For a long time now, everyone has been wondering if Prabhas starrer Salaar has a connection to Yash’s blockbuster movie KGF. However, director Prashanth Neel has finally clarified that the two films are not related to one another. Recently, trade analyst Manobala Vijayabalan took to his X handle and shared a video of Prashanth from an interview in which he made it clear that there is no connection between Salaar and KGF.
“People started comparing it to the tone I had set in KGF. They started drawing some theories. I think this came a long time before the teaser came out or a couple of years back. They said, ‘This must be from the universe of KGF’. It was my mistake that I did not come out and say it loud enough. There is no part of Salaar that has a connection with KGF,” the director said.
Previously, in an exclusive conversation with News18, Prithviraj said that all comparisons would be put to rest once Salaar hits the screens. “I understand the comparisons that are happening between Salaar and KGF-2. I am a big Prashant Neel fan and I would have been disappointed had I seen his next film after KGF-2, which opens in a tulip field in Amsterdam. It is not something that I expect from him. It is too premature for the audience because 10 minutes into Salaar people will forget all the comparisons. Salaar is much bigger and grander than KGF-2. The scale of the film is so huge that it can even dwarf KGF-2,” he told us.
It was also being said that KGF’s Yash might make a special appearance in Prabhas’ much-awaited movie. However, producer Vijay Kiragandur recently revealed that Yash does not have a cameo in Salaar. “I think [director] Prashanth has clarified already that there is no link [between KGF and Salaar]. There’s no cameo in the movie. So that is not true,” Vijay told India Today.

SS Rajamouli asked Prashanth "Is there a connection between KGF and Salaar?" The director instantly replied, "No sir, absolutely not. These are two different worlds." Explaining his take on the shared cinematic universe, Prashanth added, "It was very convenient for us to take that route.
Yash's name was mentioned in the opening credits of Salaar, expressing gratitude from Hombale Films, the production company behind the movie. The opening credits of Salaar included a thank-you slide dedicated to Yash.
Salaar is not a part of the KGF Universe. It's a movie on its own, which is capable of having its own Universe, given the complex plot and the large number of layered characters. And therefore, it has a sequel.
Let me be clear, Rocky is not part of Salaar. You have stuck to your KGF cinematographer Bhuvan Gowda and composer Ravi Basrur in Salaar too... Just because we had something in KGF, it doesn't mean we'll replicate it in Salaar.
It is estimated that gold has been mined there for over 2000 years, and whilst many people over the course of history tried their luck at finding gold, Kolar Gold Field's modern success is generally attributed to the firm John Taylor & Sons, after John Taylor III took control of the mines in 1880 and established what ...
