Speculations have been growing on the internet regarding the potential replacement of Suriya in the mythological epic 'Karna'.

It is being said that Prabhas may be approached for the role of Karna owing to his star power.

This decision comes amidst Suriya's underwhelming performance in Kanguva which failed to capture the hearts of the audience, especially in the northern belt.

The increasing concerns ultimately led to the shelving of 'Karna', originally helmed by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra and backed by Excel Entertainment.

The filmmakers are eyeing Prabhas as a commercially viable option, owing to his high bankability. However, concerns regarding the star's already existing role of Karna in the Kalki franchise have created doubts.

While some seem concerned of risking creative overlap by playing the same character in two different films, others have put their trust in the actor, saying that he would ensure justice to both the roles.

One user said, "Prabhas is synonymous with larger-than-life characters; why not let him redefine Karna twice?", while another showed criticism as he commented, "Doesn't this limit his versatility as an actor?"
