Prabhas shares a candid pic with Prashanth Neel, wishes his 'Salaar' director happiness and success on his birthday

A lot's been said and written about Salaar, the upcoming Telugu-Kannada bilingual, of late. From reports suggesting that Prabhas' sudden weight gain has interrupted Prashanth Neel's shooting schedule to speculations regarding its theatrical release, there is no dearth of news concerning Salaar. But the camaraderie among the core cast and crew members seems undiluted, regardless of all the rumors, and Prabhas' endearing birthday wish to his director Prashanth Neel proves just that.

Prabhas shared a lovely candid picture of the two from the sets of Salaar via his Instagram handle (stories) and wished Neel a very happy birthday. "To happiness and success, always. See you soon!" read the rest of the note to suggest that the team Salaar will hit the strides very soon, following a break in the shooting schedule. 

Prashanth Neel turned 42 on June 4 and his birthday was a rather grand affair with all the stars and glamour part of it. The same event in Bengaluru saw the team of K.G.F: Chapter 2 celebrate the film's completion of 50 days at the box office with Prabhas too joining in. The Telugu superstar came down to the garden city to be amidst some great company, comprising his Salaar director Prashanth Neel, Rocking Star Yash, producer Vijay Kiragandur, and many others from the film world. The pictures from the event have now gone viral on the internet.

As far as the making of Salaar is concerned, a few recent reports have suggested that the production has hit a roadblock of sorts. While these rumors, so to speak, are unsubstantiated, the same reports have revealed that Prabhas has gained weight following his recent knee surgery and this is said to have become a cause for concern for Prashanth Neel. The director, reportedly, has decided on stalling things until Prabhas gets back in shape and is not keen on employing VFX to make his lead actor look chiseled in the film.
