After teasing fans with 30 seconds from "Psycho Saiyaan", which showed Prabhas and Shraddha Kapoor shaking a leg, the makers of Saaho released the full video song on Monday. The song features Prabhas and Shraddha Kapoor grooving to a peppy tune sung by Anirudh Ravichander, Dhvani Bhanushali and Tanishk Bagchi. Besides singing, Tanishk Bagchi has also composed music for the song.
Lyrics for the song was written by Sreejo.
Set inside a pub, the song sequence has Shraddha Kapoor showing off her dance moves, accompanied by Prabhas. The teaser of Saaho was released last month, and the movie seems to have a power-packed performance delivered by Prabhas. The teaser has Prabhas chasing and gunning down villains, leaping from buildings and making his way through fleets of vehicles.
The movie also marks Shraddha Kapoor’s debut in Tollywood. The actor plays an important role alongside Prabhas.
Saaho, directed by Sujeeth, is bankrolled by V Vamsi Krishna Reddy and Pramod Uppalapati under the banner UV Creations on a budget of Rs 300 crore. The film’s star cast also includes Neil Nitin Mukesh, Lal, Arun Vijay, Mandira Bedi, Jackie Shroff, Vennela Kishore, Mahesh Manjrekar and Chunky Pandey in supporting roles.
A Sreekar Prasad is the film's editor while Sabu Cyril is the production designer.
Saaho will be released in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi on August 15. There was some confusion over the release date initially since the makers wanted to avoid a clash with Chiranjeevi’s Sye Raa. Previously, it was touted to be a Sankranthi release but was postponed. The film is undoubtedly one of the most awaited releases this year as it happens to be Prabhas's first film after the astounding success of the Baahubali franchise.
The teaser has been released in four languages- Telugu, Tamil, Hindi and Malayalam.
