Prabhas’ long-awaited horror-comedy The Raja Saab, which is helmed by Maruthi, has been the buzz of the town for months now. With most of the shoot completed, the movie is now in the middle of post-production. But one major problem has cropped up—the film’s lengthy runtime.
Based on industry insiders, the original cut of The Raja Saab clocks in at around three and a half hours, incredibly long for a horror-comedy. The editing team is currently in a difficult position, attempting to cut down the movie without losing its essential entertainment quotient. This has given rise to speculations whether the running time is the reason for delays or if there’s something else brewing.
While fans wait with bated breath for more information, the conclusion of the other shoot and the release date, The Raja Saab features Nidhhi Agerwal and Malavika Mohanan as heroines with Thaman scoring the music. Produced by TG Vishwa Prasad under the People Media Factory banner, The Raja Saab is going to be a big-budget entertainer. Being helmed by the superstar Prabhas, expectations are running high, so it’s one of the most highly anticipated releases from Tollywood.
