Can I leave?” Well, Sahoo was one of the most anticipated movies of the South Indian actor fans were going gaga with the thriller movie. However, it did not perform well on the box office.
At the event, Prabhas revealed that he did not want to give two years of his life to Saaho but the action sequences demanded it. “Actually, I did not want to give two years for this film because I already gave four years for Baahubali,” he said.
“But for the action sequences, we need a lot of preparation. For some action scenes, like the Abu Dhabi chase, we were working for almost a year. A lot of preparation and rehearsals are required. I need to support the director and the producers who spent too much,” he added.
According to reports, the makers of Saaho spent a staggering Rs 90 crore just on filming the action sequences in Abu Dhabi. Hollywood stunt choreographer Kenny Bates has been roped in for the film. Quite an ensemble but to no effect.
