Summary
- Prabhas' debut film 'Eeswar' released 23 years ago
- 'Baahubali 2' made him the first Indian actor with a ₹1,000 crore grosser
- Prabhas just wrapped filming for 'The Raja Saab' on his 23rd anniversary

As of November 12, 2025, it has been 23 years since Prabhas made his debut in the film 'Eeswar'. Back then, the reserved newcomer carried the promise and legacy of his legendary uncle, Krishnam Raju. Over the past two decades, Prabhas has evolved from a promising actor to a global phenomenon, delivering a filmography that mirrors his growth rather than repetition.
From the romantic charm of 'Varsham' to the raw intensity of 'Chatrapathi', Prabhas has mastered the balance between strength and sensitivity, captivating both mass and family audiences. However, it was the 'Baahubali' franchise that truly catapulted him to new heights. The two-part epic not only made box office history but also turned Prabhas into the face of Indian cinema's global rise, with 'Baahubali 2' becoming the first Indian film to cross the ₹1,000 crore mark worldwide.
In the years since, Prabhas has continued to push the boundaries, headlining projects like 'Saaho', 'Salaar: Part 1 - Ceasefire', and 'Kalki 2898 AD'. His unique superstardom is defined by a quiet presence that anchors the grandeur of his pan-India image. As he recently wrapped up filming for 'The Raja Saab', a romantic horror comedy, Prabhas has come full circle, marking his 23rd anniversary in the industry with a poignant milestone.
