Prabhas said, "When I have you by my side, the person to kill me is not even born." SS Rajamouli said that he often wondered what made Prabhas give 5 years of his life to the movie. He said, "When I was in Mumbai for the trailer launch, I heard the fans screaming for Prabhas. Not in AP but in Mumbai and that was my answer to the question."

Rana Daggubati said about Bhallala Deva's track, "I was so proud when I heard that track. Every minute of the last five years is close to my heart. However many films I do in my future, he will remain my favourite co-star. But, I also felt sad that I wouldn’t be able to go back to Mahishmati. There were even tears in my eyes. Valli ma’am I will miss you the most. Rajamouli sir, thank you so much for casting me as Bhallala Deva as I am not sure I will ever get a character like this in my life.”

The lovely Anushka Shetty said, "All of us have put in so much effort in this film, but it was Prabhas who didn’t do anything else and dedicated 5 years to this film. I am sure all of us have learnt something or the other from each other. I am sure we will make you proud with this project."
