The mind-numbing power of unrelenting violence is on full display in the unapologetically gory Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire. Furthermore, the plot revolves around Khansaar’s vast mythology, which depicts a lawless land ruled by menacing crime lords. The story begins in 1985, when two childhood friends, Deva (Prabhas) and Vardha (PrithvirajSukumaran), are introduced. Vardha’s father (JagapathiBabu) fought his way to the throne by defeating two local rival tribes, and he now rules over this violent city. As the story progresses, this reunion leads to a shocking revelation that threatens to derail their friendship. Overall, Salaar is a very well written movie and it is a must watch for every Prabhas fan.
