By: Tupaki Desk | 26 Aug 2019 9:42 AM GMT
Prabhas has been promoting the movie, Saaho, all over the Country and the movie is set to release on 30th August. It is coming with a budget tag of Rs. 350 crores and young Sujeeth Sign directed the movie. It is his second film and that too, the movie is following a massive success like Baahubali-2. Gigantic amount of expectations are surrounding the project. Prabhas sat for a small chit-chat with Tupaki.com and here are the excerpts
Q: Hi Prabhas, we are very happy to do this interview with you in between your busy schedule. Did you find any changes within you after Baahubali?
Prabhas: I did not notice any changes within me. I believe Baahubali has given me some Identity Pan-India as an actor.
Q: It is a huge responsibility to follow up Baahubali-2 and the identity it has given you is enormous. Saaho is enjoying this craze because of that film, isn't it?
Prabhas: We cannot compare Baahubali and Saaho at all. Yes, Saaho did become this huge and a crazy project because of Baahubali but both are different films and we cannot compare them.
Q: Why did Saaho take this much time?
Prabhas: We planned an International level Action drama in Indian languages with Saaho. So, many technicians from Hollywood worked for the film. We did not plan the delay but each scene required many days of rehearsals, planning, set up and then producten design works took even more time as they needed to be meticulously planned. After all that, we had VFX work that delayed the film further. In fact, I started shooting for my next film Jaan, immediately after my part was shot completely, for the film, Saaho. Fans won't have to wait for Jaan, this long.
Q: Movie with Prabhas requires a minimum budget of Rs. 100 crores. Even Jaan is said to be a high budget film. How well is that film shaping up?
Prabhas: I believe in spending budget for a film, according to the requirements of the story. I won't pressurize any makers to put up huge budget because it is my film and I have a market. If story doesn't require such budget then it doesn't have to be such a big film. For Saaho, our goal is to entertain audiences with an International level action drama and it required time, massive budget. Jaan is also a big Budget film but the scale is not as huge as Saaho.
Q: You believed in a young director and the budget of Saaho is easily seven to eight times massive than any of Telugu films. Are you nervous?
Prabhas: I am actually very nervous as it is my own production. My family members and friends invested huge amounts in the film. But we did not believe in Sujeeth as much as we did in his story, at first. We wanted to see how he would handle the film during the first schedules and we got confidence on his working style as he handled many complicated issues with a level and cool head. My family members are confident about the success of the film more than me. Sujeeth dealt with each and every decision we made as a team for Saaho from taking Shraddha Kapoor as leading lady to huge action set pieces with maturity.
Q: Thank you for your time Prabhas. Tupaki.com wishes you all the best for Saaho. We hope it will be another Pan-Indian blockbuster for you and Telugu Cinema.
Prabhas: Thank you. Darlings, who are reading this interview, please watch the movie, Saaho in theatres only.
