INTERESTING BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Prabhas, the celebrated Indian actor, is known for his larger-than-life presence on screen, but behind the celebrity facade lies a genuine passion for food that steered his early aspirations towards the hospitality industry. In numerous interviews, he has candidly shared that if acting had not been his calling, he would have ventured into the hotel business. Food not only nourishes his body but also serves as a delightful connection to his roots, which reflects his warm personality. Growing up surrounded by the glitz and glamour of the film industry—being the nephew of renowned Telugu actor Uppalapati Krishnam Raju—Prabhas found inspiration in family ties, leading him to explore the world of acting.

In his formative years, like many boys, Prabhas harbored a crush on Bollywood star Raveena Tandon, showcasing his youthful aspirations and admiration for cinematic talent. His cinematic journey, however, took a significant turn when he burst onto the scene with his breakthrough role as Venkat in the film ‘Varsham’ (2004). This pivotal moment laid the groundwork for his future stardom, ultimately culminating in his first Bollywood appearance in ‘Action Jackson’ (2014). As his career flourished, Prabhas became a household name, especially with the monumental success of the ‘Baahubali’ series, which took five years of meticulous filming and preparation. To embody the character, he invested around Rs. 1.5 crores in gym equipment and underwent intense training with Mr. World 2010, Lakshman Reddy, showcasing his dedication to the craft.

The culmination of his efforts in the ‘Baahubali’ franchise came with ‘Baahubali 2: The Conclusion’ (2017), which etched its name in history as the highest-grossing Indian film ever, grossing over Rs. 1500 crores worldwide. The overwhelming success of this epic saga not only solidified Prabhas’s status as one of Tollywood’s highest-paid actors but also led to an astonishing reality—over 5,000 marriage proposals flooded his way from adoring fans. Additionally, his unprecedented acclaim was further highlighted when he became the first South Indian actor to have a wax statue at Madame Tussauds in Bangkok, symbolizing his global recognition within the industry.

Despite his fame, Prabhas remains grounded with a deep love for literature, maintaining a personal library at his residence as a testament to his avid reading habits. Nature is another passion of his; he cherishes the tranquility of his garden filled with various birds kept in open cages, reflecting his love for wildlife. In his leisure time, Prabhas often indulges in volleyball, having even constructed a volleyball court at home. His commitment to fitness was exemplified during the ‘Baahubali’ shoot, where volleyball was integrated into his workout regime. While he has publicly acknowledged his occasional smoking and fondness for social drinking, these habits do little to overshadow the dedication and hard work he invests in his career and passions. Prabhas’s multifaceted personality, combined with his artistic achievements, continues to captivate audiences, making him a remarkable figure both on and off the screen.
