The Raja Saab box office collection day 1: The much-anticipated horror comedy of Prabhas didn’t earn as much as his previous films, such as Salaar or Kalki 2898 AD. As per Sacnilk.com, the film has earned over ₹32 crore on Friday. The film has managed to click with the Telugu star’s immense fan base.
The Raja Saab box office update
The Raja Saab is the weakest opening for any Prabhas film post-pandemic. It is expected, given that the advance bookings opened late, and the film is not a mass actioner, which usually takes huge starts on opening days. According to the report, the film has earned ₹32.46 crore nett in India as per early estimates across all languages.
This is impressive because the film managed to out-earn Dhurandhar with its morning shows. The Ranveer Singh-starrer had been the number one film at the Indian box office since its release five weeks ago. The Raja Saab finally snatched its crown, surpassing Dhurandhar’s Thursday haul of ₹4.25 crore with ease by 9 AM.
The Raja Saab’s record start
The Raja Saab’s opening is lower than Prabhas’ previous releases like Salaar ( ₹90 crore) and Kalki 2898 AD ( ₹95 crore). Even Adipurush opened at ₹86 crore before it crashed badly. By that metric, Prabhas has reason to be disappointed. However, despite the relatively ‘slow’ start, The Raja Saab is set to surpass the opening day hauls of recent blockbusters like Jawan ( ₹64 crore), Animal ( ₹63 crore), Leo ( ₹64.80 crore), and Dhurandhar ( ₹30 crore). How it fares after the opening day remains to be seen.
About The Raja Saab
Directed by Maruthi, The Raja Saab has generated curiosity for its lead actor’s return to the family entertainer genre after over a decade. All of Prabhas’ films after the Baahubali series were mass actioners. Fans say The Raja Saab is a return of the ‘vintage Prabhas’. The film also stars Sanjay Dutt, Malavika Mohanan, Nidhhi Agerwal, Riddhi Kumar, Boman Irani, and Zarina Wahab.
