From creating controversies to forging new friendships and relationships, Karan Johar's chat show Koffee With Karan has consistently made headlines. Similarly, when the team of Baahubali—Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, and director S. S. Rajamouli—arrived for the sixth edition of the show, it was all about fun and candid moments.

During the conversation with host Karan Johar, Rana Daggubati grabbed attention when he named Katrina Kaif as the person he would like to set up with Prabhas.

Rana Daggubati wants to set up Prabhas with Katrina Kaif

In 2018, Rana Daggubati, along with his Baahubali director SS Rajamouli and co-star Prabhas, appeared on the controversial chat show Koffee With Karan. While the entire episode showcased the trio at their most candid, one particular incident caught everyone's attention.

Karan Johar asked Rana who would he choose if he had to set up Prabhas with any actress from the Hindi film industry. The Leader actor was quick to reply with Katrina Kaif's name.

Further, the My Name Is Khan director asked Prabhas if he approved of his co-star's choice. However, the Salaar actor cheekily passed off the question, saying that it was Rana's question to answer.

When Prabhas was asked a similar question about who he wanted to set up Daggubati with, he replied with Trisha's name and jokingly asked Rana to go back to his previous relationship.

Although Daggubati and Trisha had never confirmed their relationship earlier, it was in this episode that he revealed he had dated the Leo actress but things didn't work out between them. Later, Rana exchanged wedding vows with his girlfriend Miheeka Bajaj in 2020. On the other hand, Prabhas is rumored to be dating Anushka Shetty

What’s next for Prabhas?

Prabhas was last seen in Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD. The epic sci-fi film was released on June 27, 2024, and featured Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, and Disha Patani in pivotal roles. The Rebel Star will also be seen in the sequel of the film, as confirmed by the makers.
