Nobody could do what Prabhas has done for Baahubali: Rana

Chennai April 27 (IANS) Actor Rana Daggubati says that his Baahubali co-star Prabhas deserves more credit than anyone for his involvement because what he has done for the film is greater than any other individuals contribution.

What Prabhas has done for the film and what he has given is far greater than any of us could have done Rana told IANS heaping praise on his co-star with whom he locks horns in the film.

In the film Prabhas and Rana play warring brothers who fight over the ownership of an ancient kingdom.

Asked about the debate on who is the real hero of Baahubali on social media he said: This is a franchise-based film and it s not driven by just one character. If you look at the franchise each character is important from the perspective of the story. It s the content that even drives all the actors but not any individual s stardom.

He also went on to add that both their characters are equally important.

We are like Ram and Raavan. Without these two characters there s no Ramayan. Similarly without Prabhas and I there s no ‘Baahubali . We complement each other as characters and we need each other he said.

Directed by S.S. Rajamouli the film also stars Anushka Shetty Tamannaah Bhatia Sathyaraj and Ramya Krishnan.

The second part in the franchise is slated for release on Friday.
