Another antagonist for Prabhas' story

Aside from Adipurush, Young Rebel Star has another film set to be released this year. Salaar is directed by Prashant Neel. Shruti Haasan is the lead in this film, which also stars Malayalam actor Prithviraj Sukumaran in a negative character.

It has already been confirmed that the film will have another villain. Saurav Lokesh, alias Bhajarangi Loki, has been cast as a villain in the film. The actor got his stage name after playing Bhajarangi Loki in Shiva Rajkumar's Bhajarangi. Lokesh is the most recent addition to Salaar's already vast roster of Sandalwood actors.

Salaar already has high expectations because it will be Prabhas' first huge mass action entertainer following his pan-Indian success from the Baahubali franchise, which portrayed him in a massy avatar.
