Prabhudheva started this year with the Tamil comedy film Charlie Chaplin 2, a sequel to the 2002 movie Charlie Chaplin. His recent release, Devi 2, also happens to be a sequel. It's not just his acting projects that are full of sequels, but also his directorials, including Salman Khan-starrer Dabangg 3. He says more than challenges, it's about hard work as people expect more and in return, he tries to give them more.

His 2012 directorial Rowdy Rathore is also expected to get a sequel soon. Asked about the challenges of working on a sequel, Prabhudheva told IANS in a telephonic interview: "Challenges are there, but you have to put in hard work. People expect more. We try to give more. So, there is hard work."
