Prabhas reveals what Kangana Ranaut once told him about an astrologer’s

Prabhas plays a palmist with the ability to correctly predict the future in his new film Radhe Shyam. During the film’s promotions recently, he recalled one incident where he heard a story about an astrologer’s prediction coming true. The incident happened with Kangana Ranaut. Prabhas said that she recounted the incident to him while they worked together on the 2009 Telugu film Ek Niranjan.

Prabhas shared that Kangana had told him that before she became an actor and was still living in her hometown in Himachal Pradesh, an astrologer had told her that she was going to be a heroine one day.

In conversation with director SS Rajamouli as part of promotions for Radhe Shyam, Prabhas recounted, “Kangana told me this interesting thing back when we were shooting for Ek Niranjan. She grew up in a small town not related to cinema at all. She met an astrologer. She went there and they told her she was going to be a heroine.”

The actor said that Kangana, at the time, did not believe the astrologer’s prediction. “She brushed it off thinking ‘I’m just a small town girl and these people are fooling me with heroine talk’. We heard many incidents like this, which might have happened but I find them hard to believe,” he added.

Kangana was born and brought up in Bhamla, a small hill town. She made her Bollywood debut at the age of 18 with Anurag Basu’s Gangster. In a long career since, the actor has appeared in successful films like Tanu Weds Manu, Krrish 3, and Queen. She has also won the National Award four times.

Prabhas’ new film Radhe Shyam also stars Pooja Hegde and has been directed by Radha Krishna Kumar. The period romantic drama hit the screens on March 11 to lukewarm critical reception.
