The Raja Saab Box Office: The Struggle Is Real For Prabhas-Starrer

Hyderabad, January 13 - Can you imagine that a film, which opened to 100+ crores gross, would be struggling to even make double of it? Well, it is happening with Prabhas-fronted The Raja Saab, which is in free-fall mode after the big start. And this is not just about this movie only; most of the top Telugu stars' films lose their way if they fail to excite the audience. The Raja Saab, directed by Maruthi, had the opening of 100+ crores gross, but it soon became a thing of the past as daily collection dropped below the 10 crores mark on its 4th day itself. Had it been any other language film, the collection would have been doubled up by now, which is not the case with Telugu films. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) After opening to 100+ crores, The Raja Saab dropped by over 50% on Friday, and another over 26% on Saturday to close the opening weekend at around 160 crores worldwide. The weekend trend itself suggested that the film would struggle to sustain, and the Monday collection proved that with over 65% drop as it collected just around 8.50 crore. With 4 days of collection standing around 169+ crores, The Raja Saab is struggling to reach the 200 crores mark, which is not a milestone anymore for top stars. The Sankranthi holidays may still take it past the double century, but that won't be enough, as it needs way more than that to justify the big budget and star power. The Raja Saab needs to gross over 400 crores worldwide to break-even and emerge as a box office hit. However, given the current trend, the film is likely to finish with a little over half of its target. The film will end up as Prabhas' second-lowest-grossing title since the COVID-19 pandemic, only ahead of Radhe Shyam. Stay tuned...

Mana shankaraVaraprasad Garu Leads Ticket Sales with Mammoth Opening; Dhurandhar's Day 38 Hold Continues to Amaze

The latest 24-hour ticket sales data from BookMyShow provides a clear picture of the current box office hierarchy, highlighting a massive new opening, the incredible staying power of an all-time blockbuster, and the struggles of underperforming films. The new release, ManashankarVaraprasad, has expectedly taken the box office by storm, while the veteran Dhurandhar continues to post phenomenal numbers deep into its theatrical run. The biggest story from the latest trends is the sensational start for ManashankarVaraprasad Garu, which has translated its massive pre-release buzz into phenomenal box office numbers. The colossal sale of 488K tickets on BookMyShow perfectly foreshadowed the bumper opening. As per the official figures, its Day 1 India Net collection (including premieres) stands at a spectacular ₹37.1 Cr. This translates to a phenomenal India Gross of ₹45 Cr. The film has also stormed the international box office, kicking off its run with an impressive ₹22 Cr from overseas markets. This has propelled its total worldwide gross on its opening day to a staggering ₹67 Cr, setting the stage for one of the biggest opening weekends of the year. The film is clearly the undisputed top choice for moviegoers. In what can only be described as a historic feat, Dhurandhar continues to be a box office force even on its 38th day (D38). The film sold an astonishing 43.5K tickets in the last 24 hours, a figure that is higher than some films in their opening weekend. This demonstrates the film's unprecedented hold and cements its status as a true history-maker. With its worldwide gross already past ₹1259.5 Cr and its India Net collection soaring above ₹808 Cr, this continued audience interest ensures its record-breaking run is far from over. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Among the other films, the performance of the Prabhas-starrer The Raja Saab is a major cause for concern. On its crucial first Monday (D4), the film managed to sell only 82.2K tickets. For a film of this massive scale and star power, such a figure indicates a very poor hold after the opening weekend and suggests it has failed to meet the colossal expectations. This trend points towards a significant underperformance. In comparison, Parasakthi has had a very weak run, with ticket sales at a low 38.4K on its third day (D3).Meanwhile, SarvamMaya is putting up a respectable fight in its own league, selling a steady 28.2K tickets on its 18th day.

The Raja Saab Box Office: Opening Weekend Comparison With Radhe Shyam, Salaar, Kalki, and Adipurush

Hyderabad, January 12 - Pan India superstar Prabhas' The Raja Saab has opened to a 161 crore worldwide over its first weekend, marking an underwhelming start for the romantic horror entertainer. It was an experimental film for Prabhas, who hadn't anything like this before. However, despite the newness, the film failed to make much impact and scored the second-lowest opening weekend for the actor since the Pan India phenomena, Baahubali. When placed alongside Prabhas' biggest post-pandemic openers, The Raja Saab trails significantly behind Kalki 2898 AD, which delivered a thunderous 341.3 crore Friday to Sunday opening weekend, emerging as his biggest post-COVID debut so far. Similarly, Salaar stormed the box office with 325 crore in its first three days, driven by massive fan frenzy, strong mass appeal, and record-breaking openings in the South Indian markets. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Director Om Raut's Adipurush also enjoyed an enormous initial response with 302 crore over its opening weekend, powered largely by pre-release hype and the devotional angle, even though it plummeted after that due to poor word of mouth. In contrast, Raja Saab has opened closer to Radhe Shyam, which collected 130 crore in its opening weekend and struggled to sustain momentum due to negative audience reception. Overall, The Raja Saab finds itself in the mid-range of Prabhas' post-pandemic box office spectrum. Even though it has escaped the bottom standing, the numbers are still not sufficient given the massive budget and starpower of Prabhas. The film is now dependent on the Sankranthi holidays to bring in some numbers and take it to a respectable position. Prabhas' Post-Pandemic Films' Worldwide Opening Weekend S. No. Movie Year Opening Weekend Collection (Fri–Sun) 1 Kalki 2898 AD 2024 ₹341.30 Cr 2 Salaar 2023 ₹325.00 Cr 3 Adipurush 2023 ₹302.00 Cr 4 The Raja Saab 2026 ₹161.00 Cr 5 Radhe Shyam 2022 ₹130.00 Cr

The Raja Saab Box Office: Prabhas Starrer Crosses ₹100 Crore India Net in Opening Weekend;

Prabhas' latest release, The Raja Saab, crossed the ₹100 Crore India Net milestone over its first weekend, but the numbers highlight a concerning trajectory for the high-budget project. While the film collected a total India Net of ₹108.00 Cr (₹129.20 Cr Gross) in three days, the performance was heavily front-loaded and driven primarily by the opening day rush. The daily collection reports indicate a steady downward trend, suggesting that the film is struggling to sustain momentum beyond its core fanbase. The Telugu version remains the primary engine for the film's success, contributing a massive ₹91 Cr to the total India Net. After a solid Day 0 (Premiere) showing of ₹9.15 Cr, the film witnessed a thunderous Day 1 with ₹47 Cr. However, the subsequent days saw a sharp decline; collections dropped to ₹20.65 Cr on Day 2 and further slid to ₹14.2 Cr on Day 3 (Sunday). The absence of a Sunday jump in the home territory is a notable concern, indicating that the film is struggling to find momentum beyond the core fanbase. In the Hindi market, The Raja Saab recorded a total weekend net of ₹15.75 Cr. The film started with ₹6 Cr on Friday, followed by ₹5.1 Cr on Saturday, and concluded the weekend with ₹4.65 Cr on Sunday. Similar to the Telugu version, the Hindi market failed to show any growth on the weekend's final day, signaling that the horror-comedy genre might not be resonating as strongly with the North audience as his previous action spectacles. Meanwhile, the film faced significant challenges in other regional markets, with Tamil (₹0.85 Cr), Kannada (₹0.23 Cr), and Malayalam (₹0.17 Cr) contributing less than 2% to the total domestic net. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   On the global stage, The Raja Saab managed a Worldwide Gross of ₹161.00 Cr in its first three days. The overseas market contributed a steady ₹31.80 Cr ($3.8M approx), which helped bolster the total gross. While these numbers are statistically high, they remain slightly behind the opening weekend benchmarks set by Prabhas' previous blockbusters like Kalki 2898 AD or Salaar, largely due to the film's niche genre and the mixed reception from general audiences. Looking ahead, The Raja Saab faces a steep climb to justify its massive reported budget of ₹300–400 Crores. While reaching the ₹100 Crore India Net milestone is a feat reserved for elite superstars, the persistent downward trend and the absence of a typical Sunday surge have significantly dampened the initial hype. When measured against the astronomical benchmarks set by Prabhas' previous blockbusters like Kalki 2898 AD and Salaar, this performance appears muted, suggesting that the horror-comedy concept has struggled to achieve the event film status required for such high stakes. Ultimately, the film's commercial survival now hinges entirely on its weekday sustainability; unless it stabilizes immediately, it faces an uphill battle to recover its heavy investment.

The Raja Saab (Hindi) Box Office: Prabhas' Horror-Comedy Goes Down Again On Day 3

Mumbai, January 12 - The romantic horror comedy The Raja Saab is heading towards a rare failure for Pan India superstar Prabhas at the Hindi box office after the film dropped further on day 3. There seems to be no way for the movie to rebound, given the mixed to negative word of mouth and strong competition from the holdovers. The Raja Saab had an underwhelming opening with approximately 6 crore net. This was only the second film of Prabhas to score below 10 crore net opening day in Hindi since the Covid pandemic. The movie needed big growth on Saturday and Sunday to cover the lost ground, but things got even worse as it dropped further. The first Pan India biggie of the year scored around 5 crore net on Saturday, followed by around 4.65 crores on Sunday, for the cumulative opening weekend of 15.75 crores net, which is disappointing for a movie featuring Prabhas. Ideally, it should have scored at least 30+ crores net opening weekend, but all it could manage was only half of it, due to poor planning and word of mouth. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The Raja Saab will struggle to touch even 50 crores net, and it will most likely fall below this mark. It will be the second-lowest-grossing film for Prabhas in Hindi since he scored breakout success with his first Pan India blockbuster, Baahubali (2015). The lowest Hindi grosser for the actor is Radhe Shyam, which minted just over 20 crore net in 2022. Not only in Hindi, but The Raja Saab is also struggling in the overall scenario. After taking the opening of 100 crore net, the film has dropped heavily over the weekend to score just around 60 crores gross in the next 2 days. The Sankranthi holiday period is expected to bring some footfalls, but once this period is over, it will be a real struggle for the movie to sustain. Stay tuned...

The Raja Saab vs Dhurandhar Box Office: Why Prabhas' New Release is Struggling to Beat a Month-Old Movie in Hindi

The box office is currently witnessing a rare phenomenon where a month-old veteran is outperforming a star-studded new release in a key market. Prabhas' latest outing, The Raja Saab, arrived with massive pan-India expectations but is finding the going tough in the Hindi belt. Meanwhile, Ranveer Singh's spy thriller Dhurandhar, which entered its sixth week, continues to show remarkable resilience. The most striking takeaway from the current box office reports is the Hindi net collection. On its third day (Sunday), The Raja Saab managed to collect approximately ₹4.65 Cr in the Hindi market. In a sharp contrast, Dhurandhar—on its 37th day—earned an estimated ₹5.75 Cr. It is highly unusual for a new film led by a Pan-India superstar to be outpaced in its first weekend by a movie that has been in theaters for over five weeks. The Raja Saab's Hindi journey started with ₹6 Cr on Day 1, followed by ₹5.1 Cr on Day 2, and the decline to ₹4.65 Cr on Day 3 sis particularly concerning, as the film missed out on the standard Sunday surge usually seen at the box office. While the Hindi numbers tell a story of struggle, the overall India Net and Worldwide figures for The Raja Saab remain respectable, largely due to Prabhas' iron grip on the Telugu market. In its first three days, the movie has clocked: India Net Collection: ₹108.00 Cr India Gross Collection: ₹129.20 Cr Worldwide Collection: ₹161.00 Cr Overseas Collection: ₹31.80 Cr These figures are a testament to Prabhas' massive fanbase, which ensured a strong opening despite the hurdles. However, for a film reportedly mounted on a budget of ₹300–400 Cr, these numbers need significant sustainability, which is currently under threat. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The primary reason for The Raja Saab's struggle in the Hindi belt appears to be the poor word of mouth.Unlike Prabhas' recent hits like Kalki 2898 AD or Salaar, which offered high-octane action or grand sci-fi, The Raja Saab is a horror-comedy that many critics have labeled as too regional or outdated. Audience feedback has been critical of the concept lack, uneven VFX, and a screenplay that fails to grip the viewer.Many North Indian viewers, who were expecting an event film, found the horror elements lacking logic and the comedy failing to land. On the other side of the spectrum, Dhurandhar has set a benchmark for consistency.Released only in the Hindi language, the film achieved the rare feat of maintaining double-digit daily collections for 28 consecutive days. Even with the arrival of a major competitor, Dhurandhar saw a 69% jump in its sixth Saturday, proving that solid word-of-mouth can sustain a film long after the initial hype fades. While The Raja Saab is fighting a battle of damage control in the North, Dhurandhar is comfortably sitting on a domestic net of over ₹805 Cr, making it the most successful solo Hindi release in recent history. The comparison highlights a clear divide: while stardom can guarantee a ₹100 Cr opening weekend, longevity is driven by content.The Raja Saab remains afloat on the strength of the Telugu states, but its inability to surpass a 37-day-old Dhurandhar in the Hindi belt serves as a reality check for the film's pan-India appeal.

The Raja Saab : Prabhas Starrer Secures the 10th Spot in Tollywood's Elite ₹100 Crore Global Openers Club

Prabhas's latest release, The Raja Saab, has officially entered the list of Telugu films achieving a ₹100 crore+ worldwide gross on Day 1. This marks the sixth time a film headlined by Prabhas has reached this milestone, a record for any Indian actor. According to current data, the film ranks 10th among the highest-opening Telugu films of all time, joining the ranks of major releases such as Pushpa 2 and RRR. Leading the pack of these elite openers is Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2: The Rule, which remains an untouchable phenomenon. The film scripted history by grossing ₹ 275.20 crore worldwide on its opening day, the highest ever for an Indian film. Beyond its opening, Pushpa 2 became an all-time blockbuster, crossing the ₹1000 crore mark in a record 7 days. Its Hindi version alone rewrote the record books, surpassing Baahubali 2 to become the highest-grossing Hindi film ever. Following closely is S.S. Rajamouli’s global sensation RRR, which opened to ₹223 crore worldwide. Beyond its ₹1,200+ crore lifetime gross, the film achieved significant cultural impact, culminating in an Academy Award for the song Naatu Naatu. Prabhas's own filmography dominates the remainder of this high-achiever list. Baahubali 2: The Conclusion remains the ultimate benchmark for Indian cinema, having opened to ₹217 crore and becoming the first film to cross ₹1,000 crore in net collections within India. His more recent outings, Kalki 2898 AD and Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire, also posted historic opening day figures of ₹177 crore and ₹158 crore respectively. While Kalki drew praise for its futuristic vision and ₹1042 crore lifetime gross, Salaar was lauded for its raw action and strong performance in mass circuits, particularly in the Telugu states. The list also features high-octane releases from other Telugu titans. OG (They Call Him OG), starring Pawan Kalyan, delivered a staggering ₹144 crore worldwide opening, proving the actor's immense drawing power despite a limited promotional window. Jr NTR's Devara: Part 1 also made a significant mark with a ₹142 crore global start, performing exceptionally well in international markets like Japan. Even films that faced critical hurdles, such as Adipurush and Saaho, showcased the sheer pull of a Telugu star on Day 1, with both crossing the ₹100 crore gross mark globally before their trajectories were affected by mixed word-of-mouth.

The Raja Saab (Hindi) Box Office: Prabhas-Starrer Drops On Day 2 As Weak Trend Continues

Mumbai, January 11 - Superstar Prabhas' romantic horror comedy The Raja Saab dropped on its second day at the Hindi box office, which is not a good sign. After the underwhelming opening day of 6 crore net, the movie needed a big jump to cover the lost ground, but instead, it went down to collect around 5 crore net. The total collection of the film is around 11 crores net (13+ crores gross) after 2 days. It would have been a good collection for most of the South Indian actors, but not for Prabhas, who has proved his mettle at the Hindi box office in the past with multiple big grossers since Baahubali days. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Ideally, The Raja Saab should have scored more than 20 crores net to justify the starpower, but the lack of promotion and poor word of mouth have reduced it to half of it after 2 days. As said, there is an audience for the genre, but the issue is that the makers didn't even try to create awareness among the Hindi audiences, and completely relied on the stardom of Prabhas. The Sankranthi holiday period might help the movie to bring in some numbers, but considering the weak trend, it is going to be hard for the film to sustain the collection. Prabhas has consistently delivered 100 crores grossers in Hindi, but The Raja Saab is unlikely to get there unless some miracle happens. Meanwhile, the Maruthi directorial also had a big drop at the worldwide box office on the second day. After opening to 100+ crores gross, the film plummeted by 65% to score around 35 crores gross worldwide, pushing total worldwide cume to 135 crores. The overall trend remains weak, not just in Hindi but in other languages, and this is not good for the film's box office prospects. Stay tuned...

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The word-of-mouth for the film remains highly polarized.While fans are celebrating Prabhas's vintage energy, his comedic timing, and his dual-shaded performance, critics have raised concerns regarding the film's slow pacing in the first half and the quality of the VFX.Reports suggest that in response to audience feedback, director Maruthi has already begun implementing minor trims and adding a few old look scenes of Prabhas to enhance the theatrical experience.

The Raja Saab Box Office (Hindi): Prabhas-Starrer Opens Above Baahubali and Radhe Shyam, But Stays Well Below Double-Digit Mark

Mumbai, January 10 - Superstar Prabhas-fronted The Raja Saab has underperformed at the Hindi box office, staying well below the double-digit mark. This makes it the first film of the actor since Radhe Shyam (2022), and only the second since Baahubali (2015), to not have a double-digit start in the dubbed version. Directed by Maruthi, the romantic horror comedy scored approximately 6 crore net on its first day in Hindi, beating Radhe Shyam's 4.80 crores net start. The opening of The Raja Saab is very much in line with the trade projections, but on the face value, it is an underwhelming start given the way Prabhas' films have performed in the past. Prabhas is easily the most popular South Indian actor when it comes to the Hindi market, as his films have consistently performed well since Baahubali. However, the continued release delay and the lack of promotion eventually came to bite the film's box office prospects, even though it opened better than most of the dubbed South Indian films. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) A decade ago, Baahubali took the opening of 5+ crore net in Hindi with much lower ticket prices and higher taxes, so in that sense, the opening of The Raja Saab is poor as it has barely managed to cross the actor's first Pan India blockbuster. The horror comedy has its audience, but again, the makers didn't promote it well to cash in the opportunity. Meanwhile, at the worldwide box office, the film managed to take the opening of 100 crores gross, driven by good performance in the Telugu states. It is the first 100 crores Indian grosser of 2026, and the 6th film of Prabhas to score a 100 crore opening, making him the only Indian actor to achieve the feat. Stay tuned...

The Raja Saab Box Office: Prabhas Scripts History as the Only Indian Actor with Six ₹100 Crore Worldwide Openers Amidst Mixed Reviews

Rebel Star Prabhas has once again demonstrated his unparalleled box office pull as his latest release, The Raja Saab, officially crossed the ₹100 crore mark at the worldwide box office on its opening day. With this achievement, Prabhas has become the first and only Indian actor to have six films that have debuted with over ₹100 crore globally, a feat that remains unmatched in the history of Indian cinema. Despite the massive numbers, the film's reception has been polarized, relying heavily on the lead actor's stardom rather than critical acclaim. The horror-comedy, directed by Maruthi, collected approximately ₹100.90 crore worldwide on Day 1. While the Telugu states contributed the lion's share of this total, the overseas markets also showed strong performance. This opening places The Raja Saab alongside Prabhas' previous heavyweights like Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, Kalki 2898 AD, Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire, Saaho, and Adipurush. However, unlike the Baahubali series or Kalki 2898 AD, the initial momentum for The Raja Saab is being met with significant resistance from critics and audiences alike. The early word of mouth for the film is largely mixed to negative. Reports from several centers suggest a poor response regarding the film's execution. Critics have pointed out that the screenplay suffers from a very slow pace, particularly in the first half, making it a tedious watch for general audiences. Furthermore, a common grievance among viewers is the lack of logic in the horror elements and the narrative transitions. While Prabhas' screen presence and comic timing are being appreciated by fans, the overall consensus suggests that the writing fails to match the scale of the production. As the film enters its crucial first weekend, the focus shifts to whether it can sustain its momentum. With the mixed talk spreading, the upcoming weekdays will be a major test for the film's longevity. Currently, the movie is riding on the high of the Prabhas brand, but for it to reach a Hit or Blockbuster status, it will need to overcome the hurdle of poor critical reviews.

The Raja Saab Box Office Worldwide: Prabhas-Starrer Horror-Comedy Clocks 100 Crore Opening

Hyderabad, January 9 - Pan-India superstar Prabhas has once again muscled his star power with his latest romantic horror comedy The Raja Saab, which has taken an excellent opening of nearly 100 crores gross at the worldwide box office, despite mixed to negative reviews and word of mouth. Directed by Maruthi, The Raja Saab has clocked an estimated 75 gross in India, depending on the offline shows. The domestic start is once again led by the Telugu states, where the movie has grossed over 55 crores, including the premiere collection of over 8 crores. At the Overseas box office, the film is looking to collect in the 25-30 crores range, for the worldwide opening day gross of 100+ crores. With this, it has become the first 100 crores Indian grosser of 2026, and the 6th film of Prabhas to do so. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The Raja Saab had collected over 50 crores gross in its worldwide pre-sales for the opening day. The numbers could have been higher had the bookings been opened much earlier in India. Still, the advance sales were solid, despite falling short of Prabhas' recent films, such as Kalki 2898 AD and Salaar. As said, the opening of The Raja Saab was purely possible due to the stardom of Prabhas, especially since the initial word of mouth was not looking good after the poor critics' reviews. The advances for tomorrow are decent, given the reception, which indicates a decent hold. It needs to be seen how the movie fares over the Sankranthi festive weekend, which is crucial. Stay tuned...
