Overview

  • The film began streaming on February 6 with an extended version that JioHotstar said was added after last-minute technical glitches.
  • The platform reported a surge in “Remind Me” clicks, acknowledged crashes for some users, and said it upgraded servers to handle the load.
  • Producers and the director offered differing estimates of restored material, with TG Vishwa Prasad citing about four minutes and Maruthi mentioning roughly eight to nine minutes.
  • The Raja Saab grossed around Rs 200–208 crore worldwide in cinemas, a figure widely reported as falling short of its high production budget.
  • Online mockery followed the extended-cut announcement, and producer SKN filed a complaint with Hyderabad cybercrime police over impersonation and derogatory posts.
