Prabhas Confirms More Projects With Hombale Films: 'We Are Planning For...'
Prabhas is one of the most bankable actors in the industry. He has many films, including Spirit, Salaar 2, and Fauji in his kitty. However, recently Prabhas opened up about his association with the production house Hombale Films. He described the bond as deeply personal and also hinted at many other films.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter India, Telugu superstar Prabhas confirmed about more films with Hombale Films. Describing the relationship as 'like a family," Prabhas confirmed, 'We are planning for more films together," hinting at new ventures beyond their current agreements.
Prabhas will be next seen in The Raja Saab. The romantic horror comedy directed by Maruthi is releasing on December 5, 2025. This film is being positioned as a lighter outing, showcasing the actor in a fun and entertaining avatar that contrasts with his recent intense roles. He also has an upcoming project with director Hanu Raghavapudi, tentatively titled Fauji, which is believed to revolve around themes of patriotism and drama, though details remain tightly guarded.
Beside this, actor Prabhas is gearing up for what is touted to be one of the most ambitious collaborations of his career with filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga in their upcoming film Spirit. Ever since the announcement, the project has generated a buzz across fan circles, with many speculating about its scale, emotional depth, and the actor's transformation for the role. Now, the wait for a major update is over. At a recent event in the United States, Sandeep's brother, Pranay Reddy Vanga, confirmed that the film will officially go on floors in September 2025.
Spirit marks the first collaboration between the Baahubali star and the Kabir Singh director, and expectations are already sky-high. According to earlier reports, Sandeep had specifically requested Prabhas to allot bulk dates for the film, as the role will require a complete physical and stylistic overhaul. This level of transformation would make it difficult for the actor to shoot for other films concurrently, prompting Prabhas to wrap up his existing commitments before fully immersing himself into the world of Spirit. Sources close to the project indicate that the makers plan to shoot the film in a single, focused schedule to preserve narrative continuity and character integrity.

Mohit Suri Regrets Not Praising Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Animal Publicly: ‘Wish I Tweeted…'
Last Updated: Saiyaara director Mohit Suri revealed that when half the world was criticizing Animal, he personally messaged director Sandeep Reddy Vanga to say he loved the film. Mohit Suri's recently released film, 'Saiyaara', starring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, is performing phenomenally and is breaking records at the box office! In a recent interview, Mohit Suri mentioned that filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga not only sent him a personal message, but also shared Saiyaara trailer on social media- a gesture that deeply moved him. He then expressed his regret for not publicly praising Vanga's Animal, despite his admiration for the film. He recalled messaging Vanga to commend his vision, evident in every frame of the movie. However, he wishes he had shared his appreciation for the Ranbir Kapoor starrer publicly. Although Suri didn't know Vanga personally, he became an admirer of his work after watching Animal and regretted not posting about it due to his social media hiatus. While speaking with Siddharth Kannan, Mohit Suri said, 'I have never met him. After Animal was released, half the world was against him, I had genuinely messaged him. I wish I had posted it. I don't know why I didn't. Because maine uss time pe social media sab delete kar diya tha. (I had deleted social media back then). But I genuinely loved the film. I messaged him (Sandeep Reddy Vanga) at the time, telling him I could see the director's vision in every frame. Without knowing you, I can see you. And I am a Sandeep Reddy Vanga fan. I wish I tweeted or shared it in public." He pointed out that public acknowledgment among industry professionals is uncommon, praising Sandeep Reddy Vanga for doing so and calling him a 'secure' person. 'Personal praise is common in this industry, but public acknowledgement is rare. Sandeep did both, and that takes a secure and generous person. The first thing my wife told me was that it takes confidence to praise someone publicly like that. I completely agree," he said. The host mentioned Vanga's comment that while Animal received personal appreciation, it lacked public praise. Mohit Suri agreed to it and said, 'He's completely right. I had deleted social media during the making of Saiyaara. I even had to ask my assistant for my passwords! When you're making a film with newcomers, you really need to shut out the noise and focus on the work." Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
