Prabhas

Prabhas made his acting debut with a pleasant role in the Telugu film Eeswar in 2021

He gave his breakthrough performance in the film Varsham that was released in 2004

Prabhas's first collaboration with filmmaker SS Rajamouli was for the action-paced drama 'Chatrapathi'. In the film, he essayed the role of a refugee, exploited by goons

In 2008, Prabhas once again collaborated with Trisha for Puri Jaggannadh's action-comedy film 'Bujjigadu'. The film released to positive reviews and was later remade in Bangladesh as Pagla Deewana with Pori Moni & Shahriaz

Prabhas's film 'Billa' was a very visually stylish film.  The film stars Prabhas in a dual role alongside Krishnam Raju, Anushka Shetty, Namitha, Rahman, and Kelly Dorjee. A remake of the 1978 Hindi film Don by Salim–Javed

In 2010, he appeared in the romantic comedy Darling which received positive reviews upon release

The film was the biggest Telugu blockbuster of 2010. The film made him the Darling of the masses 

This 2011 film 'Mr Perfect' further strengthed his star status in the Telugu film industry. The romantic comedy film directed by Dasaradh also stars Prabhas, Kajal Agarwal and Taapsee Pannu

In 2012, Prabhas starred in 'Rebel', an action film directed by Raghava Lawrence. While the film was made purely for the masses, it earned him the title of 'Young Rebel star' which continues to be associated with him

With professional success also came rumours around his personal life. For the longest time, he has been rumoured to be dating Anushka Shetty

The rumours got stronger when they displayed amazing chemistry in Baahubali 2

With the success of Baahubali, Prabhas achieved pan-India status. For the film, the actor refused several offers and dedicated years to the making of the two part film directed by SS Rajamouli

With his pan-India status, filmmakers started investing in the actor and trusted him with big budget projects. However, his latest projects like Saaho and Radhe Shyam failed to have the Baahubali like impact

His last release was 'Adipurush'. Touted to be the biggest film of the year, the film tanked at the box office. Not only was the film criticised by reviewers, even fans of the star trashed it

Now all eyes are on Prabhas's next film 'Salaar' with KGF director Prashant Neel. The film hopes to revive the actor's status at the box office

Kalki 2898 AD saw Prabhas don a cool, futuristic look that was loved by fans. He built a good physique and grew his hair out for the role

Prabhas is currently gearing up for the release of his film 'The Raja Saab' which will see him don multiple looks

The eye-catching poster presents Prabhas in a stylish avatar, effortlessly radiating charisma against the backdrop of a majestic vintage palace bathed in warm, earthy hues. This unique blend of modern cool and nostalgic elegance has left fans in awe, with many commenting that Prabhas' look in The Raja Saab evokes a sense of his timeless charm while infusing a fresh and vibrant energy

Produced by TG Viswa Prasad under the People Media Factory banner, the film is set for a grand theatrical release on April 10, 2025, across five languages—Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam—solidifying Prabhas’ pan-India appeal
