Here is what you need to know about this development.

John Abraham to play villain in Prabhas’ Salaar?

The announcement of Salaar was made quite recently, with fans getting hyped up for it right from the start after learning that Prabhas would be a lead in it. There has been a buzz about who the villain in this film would be, there have been reports suggesting that John Abraham may be seen taking up the role of the antagonist in the film, as reported in Filmi Beat.

It may be a bold assumption to make about John being included in the Salaar cast, given that he has a number of films up his sleeve that are slated for a release. Some of these films include Mumbai Saga, Attack, Satyamev Jayate 2 and Sardar. On the other hand, there are also rumours emerging which say that Disha Patani will be cast in Salaar. While none of these rumours are confirmed, fans would be hoping to see John and Prabhas together in the film. Salaar will be directed by Prashant Neel, who also directed KGF.
