Mumbai Buzz: ‘The Raja Saab’ Surpasses Baahubali’s Day 1 Hindi Collection but Marks Prabhas’s 3rd Lowest Opening!
Sylvie 
Prabhas, the celebrated superstar who rose to fame with the blockbuster Baahubali franchise, continues to dominate Bollywood headlines. Mumbai is abuzz as his latest film ‘The Raja Saab’ has shattered expectations by surpassing the Hindi day 1 box office collection of Baahubali – The Beginning. This achievement marks a significant milestone, considering Baahubali’s massive success that propelled Prabhas to stardom nationwide.
Despite this impressive start, there is a twist in the tale. ‘The Raja Saab’ has registered Prabhas’s third lowest opening in terms of Hindi box-office collections. This intriguing scenario has sparked numerous discussions among Bollywood enthusiasts and industry experts alike. While the film’s initial earnings outclass Baahubali’s day 1 figures, it still lags behind two of Prabhas’s previously better openings.
The journey of Prabhas post-Baahubali has been a mixed bag, with some films performing exceptionally and others not meeting expectations. However, his magnetic screen presence and dedicated fan base continue to make any release of his a significant event. Industry insiders speculate that the unique storyline and promotional tactics of ‘The Raja Saab’ played vital roles in garnering initial attention.
Moreover, the film’s music, cinematography, and supporting cast have also contributed to making it a notable contender at the ticket counters. Despite the hiccup of a lower ranking among Prabhas’s openings, the film’s ability to outshine Baahubali – The Beginning’s day 1 Hindi collection is a testament to Prabhas’s evolving market power.
As the week unfolds, all eyes are on how ‘The Raja Saab’ performs in the subsequent days and if it can sustain the momentum beyond the initial excitement. Bollywood experts suggest that this film might mark a new chapter in Prabhas’s career, reflecting both the changing dynamics of the industry and the fan expectations.
