Prabhas fans found themselves in a difficult position with Raja Saab, which turned out to be a major disaster in terms of theatrical collections and overall cinematic experience. The film failed to meet expectations and left many viewers disappointed.
This agony may not end anytime soon, as the makers are now preparing for its OTT debut on JioHotstar. Fans fear the film will face even stronger criticism once it becomes easily accessible to a wider audience.
Reportedly, the Prabhas film will start streaming on JioHotstar from February 6. This was officially confirmed by the OTT platform recently, making the release a topic of fresh discussion across social media platforms.
This could become another painful phase for fans, as online users are expected to dig deeper into body double allegations and mismatched sequences. These issues are likely to dominate conversations once the film starts streaming.
There is enough content in the film for trolls and anti groups to target it heavily. All this attention may increase after the OTT release, making it a problematic situation for Prabhas and his public image.
The face swap allegations are also expected to resurface in a damaging way. Prabhas may have to face renewed backlash, which could impact how audiences perceive his recent choices.
This situation could act as a harsh reminder for Prabhas to protect his superstardom. Choosing stronger scripts instead of random experiments might be crucial, as several recent projects have not delivered the desired results.
The OTT release may also prove difficult for Maruti. He is likely to be targeted extensively by certain social media groups, adding more pressure on him after the film’s wider digital exposure.
