In a recent interview, Om Raut discussed how he persuaded Prabhas to accept the part. Speaking to India Today, the director admitted that it was difficult to persuade him because they had a phone conversation while everyone was trapped during the pandemic. He asked me, “What is it that you want me to play?” The conversation went something like this. I responded, “Are you serious?” I want you to portray Prabhu Shri Ram, that’s what I mean. I want you to portray Raghav in the play. Are you sure, he asked? I affirmed. After that, he asked, “How will this happen?” With such a big star, it was impossible to narrate the movie over a Zoom call.
