When Prabhas chose Jr NTR over Ram Charan, Allu Arjun and Mahesh Babu
In 2018, Prabhas appeared on the famous chat show Koffee With Karan alongside his Baahubali co-stars Rana Daggubati and director SS Rajamouli. During the show, host Karan Johar asked Prabhas an intriguing question. In the rapid-fire round, Karan asked him to rank his contemporaries—Jr NTR, Ram Charan, Allu Arjun, and Mahesh Babu—based on their on-screen performances. To everyone’s surprise, Prabhas picked Jr NTR as his top choice, followed by Mahesh Babu, Allu Arjun, and Ram Charan.
This moment from the episode became highly discussed, especially among Jr NTR’s fans. Many were thrilled to hear Prabhas, a leading figure in the Indian film industry, praising their favorite actor. The candid nature of the conversation during this episode added to the show’s appeal, with several other noteworthy moments taking place.
Another topic that caught attention was Prabhas addressing rumors about his relationship with his former co-star Anushka Shetty. The two had worked closely for years during the making of the Baahubali films, leading to widespread speculation about their relationship. Prabhas cleared the air, humorously dismissing the rumors. He explained that spending so much time together on set inevitably leads to such speculation, but there was no truth to the rumors. He even jokingly asked Rajamouli to confirm his statement, adding a light-hearted touch to the conversation.
Meanwhile, Prabhas’ latest film, Kalki 2898 AD, directed by Nag Ashwin, hit theaters on June 26, 2024. The movie, a highly anticipated sci-fi project, features an ensemble cast, including Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone, and Disha Patani. Looking forward, Prabhas is set to appear in a romantic-comedy horror film titled Raja Saab Fan India, slated for release in April 2025. Additionally, he will collaborate with director Sandeep Reddy Vanga on the much-talked-about film Spirit, a project that has fans eagerly awaiting its release.
Prabhas continues to be a major force in Indian cinema, not only for his iconic roles but also for his honest and relatable personality off-screen.
