The first thing he did after completing his portions for Baahubali 2 was to get a haircut. “First I want to cut my hair. Basically, I am fed up with my hair. I don’t know how to control my hair. But I want to look normal without my moustache and beard,” he had said.

However, his hard work and dedication paid off in a big way. He is now a global star and has also become the first South Indian actor to get a wax statue at Madame Tussauds.

Prabhas achieved the global fame after his latest film Baahubali: The Conclusion became India’s biggest earner. The movie, which was directed by SS Rajamouli, on Monday completed 75 days run at the theatres.

Sahoo, being directed by Sujeeth, went on floors earlier this month. The film will be produced in Telugu, Tamil and Hindi, in order to cash in on Prabhas’ pan-India popularity. Reports suggest that Prabhas will dub for himself in all the three languages and has been training in Hindi for the same. Bollywood actor Neil Nitin Mukesh is playing the main antagonist in the film, which will be produced by UV Creations.

The details of the remaining cast remains unknown. Speculations were rife that Prabhas’ Baahubali co-star Anushka Shetty will be roped in as the female lead. However, sources close to the filmmakers have neither denied, nor confirmed the reports. It seems like the makers of Saaho want to keep the fans guessing.
