Exclusive: Prabhas to skip Karan Johar's Baahubali 2 bash

Mumbai: India’s biggest superstar of the moment is nowhere to be found.

Just a day after 'Baahubali2: The Conclusion' released, actor Prabhas took off for a holiday to the US.

“It had been decided that Prabhas would leave immediately after 'Baahubali 2' releases. And he did. He will now return only in time to start his next film,” says a source from the 'Baahubali' team.

The source further added that the 'post-release pressure' had taken a toll on the actor, so much so that he will even skip the big bash that Karan Johar and producer Shobu Yarlagadda plan to co-host this month.

Says a source, “Karan Johar wants to wait for Prabhas to return to India before hosting the 'Baahubali bash'. But it’s unlikely that Prabhas will join the party. He is not the socialising kind at all. He doesn’t drink and can barely exchange hellos with strangers.”

Earlier this week, Prabhas also missed the screening of 'Baahubali 2' in London by the British Film Institute, which saw S.S. Rajamouli, producer Shobu Yarlagadda and actress Anushka Shetty in attendance.

“Prabhas was sorely missed in London,” says a source.
