Prabhas benefited from Saaho more than Baahubali

Prabhas benefited from Saaho more than Baahubali. Prabhas attained national and international fame with his intense and powerful performance in Rajamouli's magnum opus Baahubali. He became a pan-India star and is now the highest-paid actor in the country. He has four films that entered into the Rs 100crs club on the first day itself and they included Baahubali -The Beginning, Baahubali The Conclusion, Saaho, and Adipurush.

Many are under the impression that Baahubali became the game-changer for Prabhas. But inside talk, it was Saaho and Baahubali, which changed Prabhas' fortunes. A top distributor said "Prabhas was just waiting patiently but no Hindi producer tapped his door despite the ‘Baahubali’ series rocking the box office across the world,"

He said "With ‘Saaho’ being a regular commercial Bollywood potboiler and Prabhas pulling it off with his charisma and swag, Hindi film producers owned him up and rushed to his doorstep with fancy offers. Films like ‘Adhipurush’ happened during this time,"  He said that this forced Prabhas' friends Vamsi and Pramod of UV. Creations to open an office in Mumbai.

Prabhas is currently busy with projects like Salaar, Project K, Spirit, and a film with Maruthi.
