Fauzi DoP Sudeep Chatterjee on Prabhas’ Honesty And Audience Connect, Praises, Saying, “He has very honest eyes, and that comes through the lens as a beautiful human being. That is what audiences connect with”

The biggest pan-India superstar Prabhas headlines Fauzi, helmed by Sita Ramam hitmaker Hanu Raghavapudi and backed by powerhouse Mythri Movie Makers, the banner behind the blockbuster Pushpa franchise. Fauzi hits cinemas on 3rd December, 2026.

Prabhas is the undisputed pan-India superstar of Indian cinema, with a massive fan following that extends across the globe. With an unmatched body of work, commanding screen presence and a track record of delivering blockbusters, his appeal continues to remain unparalleled.

The superstar is now gearing up for another ambitious chapter with Fauzi, a period drama that promises to showcase him in a fierce, intense and never-seen-before avatar. The makers recently unveiled an impressive glimpse featuring a blood-soaked Prabhas holding a gun, instantly creating a storm across the internet and amplifying anticipation for his big-screen arrival.

As the anticipation to see him continues to grow, Fauzi, which also marks the Telugu debut of acclaimed cinematographer DoP Sudeep Chatterjee, known for films like Guzaarish, Dor, Bajirao Mastani and Padmaavat, recently praised Prabhas. He highlighted that Prabhas’ honesty shines through the lens and is a major reason why audiences love him so deeply.

He shared, “Everyone I’ve worked with is special in their own way, but with Prabhas, you have to work with him to realize why people love him so much. There is just so much truth in his eyes. Not an iota of dishonesty. He has very honest eyes, and that comes through the lens as a beautiful human being. That is what audiences connect with.”

Fauzi marks Prabhas’ return to a grand Period Drama epic after Baahubali, promising an emotional and visually breathtaking cinematic experience. Touted as the most ambitious film ever from Mythri Movie Makers, this project brings together an extraordinary team: Prabhas x Mythri (Pushpa Makers) x Hanu (Sita Ramam Director), a collaboration being celebrated as “a union of generations” in Indian cinema.

Directed by Hanu Raghavapudi, Fauzi is made under the production of Mythri Movie Makers and presented by Tseries Films. The film is produced by Naveen Yerneni, Y Ravi Shankar & Bhushan Kumar. The film will be released worldwide on 3rd December, 2026.
