Prabhas too expensive for Karan Johar?

Karan Johar has been long wanting to work with South Indian superstar, Prabhas but things have somewhat quietened down on that front.

According to SpotBoye, Prabhas has allegedly demanded Rs. 20 crore for his debut Bollywood film under Dharma Productions. The actor is said to have increased his fee after the success of blockbuster ‘Baahubali’.

A source told the publication, “Prabhas had devoted five years of his life to the two Baahubali films and it was only fair that he would want to cash in on his new success,” says the source, adding that Prabhas went ahead and asked for a new, inflated price. “But the price he asked for was staggering. While it was okay for him to ask and get his desired price — reportedly in the vicinity of Rs 20 Crore — in Telugu cinema, it was unrealistic for Prabhas to expect that kind of remuneration in Bollywood. No South Indian actor, not even Rajinikanth, has that kind of commercial clout in Hindi cinema. Prabhas has clearly out-priced himself from Bollywood.”

Prabhas will soon be seen in ‘Saaho’.
