The hype around The Raja Saab, starring Prabhas, has received a notable push after the release of its latest trailer, with advance ticket bookings in the USA showing a clear uptick. Initially, pre-sales for the horror-comedy were slow compared to expectations for a Prabhas film overseas. However, following the launch of the second trailer, interest among audiences surged, leading to a significant jump in advance sales.
Over the past day, the film’s advance revenue reportedly saw an increase of more than $50,000, taking the total USA pre-sales for premiere shows to over $250,000. This response indicates that the promotional content — especially the trailer — has resonated well with fans and general viewers in North America, encouraging more people to book tickets ahead of the film’s release.
The rise in advance bookings is seen as an encouraging sign for the team behind The Raja Saab. Despite a slow start, the growing momentum suggests that stronger promotional activities could further boost excitement and help improve ticket sales as the release date approaches.
The film, directed by Maruthi, is one of the major Telugu releases of the upcoming Sankranti season. With its unique mix of comedy, horror, and romance, and anchored by Prabhas’ star power, expectations are high among fans in various markets. Now that the trailer has successfully generated buzz in the USA, the real test will be maintaining that momentum leading up to the film’s theatrical debut early next year.
