Saaho release to be bigger than Baahubali
We hear that a guest appearance by a Bollywood superstar, most likely Salman Khan, is also being discussed.
The plans for Saaho seem to be getting bigger every week. One now hears that its producers are planning to release the film in multiple languages including Hindi, thereby answering the long-standing question of the leading man Prabhas’ Bollywood debut.
A source said, “Prabhas did receive a few good Bollywood offers, including one from Karan Johar. However, he didn’t find the offer convincing enough to justify his star status. Saaho, on the other hand, is a project Prabhas has full control of.” The producers and director Sujeeth have apparently been consulting Prabhas over every aspect of the film.
“Not a leaf stirs in Saaho without permission from Prabhas. He now wants to do an independent Hindi version of the film and is working on his accent so he can sound convincing in it,” said the source, adding that even a Chinese version of the film was in the pipeline. “The action scenes in Saaho have turned out to be on par with the action scenes in Hollywood films. The makers are looking at releasing Saaho on a much grander scale than Baahubali,” the source added.
We hear that a guest appearance by a Bollywood superstar, most likely Salman Khan, is also being discussed. Scheduled to release on August 15, Saaho will clash with Akshay Kumar’s Mission Mangal and John Abraham’s Batla House.
