Ever since the 2.0 trailer of The Raja Saab was released, fans have been excited about the Nache Nache song, featuring Prabhas and the three heroines: Malavika Mohanan, Nidhhi Agerwal, and Riddhi Kumar.

The Nache Nache song shows Prabhas dancing with three heroines, and it is said to be one of the major highlights of the film; people are eagerly awaiting this song. Till now, no song has worked hugely for the Raja Saab, which is why the film is witnessing below-par advances overseas. 

Music director Thaman officially announces that the most expected and the biggest song of the film will arrive on 5th January, and he also teases fans by saying that Prabhas’s costumes and styling in the song will be extraordinary.

This song needs to be a huge success and generate significant buzz for the film. This song is a remix of the classic Hindi track “Koi Yahan Nache (Auva Auva)” from the 1982 film Disco Dancer. The original was performed by Bappi Lahiri, Usha Uthup, and the chorus and starred Mithun Chakraborty.

There was a big buzz around Thalaivar 173’s director, and the final reveal today has shocked everyone. Cibi Chakravarthy, the director who made Don with Sivakarthikyan, will direct Rajinikanth now.

For a few days, there were so many rumors about the director of Thalaivar 173, and the makers shocked fans by informing them that Cibi Chakravarthy has been roped in to direct Superstar Rajinikanth. 

From Vivek Atreya to Ramkumar  Ramkumar Balakrishnan and Ashwath Marimuthu, many names were reported earlier to direct Rajini’s next, but in the end, a name that no one expected has been confirmed by the producers. 

It is widely known that the film will be produced by Kamal Haasan under Raaj Kamal Films International. The makers also announced that the film will be released in theaters on Pongal/Sankranthi 2027.

Peddi Second Single Delay: What Happened?

0

Ram Charan and Buchi Babu’s Peddi will have a grand worldwide release in March 2026, and the film has already gathered massive hype, with its first glimpse and song getting a huge response. But the fans were disappointed with the delay in the release of Peddi’s second single. 

The first single of this rural action drama, Chikiri Chikiri, created a sensation and is undoubtedly the best song recently. Actually, the team planned to release the next song as a New Year special, but as multiple films are releasing for Sankranthi, they postponed it to post-Sankranthi to give the required space for the festival releases.

If the second single from Peddi had been released and worked like Chikiri Chikiri, then it would have directly impacted Sankranthi releases. It is widely known that among Sankranthi releases, Chiranjeevi’s film is also releasing. Due to all these factors, the makers of Peddi decided to arrive after Sankranthi.

The Raja Saab is the first Sankranthi film to complete all censor formalities in all languages. It is also the first major film to arrive in theatres during this festival season. Earlier reports suggested that the film’s runtime was more than three hours, but the makers have trimmed about fifteen minutes from the final cut.

Made as a horror-comedy, The Raja Saab initially received a U/A certificate with a censored runtime of 189 minutes (3 hours and 9 minutes). However, director Maruthi recently clarified in an interview that this is not the final length. He revealed that a few more scenes were removed after censoring, and the final runtime is now expected to be around 175 minutes (2 hours and 55 minutes).

As the first film to release during the Sankranthi season, The Raja Saab is aiming for a strong opening at the box office. The makers are also planning paid premiere shows in both Telugu states on January 8. But an official announcement will be made only after receiving approval from the respective state governments.
