The Raja Saab trailer 2.0
The 3-minute-long trailer of The Raja Saab seems to reveal more about the film’s story than the initial trailer did. It begins with Prabhas’ character remarking how his grandmother, played by Zarina Wahab, is prone to forgetting everyone but a character, played by Sanjay. She lovingly calls her grandson ‘Raja Saab’, who decides to take on the spirit of Sanjay, a hypnotist prone to haunting his grandmother in her nightmares.
Prabhas visits an abandoned haveli to learn more about the hypnotist, with the trailer hinting that it was a trap to lure him there all along. He seems stuck in a house that hypnotises him and those with him at every move. Despite putting up a fight at every move, it ends with Prabhas channelling the hypnotist in one scene, where he sports grey hair and DC’s Joker in another, where his face is painted to look like a clown.
