The much-anticipated teaser of ‘The Raja Saab’, the upcoming film featuring pan-India actor Prabhas, is likely to be released by the end of May, according to reports circulating on fan pages and entertainment forums. While there has been no official confirmation from the production team, sources familiar with the matter suggest the teaser is ready and an announcement may be imminent.
Directed by Maruthi and produced by TG Vishwa Prasad under the People Media Factory banner, The Raja Saab is positioned as a romantic horror-comedy—an uncommon genre mix in mainstream Telugu cinema. The film stars Prabhas in a dual role and features Malavika Mohanan, Nidhhi Agerwal, and Riddhi Kumar in key roles. There is also speculation that actress Nayanthara may make a special appearance, although this remains unconfirmed.
The narrative is centred on a man returning to his ancestral property in an attempt to resolve financial difficulties, only to uncover supernatural elements tied to the residence. The storyline is expected to blend horror, humour, and emotional drama, with music composed by S Thaman.
Initially set for a release on April 10, 2025, the movie has been postponed as it waits for its pending post-production activities and scheduling issues, particularly in terms of Prabhas’s availability. The actor is said to be currently on a break and is set to resume work once back in Hyderabad.
Industry insiders have pegged the budget of the film at around Rs 200–450 crore, reflecting its high production standards and visual goals. With its genre and starcast, the film is likely to create a huge market span across regions.
With Prabhas currently heading other big projects such as Kalki 2898 AD, The Raja Saab is watched with great anticipation by both the trade and fans. The release of the teaser is expected to give direction to the film and maybe a new release calendar.
