Sandeep Vanga while unveling the poster of Spirit on Prabhas\' birthday, stirred a hornet\'s nest with the caption \' India\'s Biggest Super Star\'.\r\nThis triggered a huge war between Shah Rukh Khan fans and Prabhas fans. In the midst of all this, Tollywood filmmaker Hemanth Madhukar shared his thoughts.\r\n&ldquo;It was an obvious reaction since fans are quite sensitive about their favourite stars,&rdquo; He says and adds &ldquo;There&rsquo;s no doubt that Shah Rukh Khan is inarguably the biggest superstar in India, given his unmatched global fandom. SRK has sustained his superstardom for over 30 years &mdash; that&rsquo;s not an easy feat. From Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai to Chennai Express, and now entering the â‚¹1,000-crore club with Pathaan and Jawan, he&rsquo;s clearly ahead of Prabhas in sheer consistency and experience,&rdquo;\r\nHe added &ldquo;We can&rsquo;t deny that some of the biggest Indian blockbusters in the last decade &mdash; Baahubali, Salaar, and Kalki &mdash; belong to Prabhas. He&rsquo;s the pride of Telugu cinema, and being compared with Bollywood&rsquo;s Badshah itself is a matter of pride,&rdquo;\r\nHe continued &ldquo;That&rsquo;s unfair &mdash; Dunki was a content-driven film, while Salaar was a high-octane action entertainer. Naturally, the latter had an edge at the box office,&rdquo;\r\nHe concludes &ldquo;With such massive projects, Prabhas undoubtedly has the edge right now. He enjoys pan-India &mdash; even pan-world &mdash; following. But as always, stardom is cyclical. Today it&rsquo;s Prabhas; tomorrow, another could rise. For now, both stand tall as the true faces of Indian cinema,&rdquo;\r\n<div></div>
