Prabhas extended his heartfelt Pongal wishes to his fans by sharing a new poster of his upcoming film, The Raja Saab, earlier today.
The poster features Prabhas in a dashing avatar as he looks away from the camera.
Notably, the poster does not include the previously announced release date, April 10, 2025.
This has further fueled speculations about a possible postponement of the film's release.
In his caption, Prabhas wrote, “Wishing you all joy and happiness this festive season…. See you soon with #TheRajaSaab.”
On Friday, a report by Pinkvilla mentioned that the release of The Raja Saab has been postponed.
“The makers are yet to finalize a new date, with full-fledged promotions expected to take place closer to the film's release,” the report added.
On Prabhas' 45th birthday last year, the makers of The Raja Saab unveiled a motion poster on X.
The poster showcased Prabhas seated on a gothic-themed throne. His salt-and-pepper hairstyle added depth to his intense look.
The tagline on the poster, read, “Horror is the new humour."
A side note read, “Royal by blood… Rebel by choice… Claiming what was always his! Motion Poster out now.”
