The Raja Saab OTT release update
The Raja Saab's Hindi version update
The sad part is that the Hindi version is not available on JioHotstar. If this was not enough, The Raja Saab was also not available for the US audience. This aspect has disappointed many NRIs in the US.
The Raja Saab was one of the biggest films of 2026, and as a large section of the audience did not watch it in theatres, there was an eager wait for its OTT release. The latest update is that the film is now available for streaming on the Hulu app.
There is now news that The Raja Saab might stream on Amazon Prime Video in the US, and a confirmation is expected soon. Generally, Hotstar’s content is distributed through Hulu in the US, but The Raja Saab did not stream there, making the situation even more interesting. But now, since a few hours ago, the film is available for streaming.
Ever since the film landed on OTT, it has become a talking point, with many trolling it big time. The makers released an extended cut on OTT, but it did not significantly change the outcome.
The Raja Saab OTT release faces trolls
Many scenes have been pulled out by netizens and are being heavily trolled on social media. Once again, the focus is on Prabhas, as his VFX work has been used in many scenes, creating a troll factor for the film.
Director Maruthi, who helmed the film, is nowhere to be seen even after the OTT release. The lack of a Hindi OTT release has upset viewers big time, and one needs to see when the film will finally stream.
Which film is Prabhas shooting as of now?
As for Prabhas, he is busy shooting for Spirit. Once he completes a small schedule, he has allocated bulk dates for his other film, Fauji. He will be shooting back-to-back for the next two months and will wrap up that film.
As usual, he is staying away from the media. It remains to be seen what kind of views The Raja Saab garners on OTT. As of now, it is trending at the number one spot and can be streamed here on OTTplay Premium.
