Despite being considered a subpar film by many, Saaho rode on Prabhas’ star power and the massive success of the Baahubali franchise to make its way to the top.
Saaho still reigns supreme in the overseas market among the three films, with a net collection of ₹78 Cr., with Devara: Part 1 closing in fast with its ₹76 Cr. present collection, according to reports.
Saaho’s global dominance feels quite hard to shake even after 5 years of its release.
As Prabhas turns a year older today, it’s worth praising how the standards set by a badly reviewed film like Saaho are still unbeatable by many.
