Rebel Star Prabhas is all set to bring a refreshing twist to his on-screen persona with the much-anticipated horror-fantasy film The Raja Saab. The buzz is palpable, as the film has secured a prominent spot on IMDb’s prestigious list of Most Awaited Indian Movies of 2025, rubbing shoulders with heavyweight titles like Coolie and War 2.

With The Raja Saab, Prabhas, who is well-known for his extravagant parts in epic pan-India spectacles, departs from the high-stakes drama in favour of a genre-defying blend of vintage horror, oddball scares, breezy romance, and light-hearted comedy.

Fans have already been enthralled by the film's endearing reinvention of the superstar, which was directed by Maruthi. Viewers are excited to see this new side of the Baahubali and Kalki 2898 AD star because of the captivating first-look posters and the promise of a comic-horror fantasy.

However, Prabhas is not the only person who commands attention. Other well-known films on IMDb's list are War 2 and Coolie, both of which are causing a great deal of excitement among moviegoers nationwide.

Coolie, which is anticipated to be a multilingual action drama with emotional depth, represents the ground-breaking partnership between director Lokesh Kanagaraj and megastar Rajinikanth.

Pooja Hegde, Shruti Haasan, Sathyaraj, Kishore, and Soubin Shahir are among the film's powerful cast members. It is also rumoured to feature special cameos from Aamir Khan, Nagarjuna, and Upendra, making it one of 2025's most anticipated releases.

Meanwhile, the slick premise and star-studded lead duo of Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR are making headlines for War 2, the next explosive chapter in YRF's spy universe. The film, which was directed by Ayan Mukerji of Brahmāstra fame, promises thrilling action, far-flung locales, and a huge confrontation that has fans in a frenzy. As information from global sets begins to surface, expectations are soaring.

In a lineup of otherwise intense dramas and action spectacles, it stands out due to its unique blend of horror, humour, and heart, as well as Prabhas' captivating presence. Everything about the movie, including its genre, soundtrack, and images, suggests a unique cinematic experience.

The Raja Saab, which is being produced by TG Vishwa Prasad under the People Media Factory banner, will be available in five languages on December 5, 2025: Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam. With a production scale that strives for grandeur and music composed by Thaman S, the film is forming into a full-fledged cinematic experience rather than merely a theatrical release.

As the tone for what is expected to be a vibrant year in Indian cinema is set by IMDb's list, one thing is clear—The Raja Saab is right at the centre of that excitement, promising a unique and entertaining journey for audiences everywhere.
