00:00 That was a very pleasant surprise for me when I listened to the script.
00:03 And that will be the same surprise that the audience will get when they watch the film.
00:07 30 seconds into shaking hands with him, it will seem like you've known him for years.
00:11 It's got great drama in it.
00:13 I keep comparing Salar to Game of Thrones.
00:15 I did not expect when they said that, that Salar would be a film like this.
00:20 And what I mean is, when you imagine Prashant Neel, the director of KGF series,
00:25 making a film with Prabhas, one of the biggest stars of the country,
00:28 you don't think that it will be a film about two friends, about the bond between them,
00:33 that it will be a drama.
00:35 And that is what Salar is actually.
00:37 On top of all the spectacular action sequences you will see,
00:42 on top of the production design, the scale,
00:44 what Salar is, essentially, is a drama.
00:47 It's a story about two friends.
00:49 And that was a very pleasant surprise for me when I listened to the script.
00:52 And that will be the same surprise that the audience will get when they watch the film.
00:57 Working with Prabhas is the easiest thing to do.
01:00 And it's because of the way Prabhas is as a person.
01:03 The first time I met Prabhas was on the first day of shoot, on the sets of Salar.
01:08 And 30 seconds into shaking hands with him, it will seem like you have known him for years.
01:14 And that's not because of me, that's because of him.
01:17 He's like that with everyone.
01:19 It's got great drama in it.
01:21 I keep comparing Salar to Game of Thrones
01:23 because that's the kind of intricate drama that the film has.
01:26 Yes, it has a lot of action, violence, huge set pieces.
01:31 But there's also a very deeply emotional drama running all through the film.
01:37 And that, I think, is very special.
01:39 That's not something you find in all action films.
