Just a day after its release, Prabhas' horror-comedy film The Raja Saab has been leaked online, prompting a crackdown by Hyderabad's cybercrime police. The movie, which opened to lukewarm reviews from critics, has reportedly been streamed on pirate websites. In a shocking turn of events, a restaurant in Ohio, USA, allegedly played a pirated version of the film on TV. The incident was captured on video and shared on social media, sparking outrage among fans. Despite this, the film's US distributor, Prathyangira Cinemas, announced that The Raja Saab has crossed the $2 million gross mark in the region in just two days. The Hyderabad police have shifted their focus to another alleged pirate, Naveen, who is suspected of running the pirate websites 5movierulz and 1tamilmv. The police have confirmed that camcorder prints of the latest films, including The Raja Saab and Dhurandhar, are being recorded online. The Raja Saab, directed by Maruthi and produced by People Media Factory and IVY Entertainment, stars Prabhas, Sanjay Dutt, and Nidhhi Agerwal. The film tells the story of a man searching for his missing grandfather, only to uncover dark secrets about his family's past. The film has grossed ₹138.30 crore worldwide, with the majority of the earnings coming from its India release.
