With Adipurush releasing in two days in cinemas worldwide, Kriti Sanon has opened up about her equation with her rather 'reserved' co-star Prabhas. The Telugu star plays the role of Raghav (Ram) whereas Kriti essays the role of Janaki (Sita) in the upcoming re-imagined Ramayana tale. The actress recently said that no one could have played the role of Raghav other than Prabhas because of his expressive eyes. She also spoke about how she broke the ice with him.

Speaking about working with Prabhas for the first time and the impression she had of him, Kriti Sanon told ETimes, “I had heard he was reserved and initially he did come across as shy. But there wasn’t much ice to break. I just casually started talking about how my first film was a Telugu movie and it’s tough to act in a language that I didn’t know, then he opened up and started talking. He is incredibly grounded, warm and respectful. He has very expressive eyes and a calm demeanour and I couldn’t imagine anyone else playing Raghav.”

Adipurush, directed by Om Raut and produced by T-Series, Bhushan Kumar & Krishan Kumar, Om Raut, Prasad Sutar, and Rajesh Nair of Retrophiles, Pramod and Vamsi of UV Creations is scheduled to release worldwide on June 16, 2023.
