Prabhas was initially hesitant about collaborating with Diljit Dosanjh for Bhairava Anthem

Bhairava Anthem: Diljit X Prabhas

The collaboration between Prabhas and Diljit Dosanjh in Bhairava Anthem has been a treat for fans. However, according to media reports, Prabhas was initially doubtful about adopting a 'Sardar' look and was even sceptical about its reception across diverse Indian audiences.

The decision to feature Prabhas in a 'Sardar' avatar alongside Diljit Dosanjh was met with cautious optimism by both the producers and Prabhas himself. Balancing the representation of North and South Indian cultures posed a challenge that required delicate handling.
