Actor Prabhas, often referred to as the 'Rebel Star,' is renowned not only for delivering massive box office hits but also for his incredibly generous and warm-hearted nature. As he gears up for the release of his much-anticipated horror-comedy, The Raja Saab, his co-star, Malavika Mohanan, has shed light on a charming, lesser-known talent of the actor that involves the kitchen: his cooking skills.

Prabhas' Signature Dish: Homemade Chicken Biryani

It is widely known in the industry that the Baahubali star takes great care of his team members, often ensuring that they are treated to delicious, home-style food on set. However, Malavika Mohanan recently revealed a sweet detail, as reported by Telugu Cinema, that goes beyond just serving catered meals.

Malavika shared that Prabhas is not only a fantastic host but also a surprisingly skilled cook. She revealed his signature culinary masterpiece: a very good chicken biryani. Speaking highly of the star, she praised his humble and kind demeanor, stating, "He treats everyone with warmth and ensures they get the best food." She also admitted to being a long-time admirer, adding, "I have been his fan since Baahubali days and even had a crush on him." This revelation underscores the actor’s commitment to making those around him feel cherished and well-fed.

Warm and Respectful Gestures on Set

The actress, who plays one of the female leads opposite Prabhas in The Raja Saab and marks her Telugu debut with the film, further elaborated on the positive environment the star fosters. Malavika stated that Prabhas ensures everyone on set feels special and respected.

"He is not just a huge star but also a fun person to work with and someone who treats everyone with great respect," she affirmed. These anecdotes paint a picture of an actor who uses his massive stardom to create a respectful and convivial working atmosphere, rather than an intimidating one.

A Sari Gift That Stole the Show

Prabhas's thoughtful gestures extend beyond food and warmth. Recently, at the pre-release event for The Raja Saab, another female lead of the film, Riddhi Kumar, shared a sweet story of her own.

Riddhi revealed that Prabhas had gifted her a beautiful saree during the initial months of the shoot. In a heartfelt touch, she proudly wore that very saree to the film's official pre-release event, turning the gift into a memorable moment for the cameras and fans alike. Such gestures from a leading star highlight the personal bond and camaraderie that he shares with his co-stars.

The Raja Saab Gears Up for Release

Directed by Maruthi, the highly anticipated The Raja Saab is set to hit theatres this week, on Friday, January 9, 2026. The film features a massive ensemble cast, including Nidhhi Agerwal, Malavika Mohanan, and Riddhi Kumar, alongside seasoned actors like Boman Irani, Sanjay Dutt, Zarina Wahab, and popular comedians Brahmanandam and Vennela Kishore, promising a complete package of horror and comedy entertainment for the audience.
