While the pandemic hit everyone, it looks like Prabhas’s next, Salaar will benefit from the aftermath. Initially slated to release on April 14 this year, the Baahubali actor’s next with director Prashanth Neel was deferred due to the pandemic. Now, post the mammoth success of the director’s KGF: Chapter 2, producer Vijay Kiragandur has decided to upscale Salaar to make it a spectacular treat for cinegoers. It is being said that considering the lukewarm response to Radhe Shyam, in which Prabhas barely had any stuntbaazi, director Prashanth has apparently been asked to incorporate some high-octane action set-pieces to boost the movie’s commercial prospects. Salaar could well be the pan-India breakthrough that Prabhas needs to regain lost ground. Never mind if it comes with some help from his director’s newfound box-office stature.
A sweet wrap-up

Shooting for the film was one of her most cherished experiences. Apparently, she got a emotional on the last day and decided to thank the crew and the technicians with a token of appreciation. Sweet!

Scary Shakaal turns doting dadaji for young actor
Shershaah actor Pranay Pachauri, who will be seen next in the upcoming legal drama, Guilty Minds, is praise for his co-actors. However, the young actor, who plays a driven and ambitious lawyer in the web show, says working with veteran actor Kulbushan Kharbanda, who plays his grandfather, is a surreal experience. “As a kid, I’ve seen him play all sorts of characters. But the most memorable was Shakaal and I was scared of him as a kid,” recalls Pranay, who shares a lovely bond with Kulbhushan on screen and off it too. He adds, “He narrated his life experiences, acting experiences and his adventures from his younger days. He is a legend and to share screen space with him was nothing short of a dream come true.”

A film for a b’day gift

Overwhelmed!
Ranveer Singh is over the moon with the response the trailer of his upcoming film, Jayeshbhai Jordaar has garnered. Gung-ho about a new kind of heroism on screen, he says, “It has a relevant and pertinent social message embedded in it. But for the most part, it is an entertainer. Before he began filming, Ranveer participated in several workshops with director Divyang Thakkar to create a unique character.
