Raja Saab trailer: ‘Demons’ Prabhas and Sanjay Dutt lock horns in a mind-bending tale that blurs the line between fiction and reality. Watch

“He’s not just some street magician who knows a few spells. He’s an exorcist, psychiatrist, and hypnotist. He’s playing with our brains,” Boman Irani describes the antagonistic character played by Sanjay Dutt. “Then let’s settle this in a fight between two stars. Star Wars!” Prabhas declares as we see another of his avatars, who is equally powerful. “I am the demon,” he proclaims, setting the stage for the “biggest horror fantasy ever in Indian cinema,” where two devils lock horns.
