Pan-India star Prabhas is known for his action-packed roles in films like Baahubali, Saaho, Kalki 2898 AD and Salaar. However, his upcoming film Raja Saab is bringing a fresh change as a horror-comedy, directed by Maruthi. The film has already created a buzz, and the latest comments from popular comedian-turned-hero Saptagiri have taken the excitement to another level.

Prabhas’ Next-Level Comedy in Raja Saab

Saptagiri, who gained fame as a comedian before turning lead actor, recently shared his experience working with Prabhas in Raja Saab. In an interview, he revealed that he plays a full-length role alongside Prabhas, spending nearly 100 days on set. He described the film as something that will stand out in Prabhas’ career and be unlike anything he has done before.

“Prabhas’ character in this film is on another level. There’s never been a role like this in his career, and I doubt there will be for the next ten films. His comic timing is so sharp that even we, as comedians, couldn’t stop laughing. We were literally rolling on the floor laughing! Usually, comedians don’t laugh so easily, but director Maruthi made Prabhas so funny that we just couldn’t control our laughter,” Saptagiri said.

Why Raja Saab Is a Special Film for Prabhas

Unlike his recent intense action films, Raja Saab promises to showcase Prabhas in a lighter, more entertaining role. The glimpses released so far have surprised fans, especially his aged getup and youthful look in the film. With Nidhhi Agerwal, Malavika Mohanan, and Riddhi Kumar as the female leads, and seasoned actors like Sanjay Dutt and Anupam Kher in key roles, the film is shaping up to be a massive entertainer.

This marks Prabhas’ first horror-comedy, and expectations are high. Fans are eager to see their beloved “Darling” in a fun, family-friendly role after a long streak of high-octane action films. The film’s music is composed by Thaman, further raising anticipation.

Saptagiri’s Upcoming Film and Prabhas’ Support

Meanwhile, Saptagiri is busy promoting his latest film Pelli Kani Prasad, set to release on March 21. He mentioned that Prabhas was supportive, even watching the teaser and praising it. Saptagiri, who won the Nandi Award for Best Male Comedian for his role in Express Raja, is confident that Raja Saab will be a game-changer for Prabhas.

Originally slated for April 10, reports suggest that Raja Saab might be postponed, though no official confirmation has been made.

With Saptagiri’s first-hand experience of Prabhas’ comedy, fans are more excited than ever. If Raja Saab lives up to the hype, it could become one of the most entertaining films in Prabhas’ career.
