Hyderabad: South Indian superstar Prabhas, of ‘Baahubali’ fame, ‘adopted’ 1,650 acres of Khazipally Reserve Forest near Hyderabad on Monday.
“I’ve taken the initiative to adopt and develop 1650 acres of Kazipalli Reserve Forest. Having always been a nature lover, I believe this would create an additional lung space for the city,” Prabhas tweeted.
