Plot

Narantak Roy, the crime boss of Waaji City's underworld, is killed in a deliberate car crash in Mumbai. Devraj, the son of a former crime boss, declares himself the next leader of the crime syndicate. Ibrahim reveals to Kalki, legal advisor of the Roy Group that Roy's family has been killed and he has been raising a secret for 25 years. The secret was that he had a son named Vishwank. Vishwank foils Devraj's plans by succeeding his father as the next boss. Vishwank is determined to unmask his father's murderer.

The story turns to India, where a mastermind steals about two trillion rupees with ease. A nationwide manhunt ensues to find the culprit. Undercover agent, Ashok Chakravarthy, who is extremely secretive, is assigned head of the manhunt. Working with Amritha Nair, an officer he likes, they uncover a thief named Jai and trap him, believing him to be the culprit. Amritha and Ashok fall in love. There is a chase in which Amritha, Ashok, and David (a hacker) confront Jai. In a twist, it is revealed that the thief "Jai" is the real undercover police officer Ashok Chakravarthy: the lead officer that has been with them the entire time is actually the real thief who stole the two trillion rupees, Saaho. As Saaho escapes with his partner David, Amritha, along with the entire police department, is left stunned.

It is revealed that Devraj killed Roy in order to take Roy's place. Amritha tracks Saaho and pretends that she is still in love with him but is actually helping Ashok. However, she actually falls for Saaho and betrays Ashok. When Amritha is shot and taken away by Devraj, Saaho is forced to give him the black box, the key to the locker holding the money of all the gangsters. However, he deceives Devraj and gives the black box to Vishwank. Saaho destroys Devraj's building and steals the money he had. He is chased by Ashok and the police, with a sniper in a helicopter aiming at him. Amritha, also in the helicopter, tries to save Saaho by distracting the sniper, but the sniper pushes her into danger. Saaho saves her with a jet pack but is arrested.

Kalki is revealed to be on Devraj's side. She opens the vault with Vishwank's fingerprint and the black box and finds pictures of Roy and his son. Saaho battles Devraj's goons and defeats them. Devraj arrives, and Saaho reveals that he is Siddhant Nandan Saaho, the real son of Roy. He also reveals that he did all this to avenge his father's death. Ashok and Amritha learn Saaho's real identity as well. Kalki sees a portrait of Roy and Saaho in the vault, shocking all of them. Saaho kills Devraj, finally avenging his father's death.

Ibrahim reveals that Vishwank was not Roy's son, but Ibrahim's own son; his real name is Iqbal. Iqbal was there to save Roy's throne. He reveals Saaho's real identity to the gang members, and Saaho becomes the next king of the underworld. Months later, Saaho locates Amritha in Innsbruck, Austria and confesses his love; they share a kiss. In the distance, a sniper aims at Saaho as he opens his eyes, aware of the danger.

Cast

Production

The film was produced on a budget of 350 crore.[5] The film was shot in Austria, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Romania, and other parts of Europe.[18][19] Principal photography began in August 2017. Arun Vijay, Jackie Shroff, Lal, Neil Nitin Mukesh, and Mandira Bedi were roped in along with the leads, Prabhas and Shraddha Kapoor. A large part of the budget was spent to shoot the action scenes in the film. International stunt coordinator Kenny Bates was brought in to choreograph the action scenes.[20] Arun Vijay grew his hair out to portray his character in Saaho.[21]

The first schedule of the film, which was in Hyderabad, was completed by October 2017.[22] The second schedule of the film began in December 2017 at Ramoji Film City. According to the producers of the film, Shraddha Kapoor had shot action sequences in the film with heavy weaponry.[23] After a few days, they shifted to Dubai for a month where some of the major action sequences were shot with Prabhas and Neil Nitin Mukesh, while Shraddha Kapoor switched to her next venture, Stree.[24] After shooting half of the film in Hyderabad, Mumbai, and Dubai, the cast and crew of Saaho began with the fourth schedule of the film in Abu Dhabi in February 2018 and ended within a few weeks. The fifth schedule of the film, also in Abu Dhabi, started in late-February. The sixth schedule of the film began in mid-March in Dubai and Romania. The final leg of film and romantic songs were shot in Innsbruck and in the Tyrol region of Austria.[25][26][27][28][29][30][31]

An action sequence, which features in an exceptionally long period of the screenplay, was shot extensively near the Burj Khalifa; 25 crores from the budget had been spent. Prabhas had gone under rigorous training, which involved cardiovascular and weight training, and plyometric obstacle races. Prabhas praised his co-star Shraddha Kapoor, stating that she was the best choice for her character. She holds a strong character in the film, while Prabhas' character is a grey-shaded fictitious role.[32] He plays the character of a cop which will keep the audience guessing until the end.[33]

The film features some underwater sequences with Prabhas, who had learned scuba diving in preparation.[34] Prabhas will be dubbing his own lines in the Hindi version, while a professional dubbing artist will dub for Shraddha Kapoor in the Telugu version.[35] The film features Neil Nitin Mukesh as the antagonist. Mandira Bedi, who is known for her grey roles on the small screen, will play an out and out negative role in the film also.[36]

Choreographer Vaibhavi Merchant shot two romantic songs. The shoot initially began in Austria's Alpine city of Innsbruck, including the House of Music and trams in Innsbruck, Finstertal in Kühtai, and Adlers Hotel. Some scenes were also shot at the nearby town of Seefeld. Additionally, romantic songs were shot at the "Top of Tyrol" viewing platform on Stubai Glacier, the Restaurant ice Q in Sölden, the Swaroski Crystal Worlds, and the Highline179 suspension bridge at Reutte in the Tyrol region. The production also shot some parts of a romantic song at Redbull's Hangar 7 at Salzburg Airport. Robinville and Creative Creatures were service producers for the Austria schedule.[37][38][39][40][41]

Lakshana N Palat from India Today has given one and a half out of five stars calling Saaho "a 350-crore disaster" and that it is a "laboured and exhausting watch". She has added that "the saving grace of Saaho are the visuals and the high-octane action sequences" and that "the makers got so carried away with crafting action scenes and Prabhas' starry presence that they forgot about the story and character development midway".[64]

Writing for The Times of India, Thinkal Menon rated Saaho two and a half stars out of five, praising the technical aspects while criticising the script. Menon additionally stated how the film was "largely dubbed in Tamil, leading to lip-sync issues".[65] Taran Adarsh gave the film one and a half stars out of five, commenting on its "weak story, confusing screenplay and amateur direction".[66]
