Recently, ‘Raja’ garnered an impressive 6.7 TRP rating, achieving a record that even films of current star heroes often struggle to attain.
The movie ‘Raja,’ featuring Victory Venkatesh as the hero and Soundarya as the heroine, was directed by Muppalaneni Siva, with Vikraman penning the story. Produced by R. B. Choudary under the Super Good Films banner and featuring music by S. A. Rajkumar, the film also saw Abbas in a crucial role, enjoying significant popularity at the time. Upon its release, ‘Raja’ achieved great success, with Venkatesh and Soundarya’s performances receiving high praise.
TRP King: Surpassing Today’s Hits
Despite 26 years having passed since its theatrical debut, the movie still boasts a large fan base, proving its enduring appeal. Consequently, even when telecast on the small screen today, ‘Raja’ consistently garners excellent TRP ratings. For instance, it previously aired and received a TRP rating in the range of 7.41, followed by a 5.5 rating when telecast again after a short gap. Just a few days ago, its recent telecast achieved a remarkable 6.7 TRP rating.
