Fans have been eagerly waiting for the release of Prabhas starrer The Raja Saab. The film release date was announced as December 5. However, now speculation around the release date os much-anticipated film has been making waves. Report is suggesting a delay in the theatrical release confirmation. Putting all the rumours to rest, the film's producer has finally addressed the buzz and provided the clarity.
The 123 Telugu mentioned that in the recent interview producer TG Vishwa Prasad revealed the team's current release plan. He said they are planning to release the movie on January 9, 2026, to take advantage of the Sankranthi season, adding that it was a request from people involved in the film's business. He also mentioned that Bollywood buyers are insisting on sticking with the December 5, 2025 release. A few songs and some patchwork are yet to be completed, the producer added.
The report also says that the film is likely to be released in January. Recently, when the team revealed the first look of Malavika Mohanan, the release date was also removed.
Earlier, 123 Telugu reported that the big-ticket entertainer might be postponed once again. The Raja Saab will now open in cinemas during Sankranthi 2026, on January 9, 2026. However, no official confirmation has still made in this regard. The movie was originally supposed to hit theatres in April 2025 but got delayed, sparking rumours that the makers were eyeing a festive release instead. On June 3, the makers officially locked in the new release date, December 5. But looks like it will once again get postponed. The film is a horror comedy that tells the story of a carefree young man who attempts to make a quick fortune by flipping his ancestral mansion—only to discover a terrifying secret lurking within.
Recently, Prabhas shared the first regal look of Sanjay Dutt. 'Wishing the ever-inspiring Sanjay Dutt sir a very happy birthday! Grateful to share the screen with you in #TheRajaSaab." In no time, it went viral among fans. Joining Prabhas in this supernatural entertainer are Malavika Mohanan, Nidhhi Agerwal, and Ridhi Kumar, who play key roles.
The Raja Saab is touted to be a horror-comedy, marking a genre break for Prabhas after having featured in action or fantasy dramas in the past few years. The film features a Haveli that's unlike anything seen before in Indian cinema. This grand set, spanning 41,256 sq ft, is officially the largest horror set ever constructed in India.
The film is also expected to make a big splash in the Hindi market. However, it won't have the date all to itself as in Bollywood, it's heading for a box office face-off with Vishal Bhardwaj's upcoming film starring Shahid Kapoor and Triptii Dimri, which is also set to release on the same day.

The runway was nothing short of cinematic as the 'Param Sundari' stars walked hand-in-hand, embodying the perfect fusion of timeless heritage and contemporary flair. In a dazzling celebration of love, ritual, and reinvention, Janhvi Kapoor and Sidharth Malhotra turned heads as the showstoppers for Gaurav Gupta's first-ever bridal couture showcase in Mumbai. The designer unveiled his latest masterpiece, Quantum Entanglement, a collection that reimagines the traditional Indian bride and groom for the present and future. Janhvi's bridal moment Having previously walked for Gaurav Gupta at India Couture Week in 2023, Janhvi returned to the runway in a look that was pure modern bridal fantasy. She wore a heavily embroidered lehenga paired with an off-shoulder blouse, topped with a delicate veil edged in intricate embroidery. The ensemble's most striking detail was the iconic Gaurav Gupta infinity logo, meticulously embellished on the lehenga's waistband. Her understated yet luminous glam, paired with contemporary kalires , offered a refreshing twist on bridal tradition, celebrating the elegance and individuality of the modern Indian bride. Sidharth's regal complement Sidharth Malhotra perfectly matched Janhvi's ethereal presence in an ivory sherwani adorned with tonal embroidery. Draped with an ivory shawl, his look exuded royal opulence while maintaining a sleek, contemporary edge—ideal for the modern Indian groom. A couture homecoming Marking his most rooted collection to date, Gupta described Quantum Entanglement as a year in the making—a deliberate creative pause from the Paris Haute Couture calendar to focus on something deeply intimate: a return to home and heritage. Each piece was envisioned as a future heirloom, carrying ancestral memory while reflecting the voice of a new generation. The collection showcased handwoven Banarasi brocades, antique zardosi embroidery, and Chantilly lace sourced from historic French mills, weaving together craft, legacy, and innovation. Star-studded celebration The event drew a glittering crowd of Bollywood celebrities, including Malaika Arora, Khushi Kapoor, Vijay Varma, Disha Patani, Nitanshi Goel, Neha Dhupia, Angad Bedi, Kiran Rao, Anshula Kapoor, and Shriya Saran. The audience witnessed not just a fashion show, but an artistic statement that set the tone for the upcoming wedding season. Global impact, Indian heart Gaurav Gupta has long been celebrated on global platforms, with his creations worn by icons like Beyoncé, Shakira, Cardi B, Rihanna, Halle Berry, Katy Perry, Joey King, and Taraji P. Henson. Yet this showcase reaffirmed that his deepest inspiration still draws from the traditions, rituals, and evolving spirit of India. By blending heritage craftsmanship with imaginative silhouettes, Gupta's first bridal couture show was more than a debut—it was a bridge between the past and the future, between the universal language of love and the infinite possibilities of design.

Alongside Mahesh, the film features global star Priyanka Chopra and Malayalam powerhouse Prithviraj Sukumaran in pivotal roles.
