Performances:
Prabhas delivers his best performance through Saaho. The actor looks stunning and stylish in the assignment. He performed well in the action episodes and he is a treat to watch. Though the love story doesn’t sound good, his chemistry with Shraddha Kapoor has been decent. Shraddha has a performing role and the actress did her job well. She even surprised in the action episodes. Jackie Shroff, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Vennela Kishore, Murali Sharma, Arun Vijay, Mandira Bedi, Evelyn Sharma, Supreeth and Mahesh Manjrekar played crucial roles and they did their roles well.
Saaho has a lean plot and the screenplay looks extremely poor. The dialogues made no impact and Sujeeth’s direction looks pathetic. The music appeals to a limited section of the audience and Ghibran’s background score has been top-notch. The cinematography work and the VFX effects looked decent. The production values looked grand and the editing work should has been better.
Verdict:
Saaho is a huge disappointment in many ways. Right from the script, the film has not been taken enough care of. Can be given a skip.
Rating : 2.25/5
