Prabhas scores a hat-trick with Saaho

Prabhas has scored a hat-trick at the box office with his latest release Saaho. The film, which was released on August 30, has received a mixed critical response. But, despite that, there seems to be no stopping the film at the box office as the action thriller has become the third highest-grossing Telugu film ever.

The film now stands behind only to Baahubali: The Conclusion and Baahubali: The beginning — both also starring Prabhas. Interestingly, Prabhas has become the second South Indian actor, after Rajinikanth (Enthiran/Robo, Kabali, 2.0) to have the three biggest grossers in a language to his name.

Saaho has performed exceptionally well in the first weekend in domestic and overseas circuits. It has so far collected Rs 340.20 crore (gross) worldwide.

Saaho now has its eyes set on Baahubali: The Beginning which is second with a collection of Rs 600 crore (lifetime gross). Directed by Sujeeth, Saaho also stars Shraddha Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Chunky Pandey, Arun Vijay, and Mandira Bedi in crucial roles.
