The unprecedented fan frenzy surrounding Pan-India star Prabhas\u2019 latest release \u2018The Raja Saab\u2019 led to a tense situation at a movie theatre in Odisha\u2019s Rayagada district, where a fire reportedly broke out during the film\u2019s screening. Fortunately, a major tragedy was averted as prompt action by fans and theatre staff prevented the blaze from spreading further.<\/p>\n

According to sources, the fire incident occurred after enthusiastic fans burst firecrackers inside or near the theatre premises while celebrating the screening of \u2018The Raja Saab\u2019, which released on Friday and has been receiving an overwhelming response from audiences across the country and abroad.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The sudden fire caused panic among moviegoers for a brief period. However, alert fans quickly intervened and managed to douse the flames before it could cause significant damage to the theatre or result in any casualties.<\/p>\n

The craze for The Raja Saab has reached extraordinary levels, with fans turning movie screenings into grand celebrations. In some places, fans were even seen bringing a crocodile to theatres, recreating a scene featured in the film, further reflecting the intense enthusiasm surrounding the release.<\/p>\n

The Raja Saab marks Prabhas\u2019 return to the big screen after nearly two years following his blockbuster Salaar. With massive advance bookings and packed theatres, the film is expected to continue its strong box-office run. Trade analysts predict that the film could emerge as Prabhas\u2019 hat-trick blockbuster after Kalki 2898 AD and Salaar, with expectations of crossing the Rs 100-crore mark on its opening day.<\/p>\n

Despite the fire incident, the film\u2019s successful opening underscores Prabhas\u2019 unmatched stardom and the extraordinary devotion of his fans.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
