DK Shivakumar claimed that an industrialist who came to meet him was wearing Meta smart glasses, raising his suspicions about a possible attempt to record their conversation.
Happy birthday, Prabhas! As the clock strikes midnight on Friday, October 23, millions of fans across India and beyond celebrate their beloved Darling. May the year ahead bring you boundless energy, good health and the same quiet strength that has made you a cherished icon. Shine on, Rebel Star!
Prabhas stands tall as one of the biggest pan-Indian stars, seamlessly bridging languages and audiences with his powerful screen presence. From the epic heights of Baahubali and the futuristic world of Kalki 2898 AD to the gritty action of Salaar, he continues to redefine stardom on a national scale. His impressive slate includes the period action drama Fauzi, Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Spirit, Kalki 2 and Salaar: Part 2. These projects keep him firmly at the centre of India’s biggest cinematic conversations, with many now hailing him as “India’s Biggest Superstar.”
Social media is buzzing with birthday preparations as fans organise special video tributes, hashtag campaigns such as #HappyBirthdayPrabhas, and community events. Celebrations include cake-cutting ceremonies, blood donation drives, food distribution programmes and lively bike rallies in several cities.
Over the past year, admirers have shared warm wishes, expressing their hopes for more powerful blockbuster performances, regular updates on upcoming films such as Fauzi and Spirit, and continued good health for the actor. They also hope he continues to inspire millions with his grounded nature.
Many simply want him to keep delivering larger-than-life roles that unite audiences nationwide. The Fauzi team is also planning a special visual surprise for the occasion. Through it all, the love remains unwavering, reflecting the deep bond between Prabhas and his devoted fans.
By his next birthday, Prabhas is expected to have a theatrical release in Fauzi, scheduled for March 2027, and could be gearing up for the release of Spirit, which is slated for October 29, 2027.

Director Prashanth Neel, known for KGF, is expected to begin pre-production on Salaar 2 after completing Dragon. To mark Prabhas’s birthday, Neel met the actor, and the two posed for a photograph. The film’s team shared the picture with a note: “A special day and a special reunion. Wishing our one and only Violent Man, #Prabhas a spectacular birthday! We can’t wait to see this DINO-mite duo back in action…Salaar 2.” Earlier, Neel’s wife, Likitha Reddy, shared a picture with Prabhas, describing him as an elder brother.
The sequel has been in limbo for a while. In May, Neel confirmed that Salaar 2 would be his next film after Dragon. This put to rest rumours that he had shelved the sequel after describing Dragon as his last film in the dark, hyper-stylised action genre. Dragon is slated for release on June 11, 2027.

Delays on both sides explain the wait. Dragon has taken longer than planned, and Neel cannot move on until it wraps. Prabhas, meanwhile, has a packed slate. Fauzi, Spirit and Kalki 2 are all in progress, and Spirit now has a revised release date of October 29, 2027. With both the director and the actor busy, Salaar 2 has continued to be pushed back.
Prabhas’s birthday brought other updates too. The Kalki 2898 AD team shared a 32-second behind-the-scenes video from the sequel. It opens with the words “Bhairava is back” and shows Prabhas arriving on set in his character’s armour. Amitabh Bachchan and Kamal Haasan have also returned to the sets. About 90% of the shoot remains to be completed.
Meanwhile, the Fauzi team released a new poster. It shows a golden coin featuring Prabhas in a military uniform, surrounded by flames. Fauzi is scheduled to release in theatres in March 2027.
