After several delays faced during production, the makers have finally been in full swing promoting their new mega budget horror comedy starring Prabhas in multiple roles. According to recent reports, the film is on its way to get censored this week, almost three weeks before release. The team is doing this to avoid any further delays as there are many films eyeing the same Sankranthi release weekend of January 2026. 

Actor Nidhhi Agerwal was surrounded by a large crowd at Hyderabad’s Lulu Mall during the launch of a song from her upcoming film The Raja Saab, prompting questions about crowd control and event safety. Videos of the incident, widely shared on social media, show the actor appearing visibly distressed as fans surged around her, attempting to take photographs and move closer.

The promotional event, which was attended by Agerwal and her co-star Prabhas, drew hundreds of people to the mall for the launch of the song Sahana Sahana. What was intended as a brief public appearance quickly escalated as the crowd swelled, leaving the actor hemmed in on all sides. In footage circulating online, Agerwal can be seen struggling to make her way through the gathering as fans pressed in, breaching her personal space.

The trailer of Prabhas' Telugu film The Raja Saab was released on the evening of September 29, where fans of the actor got to witness the dual sides of their star. The film, which features Prabhas in two roles, showed us glimpses of his contrasting characters in the trailer. As the younger guy who has to navigate a house of horrors, Prabhas is suave and funny. "I must do something unforgettable. Everyone must be stunned thinking 'how this guy pulled it off, '" he says in the trailer.

But in his secondary role, Prabhas appears with silver hair and a devilish grin plastered on his face. "I'm the demon," he says, smoking a cigar.  The film, directed by Maruthi, will be out in theatres on January 9, 2026. The trailer also features other prominent actors such as Sanjay Dutt, Boman Irani, and Zareena Wahab.
