'Salaar's teaser sparked speculations of 'KGF' connection
The world of Salaar shown in its teaser evoked memories of KGF, given that Neel directed the latter as well. Speculation is rife that Salaar might inhabit the same cinematic universe as KGF. The teaser also showed Prabhas surrounded by men wielding machine guns, exuding the same heroism as Yash in the Kannada blockbuster. Additionally, there is a second part to Salaar, as indicated by the film's title, Salaar Part 1: Ceasefire.
