Hyderabad/IBNS: Defying mixed to negative early reviews, Prabhas-starrer Telugu film The Raja Saab stormed the global box office on its opening day, grossing an impressive Rs. 100 crore worldwide, according to early trade estimates reported by Sacnilk.

The Maruthi-directed entertainer earned approximately Rs. 70 crore in India, with the Telugu version leading the charge across key domestic markets.

Overseas, Prabhas’ strong fan following once again translated into big numbers, with the film raking in an estimated Rs. 25–30 crore, pushing The Raja Saab into the league of massive opening-day performers.

The film boasts a star-studded ensemble cast including Sanjay Dutt, Boman Irani, Nidhhi Agerwal, Malavika Mohanan, and Riddhi Kumar, alongside Prabhas in the lead role.

Produced by People Media Factory in association with IVY Entertainment, The Raja Saab features music composed by Thaman S.

Cinematography is handled by Karthik Palani, while Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao oversees the editing.

Despite critical reactions being divided, the film’s robust opening underscores Prabhas’ enduring box-office pull and sets the stage for a crucial first weekend performance.
