Exciting Developments in 'The Raja Saab'

Hyderabad, Dec 31: The anticipation surrounding the horror thriller 'The Raja Saab', directed by Maruthi and starring Prabhas, has intensified with the release of the first look poster featuring actress Riddhi Kumar. She portrays a character named Anitha in this intriguing film.

People Media Factory, the production company behind the project, shared on social media, "Meet ANITHA from the world of #TheRajaSaab. A presence you naturally gravitate towards." This announcement has sparked significant excitement among fans and cinema enthusiasts alike.

The previously released trailer has further fueled interest, showcasing a gripping narrative. It begins with Prabhas being hypnotized by an expert to explore his past, only to encounter a mysterious creature lurking in the shadows.

While the film promises spine-chilling horror, it also incorporates humor, as seen in a scene where Prabhas greets a spirit, humorously referring to it as his grandfather and suggesting introductions to others present. A bewildered VTV Ganesh questions the need for such introductions, to which Prabhas responds, "Then, what are you waiting for? Run!"

The trailer hints at a blend of romance, action, and humor alongside the horror elements. It introduces Sanjay Dutt's character, described as an exorcist, hypnotist, and psychiatrist, who plays mind games with the protagonists.

In a striking moment, Prabhas appears as a demon, confidently declaring, "What's your problem? Am I an ant to sting you when you reach into the anthill? I'm the demon," while stylishly smoking a cigar from an upside-down throne.

With high expectations, 'The Raja Saab' marks Prabhas's venture into the horror genre. Scheduled for release on January 9, 2026, the film features cinematography by Karthik Palani and music by Thaman S.

The cast also includes the talented Malavika Mohanan and Nidhhi Agerwal, promising to bring charm and freshness to the film's eerie yet vibrant atmosphere.
