As The RajaSaab arrives in cinemas today, the makers had earlier set the mood with a lavish pre-release party in Hyderabad, giving fans and media a sneak peek into the film’s eerie fantasy world.

Prabhas-starrer The RajaSaab has finally released in theatres today, marking one of the most anticipated pan-India releases of the year. Positioned as a horror-fantasy entertainer with a commercial edge, the film has been creating steady buzz across regions. Ahead of its big-screen arrival, the makers hosted a grand pre-release party in Hyderabad, celebrating the journey of the film and building momentum before its release.

A pre-release party that matched the film’s scale
The pre-release celebration was held at a specially constructed RajaSaab set in Hyderabad, spread across an impressive 40,000 square feet. Designed exclusively for the film, the venue allowed media and guests to experience the scale, mood, and visual world of The RajaSaab up close. The event saw the presence of producer Vishwa Prasad, director Maruthi, actors Nidhhi Agerwal and Riddhi Kumar, along with other members of the cast and crew.

Producer Vishwa Prasad on the film’s vision
Speaking at the event, producer Vishwa Prasad reflected on the film’s long journey and creative intent. He shared that the team began working on The RajaSaab nearly three years ago to create a horror-comedy featuring a major pan-India star, while still retaining the genre’s essence. He also spoke about exploring a form of “Mohra horror-fantasy,” a space he believes remains largely untouched in Indian cinema.

Actor Riddhi Kumar thanked the media for their support and spoke about the festive atmosphere at the event. She mentioned that both she and Nidhhi Agerwal chose red sarees as a tribute to Prabhas, fondly referred to as the Rebel Star, adding that the team missed his presence at the celebration.

Nidhhi Agerwal, who plays a key role in the film, described The RajaSaab as one of the most special projects of her career. She spoke about the warmth, respect, and fun she experienced on set, and thanked director Maruthi, the producers, and Prabhas for the opportunity.
