Speaking to Mid Day, Jackie said, "I am happy to be a part of Saaho with Prabhas, who is one of the biggest actors in India at the moment. It's wonderful to know that he trusts me and thinks I can pull off this kind of a role. I have seen both the films of the Baahubali series and loved them," he said.

While Bollywood actor Chunkey Pandey will be the second antagonist, Neil Nitin Mukesh, who got fame in Tamil with Kaththi, will be seen as a tech-savvy nerd.
