Prabhas's 'Salaar' teaser to release early morning on July 6
Set your alarm clocks! The teaser of Prashanth Neel's much-anticipated film Salaar is set to drop in the wee hours on Thursday (July 6). The film is Neel's first project of 2023, while it's Prabhas's second cinematic outing of the year. The Baahubali star is rumored to be playing dual roles in this violent action drama which will hit theaters on September 28.
Why does this story matter?
Prabhas was last seen in Om Raut's critically panned Adipurush—a multilingual drama that starred him as Raghav. Salaar is his opportunity to bounce back in the game and deliver a film that is loved both critically and commercially. Expectations from Salaar also arise due to director Neel, whose KGF franchise made Yash a pan-Indian superstar not too long ago.
The teaser will be out at 5:12am
Salaar's production house Hombale Films announced on Monday that the film's much-awaited teaser will be out on July 6. "Brace yourself for the most violent man, Salaar," said the announcement. They also tweeted a dark, grisly black photo of Prabhas in the middle of a murder rampage. However, what caught everyone's attention was the time slot of the teaser—5:12am!
Meet the other actors in the cast ensemble
Apart from Prabhas, the film also stars Shruti Haasan and Prithviraj Sukumaran. Talking about his role in the film, the Ayyappanum Koshiyum actor earlier said, "I had listened to the narration and I absolutely loved it. It's a superb story and I immediately said yes." Jagapathi Babu, Shreya Reddy, and Naveen Singh are reportedly also a part of the ensemble.
