Prabhas's previous film Baahubali 2 has not only shattered the Tollywood records but also the Indian cinema records and has set a bar too high for any film to reach.
No wonder other top stars had to compete for the second spot (in fact third place), that are famously referred to as Non-Baahubali records.
Most of the credit of Baahubali was given to Rajamouli's vision and execution, but we cannot take anything away from Prabhas who brought the fictional character to life.
It is a huge burden on any actor to meet the humongous expectations after such a gargantuan success.
Prabhas is smart enough to choose a film that caters to pan Indian audience and of a scale that is on par with Baahubali.
Saaho directed by Sujeeth and bankrolled by UV Creations is the most expensive non-franchise film in Indian cinema history.
Can Prabhas and Team Saaho live up to the hype that was never seen or heard of?
Greatandhra brings to you the Saaho experience and all the excitement of this gripping fare live via tweet review.
Saaho U/A. 171 Min
Movie begins with the story of Roy (Jackie), a don who runs Waaji city.
Central Minister Ramaswamy Allagadda (Tanikella) has been kidnapped.
An Attack on Roy in Mumbai and the film is shifted to Mumbai.
Undercover cop Ashok Chakravarthy is deputed to solve the case.
Intro of Prabhas in a rain drenched Mumbai, an umbrella in hand. A very ordinary scene. Such a bad hairstyle of Prabhas.
Introduction of Arun Vijay as Viswak.
Introduction of Shraddha Kapoor as police officer.
Scenes of investigation of a crime are going on. Prabhas, Vennela Kishore, Murali Sharma and Shraddha are the officers.
Introduction of Neil Nithin.
First song is here. Psycho Sayyan. Just 2 min song.
Movie is going dull and boring way.
An attack on Kalki Gopalacharya (Mandira Bedi) in Mumbai.
Now time is for second song "Ninnalu Marichela" , shot on Prabhas and Shraddha in the exotic locations.
Interval twist is on the expected lines.
Second half begins with a flashback of Jackie.
Now police are after Prabhas whose real name is Saaho.
Now Prabhas showcases his bare chest and time for Bad Boy song.
Scenes are example of mindless direction by Sujeeth. The so-called scene of " Fans, Die Hard Fans" is ackwardly bad.
Now time for another song "Baby Won't You Tell Me"
Clearly Sujeeth has not written any script, has jotted down some action pieces and songs.
The final action episode in Dubai are going on. This part is very interesting.
After 20 mins huge action episode, another big fight is going on.
And begins another action episode.... marathon
Movie ends.
