Anushka Shetty's mother wants a groom like Prabhas for her daughter

Anushka Shetty and Prabhas' wedding rumours have been around for quite some time now. The actors have worked together in SS Rajamouli's magnum opus Baahubali series.

Both Prabhas and Anushka haven't denied the speculations, which is why these rumours continue to frequently surface on both Tamil and Telugu media.

Now, Anushka's mother Prafulla Shetty's comment has again become a fodder for rumour mills after she stated that she wants someone like Prabhas to marry her daughter.

"They both are stars and have acted together. I would love to get Prabhas like Mr Perfect for Anushka but they are just good friends. Stop spreading rumours about their marriage," she said.

Although Prafulla Shetty has refuted the rumours about the relationship, the very mention of Prabhas has given reasons for the rumour mongers to assume that the actors are more than just friends.

Usually, celebrities keep their relationships a secret until they are engaged. As a result, the clarification by Anushka's mother has not made much difference as gossip columns in Telugu and Tamil media continue to speculate about their relationship.

On the other side, Krishnam Raju, actor and uncle of Prabhas, said earlier that the bride hunt was on and the family was waiting for the Baahubali star to give green signal for his wedding.

"The family has shortlisted a slew of profiles for Prabhas and is ready to get him hitched but the family is only waiting for Prabhas' nod. If Prabhas gives his go ahead, the family is very much ready to take the things forward and make the wedding arrangements in a lavish way," Gulte quoted Krishnam Raju as saying.
