Darling Prabhas has achieved grand success with the movie “Kalki 2898 AD” and has emerged as the actor with the highest market value in the country. With this movie’s success, Prabhas’s upcoming films are also expected to create a massive buzz nationwide. His market cap is now expected to influence the business of his forthcoming films as well. Prabhas’s next movie, “The Raja Saab,” is slated for release soon.
Directed by Maruthi and produced by People’s Media Factory with a budget of 250 crores, this film falls into the horror-comedy genre with high-standard visual effects. Maruthi is attempting to bring this movie to life on the silver screen. It is reported that 50% of the movie’s shooting is already complete. There is a chance that the film might be released in April next year, although the official release date has not yet been confirmed.
Meanwhile, Kannada rocking star Yash gained pan-India recognition with the KGF series. Following these films, Yash took his time to select a story that would surpass the standards set by KGF. Finally, he started the movie “Toxic.” Recently, the shooting of this film commenced, and it has been officially confirmed that it will be released on April 10, 2025. It is anticipated that the shooting will be completed quickly to meet this release date.
If this happens, there is speculation about a clash between Darling Prabhas and rocking star Yash. It is being considered that “The Raja Saab” might also be released in April to coincide with the summer holidays. There is a chance that both these pan-India movies might hit theaters on the same date or within a gap of one or two weeks. Both actors have created their own brand at the pan-India level in terms of stardom.
However, Prabhas holds a slightly higher market value than Yash. Trade analysts suggest that if “Toxic” and “The Raja Saab” compete against each other, Yash is likely to suffer more losses. When Prabhas’s “Salaar” competed with Shah Rukh Khan’s “Dunki,” despite “Dunki” receiving positive reviews, it did not achieve the expected commercial success. Analysts attribute this to the impact of “Salaar.” Given this situation, whether two big stars like Prabhas and Yash will compete at the box office remains to be seen.
