The much-awaited teaser of Prabhas’s upcoming horror-romantic comedy The Raja Saab, directed by Maruthi. Finally released on June 16, creating a buzz across the Telugu states. Fans gathered in theatres across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana to catch the first glimpse of the film. Which is now set to hit screens on December 5.
Known for his larger-than-life roles since Baahubali, Prabhas takes on a refreshing new avatar in The Raja Saab as a relatable, next-door guy in a film that mixes romance, folklore, and horror. The teaser, which runs for about two minutes, showcases rich visuals and impressive VFX, teasing a story that walks the line between fantasy and fear.
