00:37update from the world of Indian cinema. The much-awaited teaser of the Raja Saab starring
00:43Prabhas has finally dropped and it's nothing short of a supernatural spectacle. With horror,
00:50humor and heart-thumping drama, this fantasy thriller promises to be one of the biggest
00:55cinematic events of the year. Let's dive into the haunted world of the Raja Saab.
01:02The Raja Saab, Prabhas returns to form in India's grandest horror-fantasy spectacle.
01:07Telugu superstar Prabhas is back in an avatar that fans have longed for, playful, intense
01:26and irresistibly charming in the newly released teaser of the Raja Saab. Directed by Maruti,
01:33the upcoming fantasy horror-comedy promises to blend laughter, scares, romance and mass
01:39appeal on an epic scale.
01:49With a Panindia release scheduled for 5th December, this film has already generated a storm of excitement
01:56across fan circles and social media platforms. The teaser kicks off with sweeping visuals of a hauntingly beautiful
02:07Haveli nestled deep in a forest. It's not just any mansion, it's a sprawling 41,256 square feet set,
02:19officially dubbed India's largest horror-fantasy set. A deep, airy voice-over sets the tone.
02:26This house is my body. This wealth is my life itself. Even after I am gone, I am the only one who is going to experience it.
02:37We are then introduced to the spirit of Raja Saab, a malevolent soul played with Gothic manners
02:52by Sanjay Dutt, who is determined to never let go of his cursed treasures, even in death.
02:58His spectral presence dominates the airy corridors, ready to strike down anyone who dares disturb Israel.
03:05Prabhas, the charming daredevil.
03:09Into this spooky labyrinth walks Prabhas' character, nonchalant, flirtatious and absolutely unbothered by danger.
03:18He enters the Haveli with his friends, drawn by either curiosity or greed, but soon finds himself entangled in a wep of supernatural threats.
03:28His performance carries shade of his earlier, more comedic roles, winning fans over with his effortless charm and comic timing.
03:39He tries to woo Nidhi Agarwal's character with lines reminiscent of classic Bollywood romances, even channeling Shah Rukh Khan at one point.
03:49Meanwhile, Malvika Mohanan, playing an obsessive admirer, adds more drama to the chaotic love triangle.
04:00Actress Riddhi Kumar also plays a pivotal role, though her character's mystery hasn't been fully revealed.
04:07What to expect, spooky laughs and burning ropes.

04:32The film offers jump scares, bizarre apparitions, and a spookier comic vibe that walks the fine line between horror and mass entertainment.
04:41While some CGI moments may appear rough around the edges, fans have largely embraced the teaser's nostalgic and energetic tone.
04:51The biggest horror set in India.
04:54One of the most jaw-dropping achievements of the Raja Saab is its set design.
04:59The Haveli, crafted by art director Rajivan Nambyal, is not just scenery, it's a character in its own right.
05:08From dusty chandeliers to grand staircases and creaking wooden doors, every element was meticulously crafted to evoke a haunting presence.
05:17We didn't want the set to look haunted, we wanted it to feel haunted, says Nambyal.
05:23The emotion had to speak through every corner.
05:27This set became so integral to the production that it was opened up to national media for an exclusive walk-thruff during the teaser launch, giving journalists a taste of the immersive cinematic world that Maruti has envisioned.
05:41Behind the scenes, double shifts, immense dedication.
05:48The film is being produced under the People Media Factory banner by T.G. Vishwa Plasad and Vivek Kuchibotla.
05:56At the teaser launch in Hyderabad, director Maruti shared how the team worked 18-hour days to keep the production on schedule.
06:05Actors worked 8-hour shifts while we as a crew ran from 6am to 10pm every day, Maruti revealed.
06:13That's how we've achieved this scale and the passion shows in every frame.
06:18Credits include music by Thaman S, cinematography by Karthik Palani and editing by Kotagiri Venkateswar Rav.
06:27Maruti also penned the screenplay.
06:30Fans react vintage Prabhas' back.

07:07We've missed your vintage comedy timing, Prabhas gushed a fan on X.
07:13Some even joked, nowadays you should be more surprised if a movie doesn't have Sanjay Dutt.
07:19While a few critics pointed out Aniwan VFX and creature designs, most praised the scale, set design and humor.
07:28As one fan put it, the VFX ghosts look okay, but the vibe is strong.
