Box office collection: Prabhas's 'The Raja Saab' struggles to shine
The horror-comedy The Raja Saab, starring Prabhas, hasn't quite lived up to the hype since its January 9 release.
Despite a strong cast and big expectations, the film earned mixed-to-negative reviews and has struggled to cross ₹150cr in India—netting ₹146cr across all languages so far.
Even worldwide, it's made ₹208.35cr, which is still below what fans expected from a Prabhas movie.
Film likely to stream on JioCinema and Hotstar soon
Even with stars like Malavika Mohanan and Sanjay Dutt on board, audiences just didn't connect with the story or visual effects.
Social media reactions have been pretty blunt—a viewer on X summed it up saying "The Raja Saab is a disappointing film that works neither as a horror film nor as a comedy. #Prabhas tries hard, and a few scenes are enjoyable only because of him, but even those moments can't save the film..."
If you're curious anyway, The Raja Saab is likely to hit JioHotstar by February 6.
