is the most expensive Indian film ever made, with a budget of 600 crore rupees.

Struggles

The road to superstardom is a long one filled with many difficulties. Prabhas was one of the actors who took a while to receive the recognition he deserved. When he appeared in the epic and well-known Baahubali: The Beginning he received the attention he deserved. Many actors turned down this project but Prabhas was the one to accept it making him the star of the world-record-breaking movie. 'I've been in the business for around 13–14 years but I still have no idea how to handle stardom. My followers are disappointed that their hero doesn't appear more frequently. I've improved from before and I'm working to do better," stated Prabhas After Baahubali's massive success actor Prabhas gained the privileges of being a superstar but in real life he avoids all attention. 

The 43-year-old actor acknowledged that he is working on it in an interview with the news organization IANS. "I've been in the business for around 13–14 years but I still have no idea how to handle stardom. My followers are disappointed that their hero doesn't appear more frequently. I've improved and am working to do so." Prabhas who is rarely seen in public added in his interview: "Even now I still feel shy in interviews. I want a lot of people to come to see my film but I can't face (that many) people."

 

Prabhas also thought back to memories from when he hadn't yet made his acting debut and the idea of entering the film industry seemed somewhat 'impossible.' 'My dad is a producer and my uncle is an actor so when they asked if I was interested I said 'How can someone act in front of so many people with lights and emote?' I used to be timid. Once or twice my parents inquired and I responded that it is impossible 'He said to IANS. Prabhas is the nephew of director Krishnam Raju Uppalapati and the son of renowned Telugu producer Uppalapati Surya Narayana Raju. With the release of Eeshwar in 2002 Prabhas entered the Telugu film industry. Prabhas would have been a chef if he hadn't been an actor because - 'I had planned to start a business because I am too lazy to work. I had considered going into the hotel business because our family enjoys eating. And north Indian cuisine is well-known in Hyderabad.' So what prompted him to consider acting as a career? 'This is what I remember (though I'm not sure what happened inside my head). I was watching my uncle's film directed by Bapu one day. I imagined myself in the role of my uncle... Then I believe it began gradually somewhere 'Prabhas was quoted as saying by IANS.
