Prabhas's Dussehra Master Plan: 'Fauji' Aims for Blockbuster After 'The Raja Saab' Flop
- •Prabhas is currently the busiest Tollywood actor, with multiple big-budget pan-India projects like 'Fauji', 'Spirit', and 'Kalki 2' in his pipeline.
- •His recent film 'The Raja Saab', released before Sankranti, was a disaster, collecting only Rs. 120 crores against a Rs. 200 crore budget, resulting in Rs. 80 crore losses.
- •Prabhas is now prioritizing 'Fauji', a periodic concept film set in the 1940s, where he plays a soldier, aiming for a Dussehra release.
- •Directed by Hanu Raghavapudi ('Sita Ramam'), 'Fauji' is a blend of love, sacrifice, and patriotism, with a budget of Rs. 300 crores.
- •The film features Bollywood stars Mithun Chakraborty, Anupam Kher, and Jayaprada in key roles, with music by Vishal Chandrashekar.
Why It Matters: After 'The Raja Saab's' failure, Prabhas is strategically focusing on 'Fauji' for a Dussehra comeback.
