Prabhas Varma (born 23 October 1976), popularly known as Prabhas is a Tollywood actor and the nephew of Tollywood star and politician Krishnam Raju Uppalapati. His father is U Suryanarayana Raju and mother is Siva Kumari. He is one of three children. His brother is Prabodh and sister is Pragathi.

Career

Prabhas started his movie career with Eshwar in 2002 about a poor boy falling in love with a rich girl. In 2003, he was seen as the lead in Raghavendra. Both did not do well at the box office.

Varsham (2004) reversed his fortunes. He was cast opposite Trisha. The film went on to become a hit. Then he acted under the direction of B. Gopal in Adavi Ramudu, which did not perform very well at the box office. In Krishna Vamsi’s Chakram (2005) he played a cancer patient. However Chatrapati (2005), in which he played a rebel, with Shriya Saran was a blockbuster.

The movies which followed were Pournami (2006), Yogi, Munna (2007) and Bujjigadu (2008).

In 2009 Prabhas was seen in Billa, which is a reworked Telugu version of the hugely successful bollywood film Don (2006). The movie stars Anushka Shetty and Namitha and also Hansika Motwani doing an item number. He shared screen space for the first time with his real life uncle, Krishnam Raju Uppalapati. The movie turned out to be hit. The recent movie Ek niranjan turned out to be an average one.
