Prabhas Returns to Comedy in Horror-Entertainer The Raja Saab, Eyeing December 2025 Release

Fans of Prabhas have reason to rejoice as the Rebel Star gears up to showcase his comedic flair in the upcoming horror-comedy The Raja Saab. After a string of action-heavy films, Prabhas will be seen embracing lighter, humorous shades in this much-anticipated entertainer directed by Maruthi.

Buzz around the film has intensified following a recent report by News18, suggesting that The Raja Saab is eyeing a theatrical release on December 5, 2025. While the official release date is yet to be confirmed by the makers, fans are hopeful for an announcement soon—possibly alongside a long-awaited teaser.

Set against a supernatural backdrop, The Raja Saab features Prabhas in a dual role. The story revolves around a young man’s attempt to reclaim his ancestral property—an old, rundown cinema theatre named Raja Deluxe—as a means to resolve his financial woes. But things take an unexpected turn when mysterious, otherworldly elements linked to the theatre begin to unfold, plunging the protagonist into a chilling and comic adventure.

Originally scheduled for an April 10, 2025 release, the film’s timeline was pushed due to extended post-production efforts. However, insiders reveal that the team is currently focused on refining the final cut to ensure a polished product, with a revised teaser expected soon.

The Raja Saab is being positioned as a pan-India release, set to hit screens in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada, aiming for a wide national reach. The cast includes Malavika Mohanan, Nidhhi Agerwal, and Riddhi Kumar in key roles, while Bollywood icon Sanjay Dutt adds gravitas with a significant part. The music is composed by SS Thaman, whose score is expected to elevate both the thrills and laughs of the narrative.

With its unique blend of horror, comedy, nostalgia, and Prabhas’s mass appeal, The Raja Saab promises to be one of the most entertaining releases of the year—ushering the star into a refreshing new territory just in time for the festive season.
