The Raja Saab release date: Producer hints Prabhas' film will hit screens for Sankranthi, avoid clash with Dhurandhar
The Raja Saab release to shift to Sankranthi?
Vishwa was asked if The Raja Saab was hitting screens on time in December, and he replied, 'See, I didn't announce this publicly. But many people are of the view that it should be released for Sankranthi. Fans want that, as do Telugu business circles. There's a strong proposal to release it on 9 January.'
Acknowledging that Aditya Dhar's Ranveer Singh-starrer Dhurandhar was also slated for release on the same day, Vishwa claimed that the Hindi film might also be postponed. 'However, the Hindi business circle wants it to be released on 5 December because they don't have anything strong releasing then, and Dhurandhar's release might be moved too. We will anyway do what's right for us. The film will be ready by October, but we will take a call,' he said.
Vishwa revealed in the interview that they have raw footage of 4 hours 30 minutes of the film and that Maruthi will take a call to decide a runtime of 2 hours 45 minutes or 3 hours 15 minutes. The producer also stated that the film will have a sequel, but it will not continue the same story and instead show a different story set in the same universe.

Kingdom box office collection day 7: Gowtam Tinnanuri's Kingdom, starring Vijay Deverakonda, Satyadev, Venkitesh, and Bhagyashri Borse, hit theatres last Thursday, after facing several delays. After a decent start, the film has been struggling to pick up numbers over its first week. As per the latest update on Sacnilk, the film is yet to cross the ₹50 crore mark. (Also read: 'Only promoted a legal gaming app': Vijay Deverakonda clarifies after ED appearance in betting app case) Kingdom box office collection day 7: Vijay Deverakonda's film is also set to have a sequel. Kingdom latest box office update As per the report, Kingdom minted ₹ 1.05 crore in its seventh day of release, its lowest so far. Kingdom made an opening day haul of ₹18 crore on 31 July, but since then the film has not been able to surpass that figure in the next few days. Even the weekend collections were not in double digits. The overall collections now stand at ₹ 45.7 crore. Kingdom had an overall 12.80% Telugu Occupancy on Wednesday. About Kingdom Kingdom tells the story of a police constable named Suri (Vijay) who agrees to go on an undercover mission in Sri Lanka in hopes of finding his long-lost brother Siva (Satyadev). Anirudh Ravichander composed the music and background score of the film. The film is produced by Naga Vamsi and Sai Soujanya under the banners of Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas. An excerpt from the Hindustan Times review of the film read, 'Vijay finally gets his redemption arc with Kingdom, both as an actor and character. After a long time, you see the theatre actor and the star in him come out. There might be moments where he fumbles, but he quickly finds his footing and plays the varied shades well. Particularly when it comes to the equation with a pitch-perfect Satyadev as Siva. Suri and Siva's relationship forms the heart of this tale, and Gowtam brings in tiny nuances to make it believable.'

Prabhas' Spirit track list: Film to include 6 songs and a dedicated theme for the actor?
Spirit, starring Prabhas, is expected to begin shooting this year, with Sandeep Reddy Vanga helming the project. While it was earlier reported that the musical tracks had completed their work, it now seems that the film will have 6 songs in total. Will Prabhas' starrer Spirit have 6 songs in total? According to a report by the X (formerly Twitter) handle Rangasthalam, Spirit will have a total of 6 songs. One will be a theme track for Prabhas, and another a special track likely to emphasize a flashback portion. Moreover, the other two songs will be romantic numbers set between a doctor and a cop. While it has been confirmed that Prabhas will be playing a police officer in the flick, Triptii Dimri, the female co-star, will likely be playing a doctor. However, as of now, this is just a report with makers yet to make things official. About Spirit Spirit is an upcoming action drama featuring the Rebel Star as an angry young cop. The film is expected to portray the officer's journey in ousting a mafia ring, controlling the underworld. Initially, it was reported that Deepika Padukone would be helming the female lead; however, owing to the failure of final negotiations, she had to back out. This paved the way for Animal fame Triptii Dimri to take up the role, marking her debut in South Indian cinema. While the SRV directorial was expected to go on floors from September 2025, there are speculations that it might get postponed yet again. As per a report by Gulte, Prabhas still has pending works in his upcoming releases, The Raja Saab and the tentatively titled PrabhasHanu. As Vanga is known to have actors do a single film while working with him, it seems unlikely that Spirit will begin production in September. Prabhas' next release Prabhas will next be appearing in the lead role for the horror comedy romantic film The Raja Saab. The Maruthi directorial features the tale of a carefree young man who is planning to make a fortune by flipping an ancestral mansion. However, things go south when he encounters a spirit that resides within those doors. While it is announced to release in December 2025, the film's producer highlighted that there are chances for it to be postponed to Sankranthi 2026.
