The teaser showed Prabhas back to showing off his goofy side and mouthing funny one-liners after doing serious films like Saaho and Salaar. Director Prasanth Varma of HanuMan-fame wrote on X (formerly Twitter), 'LOOKS.. SWAG.. TIMING… VINTAGE DARLING!' Much like Prashanth, fans couldn't get enough of Prabhas' 'vintage' vibes, flooding X with their reactions.
One fan on X wrote, '#Prabhas in Raja Saab is everything!!!! Loving him in the teaser. The undisputed Pan India superstar has arrived.' A Redditor thought, 'This looks like if Radhe Shyam was made competent,' A fan even wrote, 'Ni vintage Comedy Timing ni Humour ni chala Miss ayyamm anna #Prabhas (We missed your vintage comedy timing Prabhas).'
Some were surprised to see Sanjay Dutt in the film, with one Redditor writing, 'Sanjay Dutt Hain ??? Kabse picture ban ri hai sidha teaser me pata chalra hai sanjay dutt bhi hai. (Sanjay Dutt is in the film? Since when have they been making the film that we found out about him in the teaser)' One joked, 'nowadays you should be more surprised if a movie doesn't have Sanjay Dutt.' Another agreed, 'Sanju Baba is in all the movies nowdays!'
Fans on Reddit and X had mixed reviews for the VFX and CGI in the film, though most didn't seem to mind. One fan wrote, 'Tacky production values but darling issa vibe myaan.' Another wrote, 'the vfx animals and ghosts don't look great but the sets themselves are good. The fire looked good.'
One wrote, 'Cgi looks decent.' Another shared screengrabs of the actor from the teaser, writing, 'Vintage Darling is back. Thank you @DirectorMaruthi. Vfx is surprisingly good. Idk abt the horror but the comedy track looks promising enough.
The Raja Saab will release in theatres in all south Indian languages and Hindi on 5 December.

Who Is Nupur Sanon, Actor Kriti Sanon's Sister, And Why Her Clothing Brand Is Facing Criticism?
Last Updated: Kriti Sanon's sister Nupur Sanon launched Nobo in 2024. The brand is now under fire for selling "basic" outfits at sky-high prices. Nupur Sanon, best known as the younger sister of Bollywood actor Kriti Sanon, is facing social media heat over her recently launched clothing line Nobo. While Nupur made her entertainment debut through hit music videos like Filhall opposite Akshay Kumar and ventured into films with the Telugu movie Tiger Nageswara Rao in 2023, it's her foray into fashion that's currently making headlines for all the wrong reasons. Who Is Nupur Sanon? Nupur Sanon, a singer and actress, rose to fame with Filhall and its sequel Filhall 2 – Mohabbat. She is also known for her musical covers shared on social media. Although she has yet to make her Bollywood debut, her popularity continues to rise. Nupur is currently rumoured to be dating singer Stebin Ben, whose hits like Sahiba, Thoda Thoda Pyaar, and Rula Ke Gaya Ishq have gone viral. Why Is Nupur Sanon's Brand Facing Backlash? Launched in 2024, Nupur's label Nobo promises minimal, modern silhouettes that blend Indian and Western aesthetics. However, Reddit users and social media critics are calling out the brand for its steep pricing and 'unoriginal" designs. Critics have highlighted how the label is selling 'basic-looking" clothes for up to Rs 27,000, sparking debate on whether celebrity-backed brands are disconnected from their audiences. On the official website, the most expensive lehenga is a Banarasi design priced at Rs 21,000. In the Indian wear section, the costliest suit set is listed at Rs 26,500, while the most affordable item costs Rs 7,700. Western wear includes a skirt and crop top set that retails at Rs 20,000, and the cheapest product is a pair of shorts priced at Rs 2,400. Reddit threads filled up with mocking commentary. One user wrote, 'No Bo is short for 'Nobody Bought it.'" Another quipped, 'These are the ugliest clothes I've ever seen, good lord." A third post sarcastically read, 'I think her brand name is incomplete cause she clearly forgot to write Label NoboDY IS BUYING THIS OVERPRICED FAST FASHION SHIT FROM ME." Despite the backlash, Nobo has been endorsed by several celebrities including Kriti Sanon herself, Uorfi Javed, Sanjana Sanghi and influencer Rida Tharana. First Published: June 16, 2025, 21:30 IST

Prabhas-starrer The Raja Saab's creative producer alleges Tollywood producer tried to run negative campaign against movie: ‘This film was only made possible because…'
The much-awaited teaser of Prabhas' upcoming film The Raja Saab was released today. At the teaser launch event on Monday, creative producer Sreenivas Kumar Naidu, also known as SKN, claimed that a Tollywood producer tried to run a 'negative campaign' against his friend and director Maruthi's film. He also revealed what went on behind the scenes during the initial stages of the horror fantasy. At the event in Hyderabad, SKN expressed his happiness for Maruthi finally getting his due. 'Much like how a wife knows her husband best, only a friend can know a best friend's potential. Maruthi and I have been friends for 20 years now. Listen to me today. Everybody who underestimated this film will change their mind. You'll see the 'rebel god' Prabhas whom you've missed for a decade now,' he said. While addressing the media and fans, the creative producer alleged that a Tollywood producer tried to sabotage the film and credited Prabhas for not being affected by it. Without directly taking any names, he said, 'I am well aware of how a producer tried to negatively campaign on this film when they began shooting. Now see how the same producer will talk positively about the film tomorrow. This film was only made possible because Prabhas gave his best without believing in those campaigns.' ALSO READ | Kannappa trailer: Vishnu Manchu promises visually striking spectacle with Akshay Kumar, Prabhas and Mohanlal's powerful cameos The Raja Saab director Maruthi, whose previous film Pakka Commercial (2022) was a disaster, also talked about how a producer, who was earlier supposed to back the project, stepped out of it. Maruthi even shared that he was ready to shelve the movie, but was surprised and motivated to make the film when Prabhas appreciated the script. 'I wondered why he was trusting me so much. I realised I need to move forward and that I hadn't come to Hyderabad to give it all up.' The Raja Saab has been produced by Vishwa Prasad of People Media Factory. Besides Prabhas, the film also stars Sanjay Dutt, Boman Irani, Nidhhi Agerwal, Malavika Mohanan, and Riddhi Kumar. The horror-comedy is set to hit theatres on December 5 in all south Indian languages and Hindi.
