In the clip, the veteran actor highlighted that films minting Rs 1000 crore may be routine for Prabhas, as his movies generally earn that much.
"For Prabhas, this may be something of a routine because a lot of his films cross this Rs 1000 crore figure. But for me, I am truly indebted and very grateful to have been made a part of this huge concept called Kalki... I have already seen the film four times... and each time, I have discovered something new, something that I may have missed when I saw it the first time," said Big B.
