The Baahubali trio, Prabhas, Rana Daggubati and SS Rajamouli were recently a guest on Karan Johar's popular talk show, Koffee With Karan. If the host's claims are to believe, it took him a long time and lot of convincing to get them together. Especially since this was Prabhas' debut on television. The shy, introvert actor prefers to be in a cocoon and hates to interact with a crowd, Rana, on the other hand, is quite outspoken and knows how to handle all the attention. It was fun to witness their 'honest' confessions and even hear Prabhas' answer to the sexiest actress in Telugu cinema currently. Koffee With Karan 6: Rana Daggubati Opens Up About His Break Up With Trisha; Prabhas Clears the Air on His Dating Rumours With Anushka Shetty – Watch Videos.

During the very famous rapid-fire segment on Karan's show when the actor was asked to name the sexiest actress in the Telugu film industry currently, he unhesitatingly picked Anushka Shetty as his answer. Now it's no rocket science to figure out why a basic answer by him has turned into an entire story. The Saaho actor is rumoured to be dating his Baahubali co-star and the stories of their affair are so strong that many believe they are planning to tie the knot soon. While the duo refutes any such reports and tags them as mere rumours, even Rana Daggubati refuses to give his nod to it. When Karan asked Prabhas to reveal the truth behind his relationship status and if he's taken by Anushka, he clearly declined saying 'no' and Daggubati gave his approval to it. Did Prabhas Just Insinuate That It Was Karan Johar Who Started The Dating Rumours About Him And Anushka Shetty?

Prabhas even cleared the reason behind him picking Anushka's name has no hidden meaning behind it. It's a simple answer to a simple question. The actor knows her for more than eight years and when two actors work together on a project for five long years, link-up rumours are bound to brew. Well, what do we say? Our mind is willing to accept his refusal but our hearts wants his denial to be just another reason to keep their affair hush-hush.
