Arshad Warsi has spoken up after facing backlash for his comments on Prabhas’ role in Kalki 2898 AD. In an earlier interview, Arshad referred to Prabhas’ character as a ‘joker,’ sparking outrage among fans and members of the South film industry. At a recent award function, the actor clarified that his remarks were about the character, not Prabhas as an actor.
During a recent conversation, Arshad explained, “I spoke about the character Bhairava, not Prabhas. He is a brilliant actor who has proven his talent time and again.” He expressed his frustration that such strong actors are sometimes given roles that don’t match their potential, leading to disappointment among fans.
Arshad also reflected on the merging of different film industries in India, expressing happiness about the diminishing language barriers. He emphasized that the Indian film industry should be united, stating that his competition is with global cinema, not within regional industries.
