Prabhas and Prashanth Neel teamed up for Salaar which was a decent fare at the box office, and a sequel was announced even before Salaar’s release.
After the movie’s release, many websites reported that plans for the sequel had been shelved.

The real news is that the shoot for Salaar 2 did take place but without Prashanth Neel and Prabhas. According to Bollywood media, shooting was limited to a few scenes with kids over a 4-5 day period.
Why these scenes were shot without the presence of even the director remains a big puzzle.

Currently, Prabhas is focused only on Maruthi’s Raja Saab and Hanu Raghavapudi’s Fauji.
Meanwhile, Prashanth Neel is fully occupied with NTR’s film, a massive-budget project expected to remain in production for a year.
After NTR’s film, Prashanth Neel plans to turn his attention to KGF: Chapter 3. Yash is also scheduled to complete Toxic and Ramayana before joining the sets of KGF: Chapter 3.
As of now, Salaar 2 is unlikely to happen for at least the next 3-4 years.
