Prahlad (film)

Prahlad is the title of several films, primarily within Indian cinema, often based on the Hindu mythological figure Prahlad, a devotee of Lord Vishnu known for his unwavering faith and defiance of his demon king father, Hiranyakashipu. Adaptations frequently depict the story of Prahlad's devotion, Hiranyakashipu's persecution, and Vishnu's intervention in the form of Narasimha (the man-lion avatar).

Several versions of the Prahlad story have been produced in different Indian languages and time periods, including:

• Telugu-language films titled Bhakta Prahlada, often focusing on the devotional aspect.
• Hindi-language films adapting the mythological tale.

Each film adaptation may vary slightly in its narrative approach, specific details included, and the actors who portray the key characters. However, the core narrative of Prahlad's devotion and triumph over adversity remains consistent.
