Telangana Fans Question Silence as The Raja Saab Advance Bookings Remain Closed in Hyderabad
Confusion and frustration are mounting among moviegoers in Hyderabad and across Telangana as advance bookings for The Raja Saab remain unopened, even as premiere shows draw closer. By 10 a.m. on the expected opening day for ticket sales, major ticketing platforms showed no listings for Telangana, triggering widespread anger and speculation on social media particularly on X (formerly Twitter).
What Are People Asking?
The core question dominating online discussions is simple:
Why are advance bookings and premiere show tickets still not open in Hyderabad and Telangana?
In recent big-ticket Telugu releases, advance bookings especially in Hyderabad typically open early to accommodate massive demand. However, in the case of The Raja Saab, no official update has been issued explaining the delay.
Fans and exhibitors alike are left guessing, with many pointing out that other states and regions have begun preliminary show planning, while Telangana remains in the dark.
Social Media Backlash Intensifies
As the hours passed without clarification, the hashtag related to The Raja Saab trended on X, with users openly questioning the silence from the film’s stakeholders. Many posts criticised the lack of communication from the production and distribution side, noting that:
- No timing confirmation was shared for advance booking
- No clarification was given regarding Telangana-specific release logistics
- Official social media handles remained inactive on the issue
Several users also highlighted that this uncertainty directly affects theatre owners, fans planning premiere shows, and audiences travelling from nearby districts to Hyderabad for first-day screenings.
Silence From the Makers Raises Eyebrows
What has further intensified the backlash is the absence of any response from the film’s key stakeholders:
- People Media Factory
- Maitri Movie Makers
- Director Maruthi
- Lead actor Prabhas
- The official The Raja Saab social media accounts
As of now, none of these have issued a statement or update addressing the booking delay in Telangana or Hyderabad. For a film carrying high expectations and a large fan base, the lack of transparency has surprised many industry observers.
Why Telangana Matters So Much
Hyderabad is not just another market it is one of the most critical revenue centres for Telugu cinema. Premiere shows, early-morning screenings, and fan-driven celebrations often generate significant opening-day momentum.
Industry insiders say even a short delay in communication can lead to misinformation, panic among exhibitors, and negative sentiment online exactly what is unfolding now.
Possible Reasons but No Confirmation
While no official explanation has been given, trade circles are discussing a few possibilities:
- Pending final approvals for premiere show timings
- Theatre allocation or revenue-sharing negotiations
- Last-minute distribution or logistics coordination
However, these remain unconfirmed. Without an official word, speculation continues to dominate the conversation.
Fans Demand Clarity, Not Hype
What stands out in this episode is that fans are not asking for promotional hype—they are asking for basic clarity. A simple update confirming when bookings will open could have prevented much of the backlash currently unfolding online.
Instead, the silence has allowed anger and confusion to fill the gap.
What Happens Next?
As of publication, advance bookings for The Raja Saab in Hyderabad and Telangana remain unavailable, with no confirmed time announced for opening. Trade analysts believe that an official clarification is inevitable, but every passing hour increases dissatisfaction among audiences.
For now, the spotlight is firmly on the makers to address the issue and restore confidence before frustration overshadows the film’s release momentum.
