The Raja Saab Trailer


Telugu superstar Prabhas is back in the spotlight, and fans couldn’t be more excited. The trailer of his upcoming horror-comedy,

The Raja Saab, dropped on Monday, giving a glimpse of a spooky yet funny ride. After Kalki 2898 AD, the actor had kept a low profile, but this one looks like it’s going to bring him right back to the big screen in style.

Haunted Haveli and Hidden Mysteries

Under Maruthi's direction, the trailer begins with Prabhas inheriting a decaying old mansion. At first, it appears to be a typical property sale, but soon things take a spooky turn. Unusual sounds, flickering lights, and whispers suggest the mansion conceals dark secrets.

In just over three minutes, the trailer successfully delivers both scares and humour, creating an enjoyable mix for viewers.

Prabhas takes on a dual role, adding depth and intrigue, while Sanjay Dutt plays the villain, exuding a menacing aura. The supporting cast is equally impressive, featuring Malavika Mohanan, Nidhhi Agerwal, Boman Irani, Brahmanandam, and Yogi Babu.
