Saaho team is looking for another great date

There have been reports that ‘Saaho’ will release on August 30. However, our sources say, the team is looking for a date that would give the film to release in a maximum number of screens nationwide. Bollywood market is the key.
 
The film will lock the date that will give it ‘free date’ in the North Indian market without competition from big Bollywood movies. They want to carpet-bomb the screens. 90 percent of screens should be allotted to ‘Saaho’ is the idea. This way they will get unprecedented openings.
 
UV Creations is now having discussions with T Series that bought Hindi rights. This Prabhas starrer high-end action thriller has suffered a huge setback by postponing it from August 15. It has lost a great holiday date. So, the team is also looking for another best possible date. August 30 is just a speculative date, not officially confirmed.
 
‘Saaho’ is produced by UV Creations and directed by Sujeeth. It is an action thriller made in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi and Malayalam languages. Rs 300 Cr is its official budget. The film has action stunts choreographed by Kenny Bates, Peng Zhang, Dhilip Subbarayan, Stunt Silva, Stefan, Bob Brown and Ram-Lakshman.
