Advance booking for ‘The Raja Saab’ has gathered solid momentum ahead of its theatrical release, signalling a promising start for Prabhas’ much-awaited return to a lighter, mass-friendly genre. The Telugu-language romantic horror comedy, which sees the star in a dual role, is slated to hit cinemas on January 9, 2026.
According to early trends and industry trackers, the film is shaping up for a strong opening day, powered by festive footfall, wide multilingual release and Prabhas’ enduring fan base.

As per Sacnilk reports, ‘The Raja Saab’ has already clocked impressive advance booking numbers across formats and languages. The total all-India advance booking gross stands at ₹3.35 crore, excluding block seats. However, once block seats are factored in, the figure jumps significantly.
The Telugu version has led the charge, as expected, while Hindi shows, particularly premium formats, have also contributed meaningfully.
