Is Baahubali Star Prabhas Too Expensive for Karan Johar?
Here's the latest update from the world of Bollywood. We bet you wouldn't want to miss this. Read on for details... Prabhas' remuneration could be the villain in his Bollywood career. Read on...
Karan
Johar was keen to launch Prabhas in Hindi cinema, however the actor demanded
20 crore for the film, suggest reports.
Actor Prabhas who was part of SS Rajamouli's
magnum opus Baahubali is still basking in the success of his film. Reportedly,
the actor has escalated his fees so much that the producers cannot afford him.
Prabhas In Baahubali
Apparently, KJo was keen to launch Prabhas
in Hindi cinema . But his asking fees of Rs 20 Crore is proving to be too
expensive for the producers. As per reports, a source told an entertainment
portal, “After Baahubali and its sequel, Karan was keen to launch Prabhas in
Hindi cinema. But on seeing the price he was asking, Karan has decided to
abandon the idea of launching him.”
"Prabhas had devoted five years of his life
to the two Baahubali films and it was only fair that he would want to cash in
on his new success,” says the source, adding that Prabhas went ahead and asked
for a new, inflated price. “But the price he asked for was staggering. While it
was okay for him to ask and get his desired price — reportedly in the vicinity
of Rs 20 Crore — in Telugu cinema, it was unrealistic for Prabhas to expect that
kind of remuneration in Bollywood. No South Indian actor, not even Rajinikanth,
has that kind of commercial clout in Hindi cinema. Prabhas has clearly
out-priced himself from Bollywood,” said the source.
A Still From The Movie Baahubali Featuring Prabhas
A few days ago, Prabhas starrer Saaho’s
first look was out. Seeing Prabhas walk with his face half covered has left us
intrigued. It’s got us wondering what the film will have in store for us.
Especially after treating us with something as grand and magnificent as
Baahubali, fans are rather expecting a lot from Prabhas in Saaho too.
