Did doctors advise Prabhas to rest again due to knee issues?

Fans of Prabhas may have to wait a little longer for his much-anticipated projects, as reports suggest the actor might take a break due to recurring knee issues.

Following a successful knee surgery last year, Prabhas dived straight back into work, signing multiple films and maintaining a packed schedule. However, the demanding workload appears to have impacted his health once again, prompting doctors to recommend rest.

What are Prabhas health issues and knee problems?

Prabhas underwent knee surgery in 2023 to treat a long-standing injury that had troubled him for years. The procedure took place in Europe, followed by a brief recovery period. His health struggles trace back to the intense physical demands of the Baahubali films, where he underwent rigorous training, extreme dietary restrictions, and drastic body transformations over four years. While the films became cult blockbusters and cemented his status as a global star, the relentless strain took a toll on his health, leading to persistent issues that continue to affect him today.

Prabhas’s other health concerns

Beyond his knee troubles, Prabhas has reportedly been dealing with other health issues over the past few years, including fatigue and weight fluctuations due to his intense filming schedules. Fans noticed his physical transformation post-Salaar, and sources indicate that he has been following a strict fitness regimen to regain his full strength. His team has assured fans that while his health requires monitoring, there’s no major cause for concern.

Delays for Spirit

One of the films that could be affected by Prabhas’s health concerns is Spirit, directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The film’s production schedule remains uncertain, with the director recently scouting locations in Mexico. If Prabhas does take a step back to focus on recovery, filming might face further delays.

Current and Upcoming Projects

Despite these setbacks, Prabhas has a jam-packed lineup of films:

The Raja Saab – A horror-comedy directed by Maruthi, which is currently in production.

Fauji – A historical fiction drama helmed by Hanu Raghavapudi.

Spirit – His highly anticipated collaboration with Animal director Sandeep Reddy Vanga.

Salaar: Part 2 – Shouryaanga Parvam – The sequel to his blockbuster action thriller Salaar, expected to begin production later this year. While fans may be disappointed by potential delays, Prabhas’s well-being remains a priority. If he does take time off, it would allow him to return to the big screen in top form, ready to deliver another string of box office hits.
