A few days ago, director Maruthi further fuelled excitement among fans eagerly awaiting The Raja Saab by sharing a special message on X. He wrote, "Telugu audience has seen the entertaining version of Prabhas. But Pan India has never. After coming out of the theatre, you will remember Prabhas from this film for many years. The get-up and everything… it is a great episode… and has never been seen on Indian screen.”

The film was initially announced in January 2024 and faced multiple postponements throughout 2025. It is now finally set to hit theatres on January 9.
