Prabhas is deep into shooting for Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Spirit and Hanu Raghavapudi's Fauji simultaneously, unmindful of the searing heat in Hyderabad.

He has been rushing from one location to another, triggering some concern for his health among his team because of the frenetic pace coupled with soaring temperatures. After the colossal failure of The Raja Saab, the actor has taken full control of the schedules of his films, down to the details of shooting dates allotted to each project, monitoring them himself.

Vivek Oberoi, who is currently shooting with Prabhas, says the Telugu actor's tenacity is impressive. "His discipline, quiet efficiency no matter what the environmental conditions, and a complete lack of starry airs, not to mention the food that he brings on location, are inspiring." Prabhas is determined to complete both Fauji and Spirit on schedule - balancing a period backdrop in one and a futuristic world in the other.
