Actor Prabhas is known to be an introvert and often doesn't interact with the media in general. Prabhas was recently in Japan promoting Baahubali: The Epic. The superstar received a huge welcome from fans who were excited to see him in person after many years.

During one of the events, talking to the media and audience there, Prabhas shared a sweet childhood memory that instantly won everyone’s hearts.

The actor spoke of his childhood memories and said, “I was little naughty as kid. I remember my Dad bringing toys and me and my brother were more interested in magnets. We used to play with it. We used to trouble my mother. She has three kids. I'm youngest”.

Fans gathered in large numbers, hoping to meet him as soon as news spread that Prabhas would visit Japanese theatres. Videos of fans cheering for him went viral across social media platforms, proving once again how strong his global fanbase is.

A few days ago, Prabhas travelled to Tokyo along with producer Shobu Yarlagadda to promote the 4K re-release of Baahubali: The Epic.

Speaking to the audience, Prabhas said that coming to Japan has always been his dream. He shared that for almost ten years, he has been hearing wonderful stories about Japanese fans from director SS Rajamouli, producer Shobu Yarlagadda and Lakshmi garu.

He added that he even planned to visit during the promotions of Kalki 2898 AD, but a small injury stopped him. Now standing in front of his Japanese fans, he said he hopes to visit Japan every year and continue meeting them.

The Japanese audience has always shown great love for the Baahubali series and Kalki 2898 AD and now Baahubali: The Epic has created fresh excitement. Though SS Rajamouli could not travel this time due to his work on Varanasi starring Mahesh Babu, he sent a video message expressing happiness that fans finally got to meet Prabhas.

The actor is currently in Italy holidaying and all set to resume Fauzi with Hanu Raghavapudi. He is simultaneously shooting for Spirit with Sandeep Reddy Vanga. While fans are eagerly waiting for Salaar 2, they are disappointed with how The Raja Saab is made.
