Before booking your movie tickets, check out what the public is saying about the recently released horror comedy.
A user wrote, "A genre-blending horror fantasy that dares to try something different. The core idea is interesting, and #Prabhas brings solid energy, charm and humour throughout. His confrontation moments with #SanjayDutt stand out as key highlights. The palace backdrop adds an engaging vibe, especially in the early portions. A few uneven moments aside, the film sets the stage for something bigger ahead. The ending clearly hints at The Raja Saab Circus – 1935 (Part 2), promising a larger canvas and an exciting Prabhas vs Prabhas showdown. Overall, a decent theatrical watch with scope that expands further in the sequel."

The film, however, garnered mixed reviews, with many criticising poor VFX, confusing twists and forced jump scares.
A third review read, “Watch at Your Risk… A Royal Mess of Scares and Confusion It’s okaish. The horror feels forced, the drama drags with confusing twists that don’t land, and the narrative loses steam fast.”

Despite the strict criticism, viewers highlighted the film`s final act as the strongest point.
Another X user mentioned, “#TheRajaSaab: A mixed bag. #Prabhas is back with a solid performance and great screen presence! The concept had so much potential, but execution felt messy and disappointing.”
The Raja Saab was released in cinemas on January 9 in five languages – Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada and Malayalam.
