SKN Exposes Secret Sabotage Attempt On Prabhas Starrer 'The Raja Saab'
SKN made a bold revelation that a fellow Tollywood producer allegedly attempted to sabotage The Raja Saab, but superstar Prabhas’s unwavering trust helped it stay on track.
Producer Sreenivas Kumar Naidu, widely known as SKN, stirred up fresh headlines during the teaser launch of The Raja Saab, the much-awaited film by his close friend, director Maruthi. Speaking candidly at the Hyderabad event, SKN made a bold revelation that a fellow Tollywood producer allegedly attempted to sabotage the project, but superstar Prabhas’s unwavering trust helped it stay on track.
What SKN Said About The Raja Saab
Clearly thrilled to see his friend Maruthi receive due recognition, SKN said at the event, “Much like how a wife knows her husband best, only a friend can know a best friend’s potential. Maruthi and I have been friends for 20 years now. Listen to me today. Everybody who underestimated this film will change their mind. You’ll see the ‘rebel god’ Prabhas, whom you’ve missed for a decade now.”
Behind-the-Scenes Sabotage
He then shocked everyone by revealing what went on behind the scenes. Without naming anyone, SKN alleged, “I am well aware of how a producer tried to negatively campaign on this film when they began shooting. Now see how the same producer will talk positively about the film tomorrow. This film was only made possible because Prabhas gave his best without believing those campaigns.”
Maruthi Opens Up on Funding Hurdles
Director Maruthi, whose last film Pakka Commercial failed to impress at the box office, also spoke about the hurdles the team faced. He revealed that the project nearly got shelved when the initial producer backed out, but Prabhas’s faith gave him the push to go ahead. “I wondered why he was trusting me so much. I realised I need to move forward and that I hadn’t come to Hyderabad to give it all up,” Maruthi shared.
About The Raja Saab
Backed by Vishwa Prasad under the People Media Factory banner, The Raja Saab stars Prabhas alongside Nidhhi Agerwal, Malavika Mohanan, and Riddhi Kumar. The teaser teases a supernatural twist, with a mysterious haveli and a greedy Raja’s spirit haunting its corridors. The film is slated to hit theatres on December 5 in all South Indian languages and Hindi.
