Raja Saab Fever Grips Fans as Premier Show Approvals Remain Unclear

With just a few days left for its theatrical release, Raja Saab has become the most talked-about film among movie lovers. Fans are counting every hour as the release date gets closer and the buzz around the premiere shows is growing rapidly. Social media is filled with discussions, predictions and excitement especially about how the film will open at the box office.

The main curiosity right now is about the premiere shows planned for the night of January 8. Fans are closely watching developments in Telangana where permissions for benefit and premiere shows often come at the last moment. This uncertainty has created tension not only among fans but also within trade circles, who are keen to see how the situation unfolds.

Recently, a letter addressed to the state Cinematography Minister has gone viral. The letter requests special ticket prices for the premiere shows of Raja Saab. According to the proposal, multiplex tickets are expected to be priced at ₹1000, while single-screen tickets may go up to ₹800. Along with this, the makers have also asked for a hike in ticket prices for regular shows, explaining the financial and production-related reasons behind the request. This move has triggered strong discussions across the film industry.

In Andhra Pradesh, however, things look much smoother. With several big-budget and dubbed films getting approvals in recent times, there seems to be little resistance for Raja Saab. Trade experts believe the film will release there without major issues. The bigger question remains about benefit shows in the Nizam region, where legal and court-related hurdles have delayed approvals in the past.

Sources suggest that officials are trying to find technical solutions to avoid last-minute problems. Still, there is no clear confirmation yet on how much of the requested ticket hike will be approved. This ongoing suspense is keeping fans anxious.

On the promotional side, the team has already completed all major campaigns. A lively song featuring Prabhas and the three heroines was recently released and received an excellent response online. With promotions creating strong momentum, audiences are now eager to see Prabhas back in full form on the big screen.
