The “Man of Masses,” Prabhas, has once again proved why he is the undisputed king of the box office. His latest cinematic offering, ‘The Raja Saab’, directed by Maruthi, has opened to a thunderous response, shattering records on its very first day. Blending the thrill of horror with the timing of comedy, the film has not only captivated the South Indian audience but has also made a significant dent in the Hindi-speaking belts.
From early morning shows to housefull night screenings, the craze for The Raja Saab was palpable across the nation. While the Telugu market remains the primary powerhouse for the film, the pan-India appeal of Prabhas has ensured strong numbers across all languages, including a solid start in the North Indian markets.
The film’s journey began with high-octane previews, leading into a massive Friday opening. Here is the detailed breakdown:
The Raja Saab has achieved a historic milestone by entering the elite 100-crore club on its opening day itself. The international markets contributed significantly to this massive total.
| Collection Category | Amount (Day 1) |
| India Net Collection | ₹ 63.30 Cr |
| India Gross Collection | ₹ 74.90 Cr |
| Overseas Collection | ₹ 26.00 Cr |
| Worldwide Total Collection | ₹ 100.90 Cr |
Defying the usual trends for dubbed horror-comedies, the Hindi version of the film earned a commendable ₹ 6.15 Cr. This performance highlights Prabhas’s growing stronghold in the Hindi heartland, setting the stage for a massive weekend jump.
Produced on a lavish scale with an estimated budget of ₹400–450 Cr, The Raja Saab is a visual spectacle with a runtime of 3 hours and 10 minutes.
The Verdict:
With a sensational start of over ₹100 crores worldwide, The Raja Saab is on track to become one of the biggest blockbusters of 2026. The positive word of mouth regarding the comedy and Prabhas’s charismatic screen presence suggests that the film will witness even higher numbers over the weekend.
