Trade Concludes Why Saaho Worked Only in Hindi

‘Saaho‘ was a disappointment, especially, for the Telugu fans of Prabhas and of course, the business of the movie has suffered as it was a disaster in terms of collections in the Telugu States, Prabhas’ home turf and also in Tamil and Malayalam.

Surprisingly, the movie worked in Hindi and it wasn’t a flop there and everywhere else, ‘Saaho’ bombed big time. So, what are Bollywood trade pundits thinking about this miracle that happened exclusively in Hindi despite the fact that the movie was criticised heavily?

The explanation was simple. Bollywood audiences are starving for Big Screen entertainers. That kind of movies that are rarely made in Bollywood nowadays. So, the expectations on ‘Saaho’ were heavy and even though, it didn’t reach the expectations, ‘Saaho’ managed to be a hit as North audiences watched it.

Bollywood audiences are mostly looking towards Hollywood and South movies are big entertainment and ‘Saaho’ came at the right time. If the content had been better, it would have worked wonders at Bollywood box-office.
