Prabhas and Shraddha Kapoor starrer Saaho mania began on August 30, but could not continue for longer. The reason for that is because morning shows for Saaho, especially for the Hindi version were cancelled at many places. This would definitely lead to some setback in the opening of the much-awaited film.

Prabhas' much-awaited outing post Baahubali, in the form of Saaho, was expected to earn Rs. 20 crore from the Hindi version. However there could definitely be major drop in Saaho opening since the morning shows were canned at many places. The reason for the stalling was that 2k prints did not arrive on time.

As per reports, these prints could not make it on time to several towns of Northern India, which is why the business of the film began there post afternoon, thus giving away majority of the morning crowd. It is also a working Friday which means those who could make time for first day first show did not get to see the movie either.

Made on budget of Rs. 350 crore, Saaho, which was previously slated for Independence Day release, now will have a solo release on August 30, 2019. Directed by Sujeeth and produced by UV Creations and T-Series, Saaho is Prabhas' debut in Hindi films. He had last appeared in the lead role in SS Rajamouli's epic drama Baahubali. Apart from Prabhas and Shraddha, the movie also stars Neil Nitin Mukesh, Jackie Shroff, Mahesh Manjrekar, Chunky Panday, Arun Vijay, Murali Sharma and Mandira Bedi in pivotal roles.
