Prabhas in Abu Dhabi to shoot the next schedule of Saaho

After the earth-shattering success of Baahubali: The Beginning and Baahubali: The Conclusion, Prabhas has become a superstar whose popularity is not restricted to Telugu cinema only. He is a global star now with a fan following spread far and wide.

After spending almost five years of his life on the making of the Baahubali film series, the megastar is currently working on his next project, titled Saaho. Prabhas, who wrapped up the first shooting schedule of the movie in Hyderabad and Mumbai recently, has now headed to Abu Dhabi to commence the second schedule which will conclude in 50 days wherein the star will shoot for some high octane action and chase sequences. His co-stars Shraddha Kapoor and Chunky Panday will join him soon.


Spilling some more beans on the schedule, a source says, “The international schedule will see Prabhas shoot for high-octane action, including a major chase sequence involving helicopters, trucks, cars and bikes. He has been prepping for these portions for a while now and has modified his workout regime to get into perfect shape for his part. He will be seen in a completely different avatar and has even cut his hair short after years of doing the two-period films."

Multilingual Saaho, which is being shot in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi, is a Sujeeth directorial.

Humayun Saeed opens up on 'Love Guru' and Pakistani cinema’s success

From commanding television screens in powerful dramas to headlining box office hits, the acclaimed actor and producer has built a formidable reputation through instinct, charm, and a commitment to relatable storytelling. Along the way, he has picked up numerous awards, loyal audiences across the globe, and even crossed into international territory with his nuanced portrayal of Dr Hasnat Khan – Princess Diana’s real-life love interest – in the globally acclaimed Netflix series The Crown.

Now, Saeed returns to the big screen with this week’s Eid al-Adha release Love Guru. The romantic comedy, opposite Mahira Khan, features him as a matchmaker-turned-marriage-saboteur on a surprisingly unorthodox mission of love. Extensively shot in the UK and laced with a contemporary sensibility, the Nadeem Baig-directed comedy marks a distinct tonal shift for an actor best known for culturally rooted blockbusters.

Thug Life reviews say Kamal Haasan shines but Mani Ratnam’s gangster epic falls flat


Thug Life brings together two giants of Indian cinema, director Mani Ratnam and actor Kamal Haasan, for the first time since their 1987 classic Nayakan. Hopes were understandably sky-high, especially following Ratnam’s recent success with the Ponniyin Selvan films. Unfortunately, the film struggles to match the weight of its own ambition.

A promising start with technical brilliance

The film opens with style. A gritty voiceover by Haasan sets the tone, followed by a black-and-white flashback in Old Delhi that is visually stunning and thematically rich. Ravi K Chandran’s cinematography and A. Sreekar Prasad’s editing stand out, creating a slick first act filled with betrayal, tension, and dramatic flair.
