The agreement includes the highly anticipated 'Salaar Part 2', followed by two additional features, marking one of the largest talent-studio deals in Indian cinema. This collaboration is expected to span several years, with the films slated for release in 2026, 2027, and 2028.
According to Variety, this deal strengthens Hombale's upcoming lineup, which already boasts projects like 'Kantara 2' and 'K.G.F: Chapter 3.' With a reputation built on mega-hits like 'K.G.F: Chapter 1,' 'K.G.F: Chapter 2,' 'Kantara,' and 'Salaar: Part 1,' Hombale Films aims to continue its streak of delivering cinematic spectacles.
Speaking about the new venture, Hombale founder Vijay Kiragandur expressed, 'At Hombale, we believe in the power of storytelling that transcends borders. Our collaboration with Prabhas is a step towards crafting timeless cinema that will inspire and entertain for generations to come.' This statement highlights the studio's vision of creating globally appealing films and leveraging Prabhas' star power.
Prabhas, who shot to global fame with the Baahubali franchise, currently has a packed schedule. Alongside the upcoming 'Salaar Part 2,' the actor is set to appear in films like 'The Raja Saab,' 'Spirit,' 'Kalki 2,' and 'Fauji.' His sci-fi epic 'Kalki 2898 AD' has already become the biggest Indian box office hit of 2024, adding to his impressive filmography.
Born as Uppalapati Venkata Suryanarayana Prabhas Raju, the actor began his career in Telugu cinema with 'Eeswar' in 2002. He rose to prominence with successful films like 'Varsham,' 'Chatrapathi' (his first collaboration with S.S. Rajamouli), 'Bujjigadu,' 'Billa,' 'Darling,' 'Mr. Perfect,' and 'Mirchi.' However, it was the Baahubali series that catapulted him to international stardom, solidifying his position as one of the biggest names in Indian cinema.
With this groundbreaking partnership, both Prabhas and Hombale Films are gearing up to deliver a trio of films that promise to be larger-than-life cinematic experiences. Fans can eagerly look forward to the magic that this collaboration is expected to bring to the big screen, starting with 'Salaar Part 2.'
