4 Years Of Saaho: Revisiting Milestones That Prabhas Achieved For His Character
Sahoo: Prabhas, or Darling (by his ardent fans across the globe), has amassed a sizable fan base over the years and has become one of the most loved and worshipped actors in India.
On the occasion of one of his career's biggest hits, Saaho, completing 4 years today, we tell you how the superstar left a strong mark on the hearts of the audience and give you reasons to look into the world of this action thriller!
Tryst with Hindi!
While Prabhas is known to get into the skin of his characters and make them believable and relatable for the audience and his million followers, he took Hindi lessons and did a lot of homework to prepare for his character. Along with his dialogue teacher, Prabhas conducted dialogue classes for over a month and also dubbed for the same in Hindi.
Action-packed climax sequence with over 100 fighters!
When it comes to Prabhas, things are expected to be grand and extravagant! A team of 100 fighters from across the globe was hired for the larger-than-life action sequence featuring the superstar and the baddies.
It was choreographed by the internationally acclaimed director Peng Zhang of Hollywood biggies like The Last Samurai, Hellboy II: The Golden Army, and Rush Hour 3. It became one of the biggest USPs of the film.
Prabhas collaboration with international stunt coordinator Kenny Bates!
Prabhas' stunt sequences in the film have been shot extensively in Dubai, with the makers spending a huge chunk of the movie's estimated budget. Hollywood stunt director Kenny Bates had choreographed the stunts for the movie, and it was certainly one of its kind in the Indian film industry.
Interestingly, Kenny Bates was awestruck by Prabhas' commitment and was heavily impressed by the actor's attitude when it came down to pushing the envelope for action scenes.
Prabhas' impressive physical transformation as Saaho!
To play the role of a cop in the film, Prabhas had to tone it down to over 10 kgs for which he went on a strict diet that spread across seven different meals during the day.
Because workouts and training constituted a fundamental aspect of his weight loss regimen, he followed a diet that was rich in protein and carbohydrates.
Workwise, Prabhas next projects include Salaar with Shruti Haasan and Kalki AD 2989 with Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, and Kamal Hasan. He also has Spirit with Sandeep Reddy Vanga, and another untitled project with filmmaker Maruthi.
