‘The Raja Saab’ Sees Sharp Day 2 Drop After Big Opening

A steep Saturday slide tests the film’s staying power after a front‑loaded start in the Telugu belt.

Overview

  • Industry tracker Sacnilk estimated roughly ₹27.8 crore on Day 2, about a 48% fall from the opening day’s take.
  • Day 1 in India was pegged at about ₹54.15 crore including paid previews, with overseas estimates of around ₹26 crore pushing the worldwide start past ₹100 crore.
  • Turnout was concentrated in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana with about 57% Telugu occupancy on Day 1, while Hindi and other versions saw much lower levels.
  • The makers said they added an 8–9 minute sequence featuring Prabhas in an older look from Saturday evening shows after complaints about missing scenes.
  • With reports placing the budget near ₹400 crore, the early slide heightens pressure on Sunday holds and weekday legs, even as end credits flagged a sequel titled The Raja Saab: Circus 1935.
