After Baahubali, Prabhas is all set to return on the big screen with his action-thriller titled Saaho, opposite Shraddha Kapoor, which is slated to release on August 30, 2019. If The Times Of India report is to be believed, Prabhas has planned a private screening of his soon-to-release film, Saaho, especially for Anushka. Though there is no official confirmation on the same, we really hope this piece of gossip proves to be true!
During the promotions of Saaho, Prabhas addressed the rumours of his relationship with Anushka Shetty and the reports of them house-hunting in Los Angeles. Refuting the reports, Prabhas was quoted as saying by The Times Of India, “If there was something between Anushka and me, you would have spotted us somewhere in these two years. But we haven’t been seen anywhere, so obviously, it is a rumour, no? We can’t hide in the room for two years. We are actors and people will recognise us when we step out. So, it’s just a rumour. If people don’t want to believe us, I can’t help it.”
There have been reports about Prabhas and Anushka Shetty looking for a property in the sunny locales of Los Angeles. Denying them, Prabhas continued, “I don’t know how these things come up. I think people want me to have some kind of an affair or at least tell them that this is the girl I like. Otherwise, they are going to link me up with someone.”
In an interview with the Navbharat Times, Prabhas had earlier stated, “Anushka and I had decided that we’ll never let dating rumours about us do the rounds. We are family friends since nine years. But when these link-up rumours come up, even I start wondering if there is actually something between us? (laughs). We know there is nothing between us. Actors are said to have an affair if they star in more than one film together.” (Also Read: Sara Ali Khan Reveals What Comes To Her Mind First When She Thinks Of 'Love', It Isn't Kartik Aaryan)

The top three Baahubali stars, Prabhas, Rana Daggupati and the brainchild of the film, SS Rajamouli had featured on the latest season of Karan Johar’s celebrity chat show, Koffee With Karan. When the topic about Anushka and Prabhas’ relationship was brought up, the latter had blatantly refused the rumours of their dating and had clarified, “If any two people will work together for two years, of course, they will be linked. But I wasn't dating Anushka. Ask Raj (Rajamouli) if you want."
The rumours of Prabhas and Anushka Shetty’s wedding were also rife sometime back. Refuting the reports, Anushka was quoted as saying, "Prabhas and I are not getting married. Please do not expect Baahubali and Devasena like chemistry in real life. It is only for the screen." Adding further, Anushka had continued, "There is no truth in rumours doing the rounds that my parents are compelling me to get married. First, we have to find a good person. If I like him, then, the wedding will take place. I will invite friends, family, fans and well-wishers and will get married before them with their blessings."
In an interview with the ET, Prabhas had reacted to his marriage rumours with the co-star, Anushka Shetty, “It’s my private matter and I don’t want to reveal anything.” Prabhas had further shared that whenever he will decide to get engaged, he will inform the media. Earlier the reports had also suggested that Prabhas and Anushka are already engaged, but the Telugu superstar 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.”
In an interview, Anushka Shetty had talked about settling down and her marriage plans and had revealed, “I totally believe in marriage, but I want to get married and have children at the right time and when I meet someone who connects with me. I like children very much but I don’t want to marry out of compulsion.” She had further gone on to say, “When I was 20, they started telling me to get married! But it has to come at the right time and they know the person that I am. They respect what I feel and don’t pressurise me anymore.” (Also Read: Karan Johar Reveals He Has Never Been In A Serious Relationship, Shares Who Loves Him In Purest Way)
