Director Sujeeth Reddy opens up about his experience of working with Baahubali star Prabhas in Saaho, which also stars Shraddha Kapoor
S. S. Rajamouli directorial Baahubali is undoubtedly one of the most amazing films ever made in the history of Indian cinema. Baahubali: The Beginning became the 4th-highest-grossing Indian film to date whereas the second instalment of the series titled Baahubali 2: The Conclusion became the 2nd-highest-grossing Indian film. Actor Prabhas, already a well-known name in the South industry, became a nation-wide superstar with his performance in the epic action film. He will next be seen in Sujeeth Reddy’s much-awaited film Saaho.
Sujeeth recently opened up about his experience of working with Prabhas. He said, “I did not feel the pressure to direct a big star like Prabhas. He has faith in me and my work and that matters the most to me. Also, the producers and the team members showed confidence in me. But now that the film is gearing for release in few months, I can feel the pressure.” The director also revealed that the script of Saaho was ready before Baahubali, and when it was narrated to Prabhas, he loved it.
Bollywood actress Shraddha Kapoor will be sharing the screen with Prabhas for the very first time. Talking about her role in the action-thriller, Sujeeth stated: “It is an important role for the female character. Shraddha drives the film to the end. It was a conscious decision to make my female characters strong. When we started working on the teaser, we had two options here - to go with Prabhas, considered as a huge star and you expect him to be there in the opening scene. And other was to begin it with Shraddha and we chose the latter.”
