Prabhas, who attained global fame with ‘Baahubali,’ is facing a series of setbacks with three consecutive disappointments, beginning with his recent movie ‘Saaho.’ Despite the immense success of ‘Baahubali,’ none of Prabhas’ subsequent films have managed to achieve similar heights. While there’s talk about the potential impact of ‘Adipurush’ and the growing excitement around ‘Salaar,’ it’s hard to claim that any movie after ‘Baahubali’ has truly been a hit for Prabhas.
The film ‘Adipurush’ marked a turning point, reshaping Prabhas’ career path. Presently, the buzz around ‘Salaar’ is escalating, and ‘Adipurush’ seems to have set the stage for ‘Salaar’ to make a significant impact. However, the optimistic direction of Director Prashant Neel, which worked well for ‘KGF,’ doesn’t seem to be fitting this movie’s situation. Exhibitors are expressing concerns and seeking guarantees from the hero to ensure success. While there are whispers of Prabhas assuring exhibitors about ‘Radhe Shyam,’ the situation could be different due to the current excitement around ‘Salaar.’ Yet, uncertainty prevails, creating a puzzling scenario.
In reality, this phase is proving to be a tough one for Prabhas. How he emerges from this challenging situation remains to be seen. Will ‘Salaar’ bring back the hit track? Only time will tell, and it’s a sentiment shared by many that any hero, especially after collaborating with SS Rajamouli, often faces a string of disappointments.
