As the anticipation builds for the horror-comedy 'The Raja Saab', a heartwarming revelation about its lead star, Prabhas, has come to light. Known as much for his box office power as for his generosity, the 'Rebel Star' has a lesser-known talent that has impressed his co-stars.
Prabhas: The Biryani Chef on Set
Co-star Malavika Mohanan, who makes her Telugu debut with the film, recently shared a delightful secret about Prabhas. She revealed that the 'Baahubali' fame actor is not just passionate about ensuring his team is well-fed with home-style food, but he is also an accomplished cook himself. Malavika specifically mentioned that Prabhas makes a very good chicken biryani.
Speaking about her experience, Malavika expressed her admiration, stating she has been a fan since the 'Baahubali' days and even had a crush on him. She described Prabhas as humble and exceptionally kind, a person who treats everyone with genuine warmth and ensures they get the best food possible.
Creating a Warm Atmosphere on 'The Raja Saab' Sets
Malavika Mohanan further elaborated on the positive environment Prabhas fosters during shoots. She emphasized that despite his colossal stardom, he is a fun person to work with and treats every crew member with great respect, making everyone feel special. This aligns with other accounts of his on-set behavior, highlighting a consistent pattern of thoughtfulness.
This sentiment was echoed by another female lead in the film, Riddhi Kumar. She recently disclosed a sweet gesture from Prabhas during the film's pre-release event. Prabhas had sent her a beautiful saree in the initial months of the shoot, and Riddhi chose to wear that very gift for the event, showcasing her appreciation.
