With immense success, meritorious talent, ‘to die for’ hotness and most importantly their singlehood, some of the B-town’s handsome hunks are definitely a catch! While some of the eligible bachelors have already broken the heart of millions and taken the plunge, some of the desirable men are still enjoying their bachelorhood. Baahubali actor and superstar in the Telugu film industry, Prabhas belongs to the latter category, or we would like to believe so unless he makes an official confirmation about his relationship status.

Ever since Prabhas and his alleged ladylove, Anushka Shetty have floored us with their sizzling on-screen chemistry in Baahubali: The Beginning and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, fans have been rooting for their off-screen romance too. Despite working in Billa and Mirchi together, it was the Baahubali series that had taken the relationship rumours of Prabhas and Anushka to a whole new level. Despite the constant denials, their dating and marriage reports don’t seem to fade away.

During the promotions of Saaho, his first film opposite Shraddha Kapoor, Prabhas has been often surrounded by the questions about his relationship with Anushka Shetty. During a recent interaction with a Telugu channel, Prabhas was all praises for Anushka but also revealed one complaint that he has from her. Revealing the same, Prabhas said that she doesn’t attend calls on time.
As per a Filmfare report, Prabhas is set to tie the knot right after his film, Saaho releases. If the report is to be believed, Prabhas will get married to the daughter of a US-based businessman and though there has been no official confirmation regarding the same, his sister had accepted in an interview earlier that the marriage might be on the cards for him. Prabhas’ sister was quoted as saying, “He is very close to us and is completely down to earth. We spend a lot of time together when he is not shooting for films. We respect him a lot and he loves us so much. He surprises us with many gifts as per our interests. We are eagerly waiting like everyone for his marriage. As he is busy with films, we are not sure about the wedding date but our family is quite excited and we sisters are sure going to make so much noise throughout his wedding.”
On the professional front, in an interview with the DNA, when Prabhas was asked if it was his decision to start another film only after Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, he had replied, “Actually, after part one, we decided to take a gap of six months during which I thought we will shoot for Saaho because I knew Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017) will take one-and-a-half years. But after Baahubali: The Beginning (2015), I was so tired. I also felt it wouldn’t be good to shoot for a couple of months, stop and restart because, in between, I’d have to shoot for Baahubali 2. I cannot do the (different) looks or shoot them because I know the way it goes. And as I said, I needed some rest, so we decided to shoot after Baahubali 2.” (Also Read: Shahid Kapoor And Mira Rajput Kapoor's Sea-Facing Duplex Worth 56 Crore Is Ready To Move In, Details)

Between his two action films, which one did he find more challenging? Prabhas had revealed, “Baahubali was definitely more challenging. Saaho is a contemporary film and the action scenes are designed to the next level. But in the former, everything was new. I always wanted to do a period film and the most exciting part was the war. In Saaho, the action is real. The truck that you see sliding in the trailer is real, it is not CG (computer graphics). That vehicle was travelling at a speed of 40 miles per hour and we needed to stop it. That stunt had to be done in real motion and it was extremely hard to stop the truck because the tyre was out of control. So, we got the drivers from the Hollywood film Transformers, and a lot of action and stunt masters from around the world to get that real feel.”
Saaho is a debut for Prabhas in the Hindi film industry while Shraddha Kapoor forays into the South with this film. When asked, “Did you help each other?” Prabhas had retorted, “The first day Shraddha spoke Telugu, I was shocked. She must have practised but still she was so good. She was excited about shooting the Telugu portion because it was new for her. The same thing happened to me while shooting Baahubali in Tamil because that was a first for me and it brings new energy. While filming Saaho, I used to ask several times whether my flow and accent in Hindi is right because words can be corrected later in dubbing, but the flow has to be right. I had a Hindi tutor, Kamal sir from Mumbai on sets and even during the dubbing.”
Addressing the rumours of his relationship with Anushka Shetty, Prabhas had said, “I know there have been a lot of rumours since the last four years. Once I was linked to a politician, whom I had never met. That was one of the most hateful rumours, it was irritating. Anushka and I are friends and when we did Baahubali, we worked for four years together. People liked the love story and Devsena (her character). It is common to get linked with your co-star. But you cannot hide something like this for two years. And, why should we hide if there is something?” (Also Read: Prabhas Reacts To The Rumours Of Him House-Hunting With Alleged Muse, Anushka Shetty In Los Angeles)
