Earlier there were also reports which suggested that Prabhas and Anushka are already engaged. Telugu superstar, Prabhas opened about the rumours about engagement and stated to a media portal, “I do not want to reveal my private life. Many people ask me if I have affairs and the issue of marriage crops up invariably. But, these people should understand me. Don’t ask me about my marriage. It looks very superficial. I want my life to be private. But, when I marry, I shall tell everyone about it.” (Also Read: Anushka's Pink Saree Caught Everybody's Attention, When She Attended A Wedding With Prabhas)
Talking about his friendship with Anushka, Prabhas remarked, "When we first worked together we had decided that at no cost we would allow rumours of our linkup float around. We have been film friends for nine years now. We are very good friends. We have known each other for years but I admit sometimes when such stories start doing the rounds, then I too start wondering if there is, indeed, something between us."
Also, Prabhas and Anushka have never let their friendship grow into love because they know there's no future together for them. Prabhas hails from a conservative family who consider love marriage as a taboo. A friend close to Prabhas’ family once shared in an interview, “There is a very strong friendship. But both of them have never allowed that friendship to grow into anything deeper because they know there is no future for them. Prabhas’ family won’t allow it. He will never go against his father and uncle’s will. He will have an arranged marriage.” (Also Read: 'Banoo Main Teri Dulhann' Fame Snehal Sahay Becomes Mother, Divyanka Shares Baby's First Pic)
