Producer Vishwa Prasad spoke at length about the film’s expansive set, designed by Rajeevan, revealing that a barren stretch of land was transformed into one of the largest palace sets ever built in Hyderabad. “We’re talking about deep, symmetrical designs and a massive structure that truly conveys enormity,” he said, adding that audiences would feel the grandeur the moment the film hits the screen.
Highlighting the film’s wide release, the producer noted that The Raja Saab will open on approximately 3,800 to 4,500 screens across North India. “We are also planning a Japanese dub in the next three to six months to tap into Prabhas’ global popularity. Closer home, the film will release in around 300 screens in Telugu and 75 screens in Kannada across Karnataka,” he added.
Director Maruthi spoke about the pressure of presenting Rebel Star Prabhas in a new avatar. “Turning Prabhas into the royal yet rebellious Raja Saab was challenging, but it helped us create a completely different world,” he said. “Prabhas isn’t just a star here—he is a global sweetheart with fans everywhere, including Japan,” Maruthi added, promising a fresh cinematic experience that will stay with audiences long after the credits roll.
Music composer Thaman also shared insights into the film’s soundscape. “The film has a strong period vibe, so I couldn’t go too modern or too old-school. I aimed for a Gen Z–friendly sound that still fits the era. The background score works like dialogue—it speaks and pushes the story forward,” he said.
The makers are optimistic that The Raja Saab will open to a Rs 100 crore gross on its first day. Grand premiere shows are planned across the Telugu states and select territories on January 8, ahead of the theatrical release.
