He shared how this project became special in his life, saying that receiving a call from Prabhas during the Adipurush shoot felt like God himself had come into his life. His words clearly showed his deep respect and admiration for Prabhas.
Maruthi spoke about Prabhas global popularity by recalling an incident from his visit to the Masai Mara region in Africa, where local tribal people recognized Prabhas as the “Baahubali hero”. He assured fans that the team put in complete effort for this film and did not treat it as a routine project. He promised that the hard work would be clearly visible on screen and fans would truly feel it in theatres.
Talking about Prabhas hairstyle in the film, Maruthi said fans loved the ‘pilaka’ look and that his swag and comedy timing would remind everyone of vintage Prabhas. He thanked producer Vishwaprasad of People Media Factory for trusting him even when the budget increased and the film got delayed. Maruthi confidently said that theatres would echo with cheers on January 9 and promised a grand, Walt Disney–like cinematic experience for Tollywood. He also became emotional on stage while speaking about Prabhas’ role as his grandson in the film.
