What happens when the KGF director directs the Baahubali star?Expectations touch skyhigh. The stakes are humongous and the product is seen as the biggest event of Indian cinema in the year 2023.
At this given point of time Prashanth Neel the director of the two KGF mega-hits, is the biggest most sought-after filmmaker in India.
While the first KGF film accrued boxoffice collections of more than 200 crore rupees, Chapter 2 which released on 14 April is expected to break all records by collecting more than 500 crore rupees by the end of the May.
The KGF director Prashanth Neel is now on to his next project, Salaar which stars the Baahubali actor Prabhas. After the grand success of KGF Chapter 2, Salaar will now bne upgraded drastically.
Apparently producer Vijay Kiragandur has decided to augment the budget considerably to make the film more spectacular and epic in scope.Apparently several action sequences are being added to Salaar, as it is felt after the failure of Radhe Shyam where Prabhas had scarcely any action scenes, that Prabhas’ fans like to see him in the action mode
Prabhas who has had a massive setback in Radhe Shyam,needs a magical touch to his career.Salaar may just be the pan-India breakthrough after Baahubali that he desperately needs.
Incidentally Salaar was supposed to be released on April 14 ,2022 , the day that Prashanth Neel’s KGF Chapter 2 finally released. Salaar was delayed by the pandemic which proved a blessing in disguise. Now the product can be upgraded to as per the director’s singular boxoffice standing.
