The RajaSaab is a disappointing outing that may appeal only to die-hard fans, but leaves general audiences wanting more substance and cohesion despite being a stretched attempt.

A still from The RajaSaab
The RajaSaab, starring Prabhas and directed by Maruthi, arrives with high expectations, a lavish budget and the promise of a quirky horror-comedy. However, despite a few entertaining moments and the actor’s undeniable screen presence, the film struggles to hold together as a coherent or engaging experience.
Prabhas does what he can to shoulder the narrative, injecting energy through sharp one-liners and brief flashes of charm. These moments occasionally lift the film, reminding viewers of his star power. Unfortunately, they are too few and far between to compensate for the film’s deeper issues. Malavika Mohanan, Riddhi Kumar and Niddhi Agerwal`s love angle seems wasted in the plotline. The female protagonists fail to bring any meat to the story apart from the flawed romance onscreen.
