Telugu superstars cannot even hope to find a huge market in South India, as Tamil and Malayalam people have different taste compared to Telugu people.
But there are actors who for at least few years could manage to impress people Nationwide at some scale.
ANR, Chiranjeevi, Nagarjuna enjoyed fame in other languages and in case of Chiru and Nag, in 90's they found fame in Hindi markets too.
But their preference to work more in Telugu made them think about stories that appeal Telugu people more and did not try to utilize small opportunities they had to convert the fame into a market.
Now, Baahubali series has made Prabhas an all-India sensation. His body structure and his hard work to look like Baahubali is enough to trigger many become his fan.
In Punjab, Baahubali-2, especially became a huge blockbuster and the records the movie created in the territory are huge.
An example for his stardom is that in a gym in Punjab, a life-size stand-in of Prabhas has been installed to promote fit body shape and also, to inspire the customers.
We have to wait and see, how Prabhas will convert this fame into a substantial market with his next movies like Saaho.
