The Raja Saab OTT release: Prabhas' horror comedy to premiere on Netflix after its theatrical run, but there's a twist

The Raja Saab OTT release: Prabhas will soon be seen in The Raja Saab, one of the biggest films of the year. The horror comedy is set to hit the screens in December. The Telugu film will also be dubbed and released in Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam and Kannada. Amid the wait for the biggie, exciting details have emerged about its OTT release. According to Always Bollywood, a handle on X (formerly known as Twitter) that tracks entertainment news, Netflix has acquired the digital rights of the film for Rs 100 crore. This, however, is for the Hindi version only. This means the Hindi version will be available on Netflix after its run in theatres. The Raja Saab plot and cast explored The Raja Saab is a horror comedy directed by Maruthi. The film's plot is still under wraps. However, the teaser suggests that it will centre on the events that unfold when the protagonist is haunted by the ghost of his paternal grandfather. It will also feature a liberal dose of action, comedy and glamour. The Raja Saab features Prabhas in a new avatar. The mass hero is best known for his work in films such as Baahubali, Salaar, and the Nag Ashwin-helmed Kalki 2898 AD. He will be seen with Sanjay Dutt in the biggie. The Bollywood star is known for his work in films such as Khal Nayak and KGF Chapter 2. The Raja Saab also features Nidhi Agerwal and Malavika Mohanan in the lead. The film's music is composed by S Thaman. Will Prabhas make it three in a row with The Raja Saab? The Raja Saab comes at a time when Prabhas is going through a terrific phase on the work front. He scored a big hit with Kalki 2898 AD. The dystopian action drama featured him as a bounty hunter and marked his first collaboration with legends such as Amitabh Bachchan and Kamal Haasan. It grossed over Rs 1,000 crore globally. This was his second blockbuster after Salaar (2023). The action earned Rs 700 crore at the box office on a budget of Rs 270 crore to emerge. It remains to be seen whether The Raja Saab helps him keep the momentum going when it arrives in theatres on December 5.

Blockbuster if Jr NTR, Prabhas was in cameo role, broke several records after release, can you guess the name?

In the South, whenever a film featuring a relatively lesser-known hero needs attention, it's common to see cameos by big stars. Many times, these stars appear in films simply as a gesture of friendship. But did you know that even a superstar like Prabhas once did a cameo in a film? He played a very small role – so small that most people might not even realise it was him. You're probably wondering – Where exactly was Prabhas in the film? Well, let us tell you. At the beginning of the movie, when the name of the production house, Vishwamitra Creations, appears on the screen, a sage is shown who makes a mistake and then raises his kamandal (water pot) toward the sky. That sage was played by none other than Prabhas. Where was Prabhas in Yamadonga movie? Prabhas may have played a small role in the film, but it was certainly impactful. In Yamadonga , the 2007 film directed by S.S. Rajamouli, Jr. NTR played the lead role of Raja. Mohan Babu portrayed the powerful character of Yamraj, while Mamta Mohandas and Priyamani appeared as the female leads. In the movie, Prabhas appears for just a few seconds. To be specific, he wasn't actually part of the main film but featured in a test shoot for the role of Vishwamitra. So, in Yamadonga, Prabhas made a brief guest appearance. The film was inspired by the 1977 classic Yamagola. The plot follows Raja, a thief who is killed by his rivals. His soul then travels to Naraka (hell), where he must face judgment for his sins at the hands of Yama, the Hindu god of death and justice. Yamadonga's box office collection Yamadonga received positive response from the audience and approximately collected Rs 47.60 crore worldwide. This film is also the highest-grossing Telugu film of the year of 2007. The film won four Nandi Awards while Jr NTR went on to win the Filmfare Award for Best Actor – Telugu.
