About The RajaSaab

The RajaSaab has been billed as a horror fantasy, and is being hailed as one of the most expensive Indian films ever made. Given that it is Prabhas’ first release since the back-to-back success of Salaar and Kalki 2898 AD, a lot is riding on the film. Directed by Maruthi, The RajaSaab also stars Sanjay Dutt, Nidhhi Agerwal, Malavika Mohanan, Boman Irani, and Riddhi Kumar. The film was shot in a lavish set, one of the biggest in the world, erected on the outskirts of Hyderabad, with the makers creating the film’s haunted haveli from scratch.

The film is scheduled to release worldwide on 9 January 2026, coinciding with Sankranti.
