The movie “Salaar,” directed by Prashant Neel and starring Prabhas, has hit the screens across Telugu states and India. Amidst immense excitement, the film has become a blockbuster sensation.
Set against the backdrop of a city named Khansar, the movie has captivated audiences. However, there’s a curious inquiry regarding the authenticity of this city’s existence. In the film, Khansar is depicted between Pakistan and Gujarat, sparking doubts about its real location.
Contrary to the movie’s portrayal, the actual Khansar isn’t situated between Pakistan and Gujarat. Khansar is a county nestled in Iran, specifically in the Isfahan province. It’s home to over 22,000 Persian inhabitants.
Despite sharing a name, the Khansar city depicted in the movie bears no resemblance to the real Khansar county in Iran. Even though the film is enjoying massive success at the box office, it has brought attention to the lesser-known Khansar.
The movie’s current triumph at the box office has set the stage for eager anticipation of its second part. Produced by Hombale Films with an impressive budget of around Rs. 400 crores, “Salaar” continues to enthrall audiences with its unique storyline and setting.
