Why Prabhas Took a Pay Cut for The Raja Saab – Details Inside
Pan-India star Prabhas is now preparing for his next big-screen outing, The Raja Saab, which is scheduled to release on December 5, 2025. This film is a romantic horror-comedy directed by Maruthi and produced by People Media Factory.
Interestingly, reports suggest that Prabhas has reduced his remuneration for this project. Usually known to charge around ₹150 crore per film, the actor is said to have accepted ₹100 crore for The Raja Saab. This decision likely follows the underperformance of his previous film Adipurush, which was also backed by the same production house.
Originally planned for release in April 2025, the movie faced delays due to pending VFX work. After months of wait, fans are now excited as the film gets a new release date in December.
The Raja Saab will be Prabhas’ first film in the horror-comedy genre. The story revolves around a man who tries to take over an ancestral property for financial gain. However, things take a strange turn when he discovers that the property holds dark secrets, making the film an exciting mix of romance, humor, and horror.
Apart from The Raja Saab, Prabhas has multiple films lined up. He will be seen in Spirit, a much-discussed film directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga. He’s also expected to play a cameo in Vishnu Manchu’s Kannappa and star in Fauji, a military-themed drama. Sequels like Salaar 2 and Kalki 2 are also in the pipeline.
