Prabhas (born 23 October 1979) is an Indian actor who predominantly works in Telugu cinema. He is one of the highest-paid actors in Indian cinema. He made his acting debut with the 2002 Telugu action drama Eeswar and attained his breakthrough with the action romance Varsham (2004) for which he received his first nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Actor – Telugu. In 2005, he appeared in S. S. Rajamouli's action drama Chatrapathi, in which he portrayed the role of a refugee, exploited by goons. It had a 100-day run in 54 centers and emerged as the biggest blockbuster of year. It earned him his second nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Actor – Telugu.[1]

Later, he went on to star in the musical drama Pournami (2006), the action film Yogi (2007) and the action drama Munna (2007), which received lukewarm response from both audience and his fans alike. In 2008, he collaborated with the director Puri Jagannadh for action-comedy Bujjigadu which gave the actor a much needed comeback. In 2009, he featured in two films, Billa and Ek Niranjan. The latter earned him his third nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Actor – Telugu. In 2010, he starred in the romantic comedy Darling, which received positive reviews from audiences and critics upon release. It went on to be one of the highest grossers of the year and critics praised Prabhas performance, terming his performance as the major highlight of the film.[2] In 2011, he starred in another romantic comedy Mr. Perfect and his performance in the film earned him his fourth nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Actor – Telugu. In 2012, Prabhas starred in action film Rebel, received mixed reviews from critics and under-performed at the box office.[3] Post the setback with Rebel, he starred in action drama Mirchi (2013) which opened to positive reviews from critics and was one of the highest grossing Telugu films of the year 2013 as well as one of the highest-grossing Telugu films of all time at the time of its release.[4] He won the Nandi Award for Best Actor for his performance in Mirchi.[5][6]

In 2015, Prabhas played a dual role in S.S. Rajamouli's epic action film Baahubali: The Beginning (2015). With a budget of ₹180 crore, it was the most expensive Indian film ever made at the time of release, and became a record-breaking box office success.[7] The film eventually grossed over ₹600 crore (US$72 million) worldwide, making it the highest-grossing Telugu film and the second highest-grossing Indian film at that point.[8] He reprised his role in the sequel, Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (2017), with a budget of ₹250 crore, it was the most expensive Indian film ever produced at the time of release. It became the first Indian film ever to gross over ₹1,000 crore (US$120 million) worldwide in just ten days and eventually grossed over ₹1,810 crore (US$220 million) worldwide, making it second-highest-grossing Indian film worldwide to date and the highest-grossing film in India till date.[9] Prabhas became the first Indian actor to have ₹100 crore and ₹200 crore opening day grosser worldwide. His performance in both film earned him his sixth and seventh nominations for the Filmfare Award for Best Actor – Telugu. He won the SIIMA Award for Best Actor – Telugu for his performance in The Conclusion. The success of Baahubali propelled Prabhas to become the first “Pan-Indian star”.[10]

Prabhas went on to star in Saaho, Radhe Shyam & Adipurush. He then collaborated with Prashanth Neel for a two-part film series Salaar, the first part titled Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire (2023) released in December 2023 to positive reviews and emerged as the highest-grossing Telugu film of 2023, third highest-grossing Telugu film of all time, the second highest grossing A-rated Indian film and the biggest opener of 2023.[11]

In 2024, Prabhas starred in an epic action sci-fi film Kalki 2898 AD, which was inspired by the Hindu epic Mahabharata.
