At a recent event celebrating the launch of the vibrant song 'Nache Nache' from the upcoming film 'The RajaSaab,' seasoned actor Boman Irani captivated the audience with delightful anecdotes about his co-star, the pan-Indian superstar Prabhas. Irani highlighted a side of Prabhas that often remains hidden from the public eye—his remarkably humble and grounded personality off-screen.
Prabhas' Unassuming Demeanor Wins Hearts
Boman Irani spoke candidly about the unexpected nature of working with a star of Prabhas' colossal stature. He pointed out that superstardom often brings with it certain behavioral expectations, but Prabhas defies them all. "And it's NOT! With his team, with the other actors, with the small actors, with the technicians, with every single person, Prabhas talks like a young boy," Irani revealed. He emphasized that Prabhas maintains a 'handshake culture' with everyone on set, fostering a relaxed and friendly atmosphere that puts everyone at ease.
The Endearing 'Boy-Next-Door' Superstar
Delving deeper into Prabhas' character, Irani described the actor's enduring innocence despite his monumental fame. "There is something boy-ish about him, there is something innocent about him. He is enjoying his superstardom, but he is not rubbing it in front of you," Irani explained. He noted that while everyone recognizes Prabhas as a superstar, the actor himself does not seek or expect special treatment.
Irani also shed light on Prabhas' playful side, which adds to his charm. "The way he likes to joke, he likes to laugh, and anyone says something funny, he is the first one to laugh the loudest and the longest, as if to say he is still a teenager. It's so beautiful," the veteran actor shared, painting a picture of a joyful and unpretentious set environment.
A Rare Glimpse of Humility at the Peak of Success
Reflecting on the rarity of such humility, Boman Irani expressed his admiration. He remarked on the "innocence of someone who could have arrived at a certain status… and still be so innocent," adding, "I'd like to be like that." His words underscore a profound respect for Prabhas' ability to remain authentic and connected despite achieving the highest levels of success in Indian cinema.
The multi-lingual film 'The RajaSaab' is directed by Maruthi and boasts a stellar ensemble cast including Malavika Mohanan, Nidhhi Agerwal, Riddhi Kumar, and Sanjay Dutt, alongside Boman Irani and Prabhas. The movie is scheduled for a wide release across Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam languages, aiming to captivate audiences nationwide.
