Even though many Bollywood actresses were sought after for the lead role opposite Prabhas, the actor firmly wanted only a Telugu actress opposite him. The source told DNA, “Prabhas feels he owes it to the Telugu movie industry to work with the local talent. Although several A-list heroines from Bollywood were considered, he has finally decided to work with a Telugu actress in Saaho.”
The source also added, “Another major schedule will happen in Abu Dhabi and then, some songs and stunts will be shot in different parts of Europe. The film will be shot simultaneously in Hindi and Telugu, and will be wrapped by the end of the year. Prabhas took five years to complete Baahubali. Saaho will be finished and released in six months.”
Saaho is directed by Sujeeth and will be taken in both Hindi and Telugu. After completing Saaho, Prabhas is to work with Karan Johar, the distributor of the Baahubali franchise in Hindi.
