Have a safe and great day. See you soon…#HappyBirthdayNtr #stayhomestaysafe.” (sic)

Meanwhile, Kannada fans of Prasanth are left in ambiguity. Since the irector is expanding his horisons and shifting his base to reach out to for his work, many are worries that he may stop filming in his own mother-tongue. Clarifying over this, he said, “Kannada is in my DNA and it is here that I earned name. So right now my focus is all on KGF: Chapter 2 and I cannot confirm on any future projects. But I assure the next film I make will be in Kannada.” Well, we just hope Prasanth continues his fan base in Kannada and in Telugu too.
