In the interview, Prabhas said, “The whole film is made for international audiences. That's why it's the highest budget and we've got the best actors in the country.” He further talked about being called as a pan-Indian star and said, "We were hearing for the first time people calling me ‘pan-Indian'. That doesn't really affect me but it's a good feeling to think that people around the country like me now.”
