Karan Johar reportedly refused to launch Prabhas in Bollywood due to his exorbitant fee demand

Mumbai: Filmmaker Karan Johar has reportedly refused to launch actor Prabhas in a new Bollywood project, reports DNA. Prabhas became a raging superstar after SS Rajamouli’s Baahubali, in which he played the titular role. Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions got the distribution rights of the Hindi version of the film after which certain sections of the press suggested that Karan had decided to handle Prabhas’ Bollywood debut.

DNA, however, reports that Prabhas apparently asked for a mammoth fee of Rs 20 crore following which Karan decided to drop the project.

“Prabhas had devoted five years of his life to the two Baahubali films and it was only fair that he would want to cash in on his new success. But the price he asked for was staggering. While it was okay for him to ask and get his desired price — reportedly in the vicinity of Rs 20 crore — in Telugu cinema, it was unrealistic for Prabhas to expect that kind of remuneration in Bollywood. No South Indian actor, not even Rajinikanth, has that kind of commercial clout in Hindi cinema. Prabhas has clearly out-priced himself from Bollywood. After Baahubali and its sequel, Karan was keen to launch Prabhas in Hindi cinema. But on seeing the price he was asking, Karan has decided to abandon the idea of launching him,” DNA quoted a source as saying.

Why Was Africa Called the Dark Continent?

Why Was Africa Called the Dark Continent? Email The most common answer to the question, “Why was Africa called the Dark Continent?” is that Europe did not know much about Africa until the 19 th century, but that answer is misleading. Europeans had known quite a lot, but they began ignoring earlier sources of information. More importantly, the campaign against slavery and missionary work in Africa actually intensified Europeans’ racial ideas about African people in the 1800s. They called Africa the Dark Continent, because of the mysteries and the savagery they expected to find in the “Interior ."

OPINION | Dear Congress, Either Join The Tea Party, Or Lose T-Shirt In Gujarat The BJP understands, as the Congress does not, that tea symbolizes all the fuzzy warmth of Indian culture. It is a great leveller — from the richest to the poorest, everyone drinks tea. Mahatma Gandhi famously took his tea with a pinch of salt. It was 1931, the Salt Satyagraha was a year old and his tea-serving host was the British Viceroy, Lord Irwin. Had the Indian National Congress recalled that little soupcon of history, it would not have put out a meme of a British Prime Minister ordering another Gujarati (PM Narendra Modi) to ‘go sell tea’. The Mahatma was no great votary of tea, but was a master of symbolism. Gently rubbing salt into the Imperial wound, he twinkled, “To remind us of the famous Boston Tea Party”. An exquisite reference to the genesis of American Independence, with the implicit promise of freedom for India. If only today’s Congress understood the power of symbols a tenth as well.
