The world of Khansaar has fascinated global audiences and they are all raving about it the film leaves the masses with a surprise that sets the stage right for the sequel 'Salaar Part 2: Shouryanga Parvam'.

Actor Prithviraj Sukumaran who plays Vardharaja Mannaar in the film is all praise for the movie and director Prashanth Neel. In an interview with Galatta Plus ahead of the theatrical release of the film last year, Prithviraj talked about 'Salaar'. "On top of all the spectacular action, huge set pieces, it is a drama. I keep telling Prabhas that 'Salaar' is like Game of Thrones. I keep comparing because it is an intense drama with very intricate character dynamics."

Prithviraj revealed that he heard the narration of the film in Hyderabad from Neel when he was shooting for his Malayalam film 'Bro Daddy'. He said that Prabhas was first person he called after listening to the narration and told him that it is 'about time' that he did a film like 'Salaar'. "Because even as a filmmaker, I am excited to see him in this space."

"He is one of those huge stars who are delightfully unaware of his own stardom. He will be on set, and will be the last person to sit down. If another actor doesn't have a chair, he will keep standing till they don't get one. He is a gentleman. Never once did I feel that I am in another industry, so I am not the lead star on a set. That thought didn't even cross my mind. Prabhas is a big star but comfortable and secure enough to have another actor play such a big role, have screen time and so much importance throughout the film," said Prithviraj praising his co-star.
