Shruti Haasan announced on Thursday, February 23, that she has completed filming her portions in Salaar, which will see her paired with Telugu superstar Prabhas under Prashanth Neel's direction. Billed to be an intense and high-octane action thriller, the leading actress took to social media to inform fans that she has finished shooting for her character Aadya, while also extending her gratitude to director Prashanth Neel, actor Prabhas, cinematographer Bhuvan Gowda, and the film's production banner Hombale Films. Posting a picture of herself with Prashanth and Bhuvan on Instagram, Shruti wrote in her caption: "AND it’s a wrap on SALAAR for me 🖤🧿 Thankyou Prashant sir for making me your aadya.. you are exceptional ..Thankyou @actorprabhas for being beyond wonderful the absolute darling and @bhuvanphotography for just being so kind and being you .. @hombalefilms it was lovely working on this special film with ALL of the team that was filled with positivity and truly felt like family by the end of it ❤️🧿 so grateful #seeyouatthemovies".
Salaar will open in cinemas worldwide on September 28 and is currently one of the biggest ventures in production. The Telugu film being produced by Vijay Kiragandur is also expected to come out as a pan-Indian release later this year in other languages, with the promotional material unveiled so far receiving a phenomenal response from fans. Shruti Haasan is said to be playing an integral role in the proceedings of Salaar and it will be interesting to witness her in action alongside Prabhas, who has been a leading name in Indian cinema since the staggering success of his Baahubali films.
Apart from Prabhas and Shruti Haasan, Salaar also stars Prithviraj Sukumaran as Vardharaja Mannaar and Jagapathi Babu as Raja Mannaar and are reportedly playing the antagonists, while Madhu Guruswamy, Easwari Rao, and Sriya Reddy are set to appear in pivotal roles. The film is also director Prashanth Neel's first Telugu venture after he made the nationwide blockbuster KGF franchise.
