மகேஷ்,

நீங்கள் குறிப்பிட்ட பிரபு சாரின் குணாதிசயங்களோடு, இன்னொன்று....

உலகமே போற்றும் நடிகருக்கு மகனாகப்பிறந்தும், 'தலைக்கனம் கிலோ என்ன விலை?' என்று கேட்கும் மனப்பாங்கு

ஆம். நிலை உயரும் பொது பணிவு கொண்டால் உயிர்கள் உன்னை வணங்கும் என்பதை ஆண்டவன் கட்டளையாக நினைப்பவர் அவர்.

I am not sure whether anybody posted this before. Prabhu has been doing some telugu films off late. I saw him in Darling with Prabhas and Shakthi with Junior NTR. It seems he was also with Ram Charan Tej(Chiru Jr) in Orange . For your attention Groucho bro.

I always like govinda, kadhar khan and shakti kapoor combination....it was a big hit and hereafter govinda become a comedy king or mass hero (whetever we call) in Bollywood... He was the most bankable star in rural areas such as bihar, UP , MP etc at the time.

Yep, watched him in Darling. Not sure why he wants to do telugu films. After all, he's doing the same sort of daddy-roles that he's been doing in Tamil....only difference is that he gets an awful dubbing voice in Telugu.
Nasser and Prabhu are pretty much in the same boat now

Dabbu sir dabbu. Telugu films pay on a higher scale. Prabhu is the earning machine for the extended family I guess - just like NT was for his and his brothers' families in his time. It is this dynamic that saw NT accepting all sorts of movies and gracing unworthy ventures with his presence. Happening to Prabhu also I guess - Sivaji Films hasnt been a hugely succesful production house either...

BTW, Darling is the one with Prabhas-Kajal Agarwal, with Prabhu playing Prabhas' dad?

[ajithfederer]

Yes plum. He wasn't bad there. I saw that film. Had a couple of funny scenes.
