The Raja Saab promises mystery served with comedy and romance 

Prabhas rules the frame in every minute of the teaser of the upcoming romantic horror-comedy. The film’s premise is set against an abandoned palace identified by a life-size portrait of its last king, played by Sanjay Dutt.

The Rebel star grabs attention with his boyish charm that balances out the horror and mystery of the palace, while his witty one-liners and punchlines drive it home. His vintage looks do all the justice for the role as well.


Prabhas’ fees for The Raja Saab

According to a previous Siasat report, it is believed that Prabhas had significantly reduced his usual remuneration of Rs. 150 crores per film for The Raja Saab. As a result, he has bagged a paycheck of Rs. 100 crores for the Maruthi directorial.

However, these are only reports, and there has been no official confirmation from the actor’s team on this matter.
