The tentpole action movie Saaho was expected to take the box office by storm and it has indeed lived up to the hype on its day 1.
The film has been receiving scathing reviews for its content, but the superstardom of Prabhas and the ‘must watch’ vibe it has created before the release has helped it to post record numbers on its first day.
Saaho has recorded the all time second highest opening day numbers for an Indian movie. Only Baahubali 2 has better numbers than Saaho now.
It means the film has set a new bar for Non-Baahubali movies too.
The film has collected close to Rs. 75 crore share worldwide on its day 1 and will continue to rake in big numbers until Monday.
Director Sujeeth has made a lousy film with copied themes and concepts from various Hollywood films.
He has wasted a golden opportunity and the film now entirely relies upon Prabhas’s stardom to go forward.
Meanwhile, Evaru has surpassed lifetime collections of Gudachari and has become the highest grossing movie in Adivi Sesh’s career. But Goodachari will still remain the biggest hit in terms of return on investment.
