  • The Raja Saab's box office slows, struggling to cross Rs 200 crore worldwide
  • Mixed reviews and competition impact the film's momentum after a strong opening
  • Prabhas' star power drew crowds, but weekday collections declined sharply

Prabhas’ much-awaited film The Raja Saab opened to strong numbers but is now facing a significant slowdown at the box office. On its second weekend, the film witnessed a steep drop in collections, reflecting mixed audience reception and reduced footfall in theaters.

Despite the initial hype surrounding the star-studded release and festive timing, The Raja Saab is still struggling to cross the Rs 200 crore mark worldwide, a milestone that was expected to be comfortably reached in the film’s second week.

Industry trackers report that on Day 10, the film’s worldwide total hovered just below Rs 200 crore. The first weekend saw a strong opening thanks to Prabhas’ star power, but the film has failed to maintain steady momentum, with weekday collections declining sharply. Single-day earnings over the second weekend were notably lower, indicating waning audience interest and competition from other releases in the same period.

Several factors have contributed to this slowdown. Mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike have impacted the film’s staying power. While the visual effects and certain performances were praised, the storyline and pacing received criticism, which likely discouraged repeat viewership.

Additionally, the Raja Saab faced stiff competition from other Sankranti releases, particularly Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, which has continued to perform strongly, both domestically and internationally.

Despite the drop, the film’s overall run is not considered a failure. Its strong opening has secured a respectable total, and it continues to draw audiences in key Telugu-speaking markets. However, expectations for a blockbuster-level performance have not been fully met, and the film’s final worldwide tally may fall short of initial projections.

The Raja Saab is a Telugu action-comedy film starring Prabhas in the lead role. Released during the Sankranti 2026 festival, the film was highly anticipated due to Prabhas’ pan-Indian appeal. Directed by Suresh Babu, it blends humor, action, and romance, aiming to cater to both family audiences and younger viewers.
