Record Business Happening For Raja Saab: What Next?

Prabhas and Maruti are collaborating for Raja Sahib, which is preparing for its arrival in theatres on January 9 ahead of the Sankranti season. Meanwhile, the film has started to complete the theatrical business already, and here is a look at the kind of numbers that it is generating.

Reportedly, Raja Saab is generating extraordinary business in the Telugu states, setting new records even before release. Trade reports confirm that the film has already crossed ₹130 crore in pre release business in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, putting it in the elite list of films that achieve such massive numbers before hitting theatres.

The craze is strongest in the Nizam region, where the rights have reportedly sold for around ₹70 crore, showcasing the solid demand for a Prabhas commercial entertainer. Overall theatrical business in the Telugu states is estimated to touch nearly ₹200 crore, making it one of the biggest pre release deals ever for a Prabhas film after his pan India blockbusters.

These numbers clearly show the confidence distributors have in the film’s content, scale, and star power. With Prabhas leading the project and Maruthi presenting him in a fresh mass entertaining avatar, expectations have become sky high.

If The Raja Saab opens to positive word of mouth, these huge pre release figures suggest it could emerge as one of the biggest theatrical hits in the Telugu states.
