Hold your breath, Prabhas fans! The king is coming, and this time with a twist never seen before. The buzz is real, the throne is set, and the teaser of The Raja Saab is reportedly hitting our screens by May-end or early June 2025.
From intense action thrillers to high-budget pan-India blockbusters, Prabhas has done it all. But The Raja Saab brings him back in an all-new avatar—charming, eerie, royal, and undeniably powerful. With the first look and teaser just days away, here’s your ultimate guide to what’s brewing inside the world of The Raja Saab.
Prabhas’s Royal Comeback: What Makes ‘The Raja Saab’ So Special?
Let’s be real. Prabhas has a fanbase that defies logic. And with every film, the expectations just skyrocket. While fans loved him in Salaar, Baahubali, and Adipurush, they’re now craving something that balances mass appeal and character-driven storytelling.
Enter: The Raja Saab.
Directed by Maruthi Dasari, known for his commercial entertainers, and produced by People Media Factory, this film promises an unusual blend—a romantic horror drama with Prabhas in a never-seen-before ‘mass + classy’ role. That’s a bold move and one fans have been hungry for.
Teaser Coming Soon: What to Expect?
The teaser of The Raja Saab will likely arrive at the end of May or the first week of June 2025. The caption hints that the teaser opens with “eye-blink shots,” suggesting we’re in for some striking visuals, intense closeups, and a sneak peek into the eerie yet majestic world of The Raja Saab.
The throne. The aura. The eyes. If the visuals we’ve seen so far are any clue, Prabhas is playing a character that’s equal parts haunting and hypnotic.
First Look Recap: The Beast in a Royal Cloak
The first official image of Prabhas from The Raja Saab broke the internet. Draped in a luxurious robe, sitting confidently on a gothic throne, adorned with pearls, and smoking a cigar—Prabhas oozes both danger and charm.
It’s not your usual romantic hero. It’s a man with a mysterious past, maybe even supernatural undertones. Fans are already calling it Prabhas’s most experimental look since Baahubali—and rightly so.
What’s the Film About? Plot Hints and Genre Speculations
While the makers have kept the plot under wraps, sources close to the production hint that The Raja Saab is a mix of romantic horror, action, and dark comedy. That’s right—expect ghosts, grand romance, royal pasts, and possibly some horror-comedy moments.
Maruthi, known for his timing and mass dialogues, has reportedly written a character that plays with duality—royal elegance on one side and haunted intensity on the other.
Think: Bhool Bhulaiyaa meets Baahubali with a dash of Arundhati—but on steroids.
The Cast: Who’s Joining Prabhas in The Raja Saab?
While Prabhas remains the film’s biggest highlight, he’s not alone. The cast includes:

The supporting cast is filled with top-tier comedians and character actors, ensuring the film balances spooky moments with laugh-out-loud humor.
Music & Technical Brilliance: Setting the Mood
The music is being composed by Thaman S, a hitmaker when it comes to elevating mass moments with goosebump-inducing BGM. Expect everything from haunting melodies to high-energy romantic numbers.
Cinematography is being handled by Karthik Palani, whose visuals in Radhe Shyam and Adipurush were standout features. Expect richly detailed palace sets, candle-lit corridors, supernatural settings, and majestic frames.
