As per the trade analyst Girish Johar, the expectations from Saaho are pretty much high considering the fact that Prabhas is a megastar down south. He has got a massive fan following over there. In Hindi belt, he also has a good following because of the biggest hit Baahubali to his credit.

Predominantly, Saaho will fare better down south. Amidst all the hype and expectations, the film has received mixed reviews from both the critics and the audience. After Baahubali, it has become the second Indian film to open with Rs 100+ crores. It is such an important figure that other films fail to achieve in their lifetime run.
