The Raja Saab Day 5 Box Office Collection: The Raja Saab, starring Prabhas, is witnessing a steady drop in box office numbers after an impressive opening day. Released worldwide on January 9, the horror-comedy directed by Maruti generated massive pre-release buzz, but audience response appears to be mixed as the film enters its fifth day in theatres.
According to early estimates, The Raja Saab collected ₹4.34 crore on Day 5 at the Indian box office. With this, the film’s total net collection in India stands at ₹118.49 crore so far.
While the opening day numbers positioned the film as a potential blockbuster, the sharp decline over the weekdays has raised concerns among trade analysts.
Day-wise Box Office Performance (India Net)
- Day 1: ₹53.75 crore
- Day 2: ₹26 crore
- Day 3: ₹19.1 crore
- Day 4: ₹6.6 crore
- Day 5: ₹4.34 crore
The film saw a massive drop after Day 1, with collections falling significantly each day. Despite the festive release window, audience footfall seems to be slowing due to average word-of-mouth and criticism over the screenplay and execution.
The Raja Saab Worldwide Collection
On the global front, The Raja Saab has performed better comparatively. The film has reportedly earned ₹188.4 crore worldwide so far. In India, its gross collection has crossed ₹140 crore, combining net box office figures and taxes.
Trade experts believe that the ongoing Sankranti holiday period could still help the film reach the ₹200 crore worldwide club, though sustaining momentum remains a challenge given the steep weekday drops.

Star Cast and Budget
The Raja Saab is mounted on a massive budget of ₹450 crore, making it one of the most expensive films in Prabhas’ career. Apart from Prabhas in the lead role, the film features a strong ensemble cast including Sanjay Dutt, Boman Irani, Zarina Wahab, Nidhhi Agerwal, Riddhi Kumar, and Malavika Mohanan.
Blending horror with comedy, the film aimed to present Prabhas in a lighter, entertaining avatar. However, mixed reviews from critics and audiences have impacted its box office trajectory.
What’s Next?
While The Raja Saab had a thunderous start, its long-term box office success will now depend on weekend growth and holiday occupancy. Whether the film can recover ground and justify its hefty budget remains to be seen in the coming days.
