Post the Baahubali series, Prabhas has created a solid image among audiences across languages in Indian cinema as a Pan-India hero. His films promise big-ticket experiences for audiences, and if we observe, now every upcoming film of Prabhas is a franchise film.
Salaar and Kalki 2898 AD are the last releases of the Baahubali actor, and neither is a standalone film with a sequel announced. His ongoing films are also turning into a franchise.
The Raja Saab producer, Vishwa Prasad, already announced that they are in talks for a franchise, and if the movie succeeds, there will be multiple parts for the film. Hanu Raghavapudi is making Fauji with Prabhas, and there is buzz that it is also turning into a multipart film.
HanuMan director Prasanth Varma is also said to have plans of linking his movie with PVCU. So, if we observe, every upcoming film of Prabhas is turning into a franchise film.
Not only is this true for Prabhas, but most of the heroes are now doing franchise films only.
