• Prabhas' horror-comedy 'The Raja Saab' opened to poor reviews and below-expectation collections on January 9.
• The film collected Rs 6.15 crore in Hindi and Rs 54.15 crore overall in India on its first day.
• 'The Raja Saab' opened 78% less than Ranveer Singh's 'Dhurandhar', which earned Rs 28 crore.
• Prabhas plays a laidback character, with the plot revolving around his grandmother Gangamma (Zarina Wahab) and Kanakraju (Sanjay Dutt).
