Speaking about this role, Rajamouli shared his admiration for Prithviraj’s performance, stating,

“After filming the first shot with Prithvi, I told him, ‘You’re one of the finest actors I’ve ever worked with.’ It’s creatively fulfilling to bring the dark, ruthless, and powerful antagonist Kumbha to life. Thank you, Prithvi.”
