Prashanth Neel was riding high on the success of kgf 2, and Salaar seemed huge a few months earlier. However, with the postponement and lack of marketing as the release date approaches, suspicions about the director develop, since no one is throwing fingers at prabhas in this circumstance. The question is, which director intends to make no promotions? Circumstances require a director to make this decision.
The filmmaker is rushing against the clock as a result of his mistake in meeting the release deadline. But, despite the poor trailer, it's too soon to dismiss a filmmaker like Prashanth Neel, given that we've only seen a few minutes of Salaar material. While no film is certain, we believe that underestimating Salaar or the filmmaker is foolish.
Salaar is said to be a remake of Neel's own 2014 film, Ugramm, which marked his directorial debut. Now that Neel has revealed Salaar's plan, it's clear that Ugramm was the inspiration, with a similar premise of two friends become adversaries. Neel claims that Salaar's plot was ready before kgf, implying that the film contains shadows of Ugramm. Ugramm didn't fare as well as it should have at the box office. So Prashanth had always wanted to return to the film and recreate it on a grand scale with the greatest actor and the finest technical standards.
