In the old video which recently resurfaced on Reddit, the filmmaker could be heard saying, “When Dhoom 2 released two years ago, I wondered why only Bollywood can make such quality films. Don’t we have heroes like Hrithik Roshan? I just saw the songs, poster, and trailer of Billa, and I can only say one thing. Hrithik Roshan is nothing in front of Prabhas. I’d like to thank Meher Ramesh (director) for taking Telugu cinema to Hollywood level.”
Meanwhile, SS Rajamouli is riding high on the success of his magnum opus RRR. The Telugu film recently won a Golden Globe award for Best Original Song for Naatu Naatu beating Hollywood singers.
