Saaho

Saaho is entertaining. It is a proper Bollywood Masala movie. We all know it is one of the highest-budget Bollywood movies of all time.

Aug 15 2019, The Independence Day, was supposed to have 3 blockbuster movies released. Mission Mangal, Batla House and Saaho. However, Saaho postponed their release. The movie went on to be a blunder. Most of them didn't like it. They weren't even sure where it was leading too. There was too much of pace, action. The first half seemed to be perfectly set for a mind-boggling Action Crime movie. It didn't turn out to be so. The second half ruined everything. There were few surprises and Suspense at the end, which not only made no sense, also, were a little too much. Disappointed with the climax as well. Prabhas is a renowned and magnificent actor. His Hindi wasn't upto the mark. Some characters looked complex and confused.

1) Prabhas Hindi sucks 2) Imaginary UnderWorld sucks 3) Chunkey Pandey is wasted as villain. 4) Songs don't do justice to Prabha's iconic image.

The only two thing I found good about the experience of seeing Saaho is actions and cheap tickets for admission.

Sahoo directed by Sujeeth starring Prabhas and Shradha Kapoor is nothing but a disaster. Story is very normal and twists are always expected with confusing screenplay. Nothing in the film goes coherent. Very poor comic timing by Prabhas. No character has put on weight to the story and very poor performance by most of the characters. Prabhas got a great opportunity after Bahubali (A directer Master Piece) sequence but failed miserable to pull it. Songs had the worst timing with terrible lyrics. Some scenes are no relevant to story but tried to elevate Prabhas but again failed miserably. I felt like 170 Mins of terrible Screen Play with Non coherent story telling.

The base story is good. Audience are left in confusion in many scenes. Many Action sequences are illogical. Intermission and climax is good. Good acting by all actors. Boring songs. All villains are great.

I have seen several flop or below average films in my life but this movie tops it all. I wanted to get out of the theatre at several instances while watching this movie. Had lot of expectations after seeing the buzz this movie got. Even an average director/writer could have written and directed a film more better compared to this disaster. The actors were good but there was no purpose, drama or any point to the action scenes shown apart from way too many overly done Hero elevation scenes(I sincerely hope Telugu films get past this format). All in all, it's a headache and people should be paid to sit through this entire film. Director should quit, producers should learn their lesson and lead actors, please pick good scripts as the audience come to the theatre looking at you and your faces.
