Prabhas’ The Raja Saab Set for Sankranthi 2026 – A Festive Box Office War Ahead!
It’s finally official! Pan-India superstar Prabhas is returning to the big screen with his first-ever romantic horror comedy, The Raja Saab. The film is now confirmed to release worldwide on January 9, 2026, as a grand Sankranthi festive treat. Producer TG Vishwa Prasad made the big announcement, sending fans into celebration mode.
Originally planned for a December 5, 2025, release, the movie faced delays due to extensive VFX work and the recent film workers’ strike, forcing the team to postpone. While fans are disappointed about missing a solo release window, the Sankranthi slot promises even bigger attention.
However, the festive season won’t be easy! The Raja Saab will clash with multiple biggies, including Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Mana Shankar Vara Prasad Garu, Ravi Teja 77, Naveen Polishetty’s Anaganaga Oka Raju, and Tamil giants like Vijay’s Jana Nayagan and Sivakarthikeyan’s Parasakthi.
Despite the crowded lineup, trade experts believe Prabhas’ massive fan base, combined with the unique rom-com-horror genre, gives the film a strong edge. With the right word of mouth, The Raja Saab could dominate both domestic and overseas markets during the festive season.
Will Prabhas turn Sankranthi 2026 into his biggest box office victory yet? The stage is set, and fans are eagerly waiting to witness the clash!
