At the time when he was shooting for SS Rajamouli’s Baahubali, Prabhas committed to work with young directors Sujeeth and Radha Krishna. While Sujeeth’s Saaho is currently on floors, his film with Radha Krishna is going to be launched very soon.
Saaho was initially supposed to hit the screens in 2018. But, the extensive production phase and the delay in key shooting schedules are likely to push its release to mid next year. So, Prabhas is planning to release Radha Krishna’s film before Saaho.
It is heard that he will simultaneously shoot for both films and the shooting formalities of Radha Krishna’s film will be wrapped up in quick time as the makers are aiming for Sankranthi next year.
Pooja Hegde has been finalized as the film’s leading lady and it is going to be a pure romantic entertainer.
It's business-smart for Prabhas to go ahead and release his next and not wait for Saaho which may be another multi-year production that Prabhas cannot afford at this time.
