South's famous actor Sathyaraj, who appeared in the role of Kattappa in the 'Bahubali' series, has given a statement about Prabhas.
The actor said that superstars like Prabhas and Vijay have so much stardom that they cannot experiment with their roles. Their fans like to see them in larger than life roles only.
Sathyaraj got recognition in the Hindi belt by playing the role of Kattappa in Prabhas starrer 'Baahubali'.
'Superstars cannot do variety roles'
In a conversation with OTTPlay, Sathyaraj spoke about how the commercial success of superstars like Prabhas and Vijay has kept him from experimenting.
Sathyaraj said that the market and business of some actors has grown so much that their films automatically become big. Their projects are released worldwide and dubbed in many languages. In such a situation, these actors are not able to do variety of roles.
However, before this, Sathyaraj was also seen in Shahrukh-Deepika starrer 'Chennai Express'.
Thalapathy can't take risks now: Sathyaraj
Sathyaraj further said, 'Thalapathy Vijay has once done films like 'Love Today' and 'Kadhalukku Mariyadhai'. All of these were successful. In these films, he played the role of a middle class person, but now that he has become a big superstar, he cannot take the risk of doing such films.
Prabhas and Thalapathy Vijay have the status of superstars in the South.
'The public wants to see Prabhas in a larger than life role'
Similarly, Prabhas has also done many romantic films at one time. But after 'Bahubali', people want to see him only in larger than life roles. In today's era, the business of these superstars depends on their films. In such a situation, they also hesitate to take risks.
