A couple of days ago, Arshad Warsi made the headlines when he commented on Kalki 2898 AD. The ‘Munnabhai’ actor – during a recent podcast, compared Prabhas’ performance in the epic sci-fi film to a joker saying, “I want to see a Mad Max. I want to see Mel Gibson over there. Tumne usko kya bana dia yaar. Kyu karte ho aisa mujhe nahi samajh mein aata.”
While many movie buffs have supported Arshad’s comments, Prabhas’ fans have criticised him. As Arshad’s comment continues to go viral, an old video of SS Rajamouli comparing Prabhas to Hrithik Roshan has resurfaced online. Scroll below to see what he said and how fans are reacting to it.
SS Rajamouli: Hrithik Roshan is nothing compared to Prabhas
During a promotional event for Billa in 2007, SS Rajamouli said, “When Dhoom 2 (2006) released in Hindi. I felt sad that why Bollywood is getting good quality. Why we don’t have heroes like Hrithik Roshan? And today, after watching the song and poster of Billa, and now we watched the trailer, now I want to say that Hrithik Roshan is nothing compared to Prabhas. Telugu cinema has become far better than Bollywood. And now we are equal to English films.”
However, during a following public interaction, the ‘RRR’ filmmaker clarified that his intention was not to disrespect the ‘Krrish’ actor. He added that he has a lot of respect for him.
Allu Arjun justifies Rajamouli’s statement
In another video from the event, Allu Arjun was seen justifying SS Rajamouli’s statement. He said, “Prabhas’ looks are extremely good. He does great fights and is number 1 in all. As Rajamouli said, Hrithik Roshan is nothing in front of Prabhas. That’s true.”
Fans Reaction
Responding to SS Rajamouli’s old video, a netizen wrote, “@ssrajamouli If you could blabber utter nonsense, then #ArshadWarsi is absolutely justified! P.S: Acting, dance, physique, screen presence wise, #HrithikRoshan is miles ahead of #Prabhas. Hrithik, the actor can’t be compared to Prabhas, the pretender”
Commenting on the ‘Pushpa’ actor’s reaction to the statement, a user tweeted, “No hate to Hrithik fans, but #AlluArjun reportedly called #HrithikRoshan useless compared to #Prabhas! (shocking emoji) Why are some funding pages praising Allu while hating on Prabhas and only posting SSR video? (thinking emoji) And why the sudden video about Bollywood’s global change? #Prabhas #AlluArjun.”
