In a recent interview, Arshad Warsi shared his thoughts on the film Kalki 2898 AD, expressing that he wasn't particularly impressed with the movie. He mentioned that he found Prabhas' performance lacking, even calling the actor a "joker." However, Arshad did praise Amitabh Bachchan's portrayal of Ashwatthama, highlighting it as a standout in the film. Arshad's remarks about Prabhas have since gone viral on social media, sparking a heated debate. Many fans of the Baahubali star have expressed their disappointment with the actor's comments. Amidst the ongoing controversy, an old video featuring filmmaker SS Rajamouli has resurfaced online, adding fuel to the Bollywood Vs South debate.
In the video, which dates back to the promotions of Prabhas' film Billa in 2007, SS Rajamouli made a comparison between Hrithik Roshan and Prabhas. He mentioned that when Dhoom 2 was released in 2006, he felt disheartened seeing the high quality of Bollywood films and wondered why Telugu cinema didn't have heroes like Hrithik. However, after watching the song, poster, and trailer of Billa, Rajamouli expressed that Hrithik Roshan was no match for Prabhas, stating that Telugu cinema had improved significantly and was now on par with Bollywood and even English films.
An X (formerly Twitter) user shared the video online which has received extreme reactions. The user captioned the video, '@ssrajamouli If you cud blabber utter nonsense, then #ArshadWarsi is absolutely justified!P.S: Acting, dance, physique, screen presence wise, #HrithikRoshan is miles ahead of #Prabhas . Hrithik, the actor can't be compared to prabhas,the pretender."
