OTTplay reported that Salaar part 2 "will have the romantic track of Prabhas and Shruti Haasan, and the makers will also shoot a dream romantic song in the days to come." Do you think this is true? Is there any chance these two won't have some kind of romantic subplot?
Where do I begin to answer this question lol this is actually a second question I got regarding Aadhya and Deva romance. 🌚
Okay I will just answer it as best as I can, if the rumor that there will be a romantic song sequence between prabhas and shruti I can’t really say for sure if that’s true or not unless they confirmed it through the Salaar official account, but if you asked about what I personally think about it if🤔 there is a possibility for them to shoot such scene then the answer is yes.
Let’s be honest, even during the interview with Rajamouli, jakanna asked Prashanth why he didn’t have any romantic chemistry song between prabhas and shruti lol and Prashanth said that he initially had that in mind
But then Prashanth said that he was sucked into the drama so much, when he said drama he meant the relationship between Deva and Varadha. (You can watch the full interview or just watched from the minutes 30 to 45, they talked about many things regarding the change of the initial concept).
When we talked about the initial concept of Salaar we also have to take into account about ugramm plot, in that movie the focus wasn’t just about varadeva relationship, it was overshadowed by deva and aadhya romance as main plot driven.
While Salaar not only that Prashanth had changed the backhand story of ugramm into kingdom setting he also changed many things just because of prithvi alone, so if you asked me if Deva and Aadhya won’t have much of a romantic subplot this time, there’s also a possibility that they would scrap much of it in order to make room for more drama driven between Varadeva.
Prithviraj and Prashanth keep emphasizing that Salaar is pretty much about Varadeva only and beyond that, it’s just a support to the main storyline, even Aadhya x deva. When Prashanth said that Salaar nees to be told in 6 hours story it’s because he needs that much time in order to tell a flesh out story about deva and Varadha high and low relationship.
Not to mention that many of varadha scene was actually supposed to be Deva scene with Aadhya in original Ugramm, so yeah Varadha basically has steal the love interest plot and Prashanth did it with full picture in mind about how he would like his story go.
In a nutshell, yes there’s a possibility for romance plot between aadhya and deva in salaar 2, i am not naive of that but I also think based on the track record of the interview and even the storyline that we have seen so far in salaar part 1, even if there’s a romance (because people can’t handle gay hero just yet) between aadhya and deva then it will be just small portion of the story even in part 2 I think.
Also the only way for Prashanth to really convince me of Deva and Aadhya romance if he used the mumbai police plot which is… spoiler below
