- Industry outlets cite a Gulte report claiming Prabhas stepped away after a test shoot for the tentatively titled Baka.
- The film was reportedly backed by Mythri Movie Makers, with Prabhas expected to play the demon Bakasura.
- India Today and News18 relayed the trade reporting and stressed that neither Prabhas nor Prasanth Varma has confirmed the development.
- Coverage frames the reported exit as another setback for Varma following earlier turbulence around projects like Ranveer Singh’s Brahma Rakshasa and Nandamuri Mokshagna’s debut.
- Separate reports say Prabhas is prioritising Fauzi before moving to Kalki 2898 AD: Part 2 and then Spirit, underscoring his crowded schedule.
