When Prabhas was asked about the same, he made it clear while talking to Mumbai Mirror, “Bahubali has set the bar high, but Saaho was a Rs 250 crore film, so I knew I couldn’t charge my usual remuneration. I started out with a 20 per cent cut. Then, the film went slightly over and though my friends were ready to pay up, I couldn’t take their money knowing they were putting in so much without thinking of what they’d earn.”

So, contrary to Rs 100 crore rumours, Prabhas is actually taking a pay cut of about 20 per cent for Saaho. The magnum opus also features Shraddha Kapoor as the female lead opposite him. Written and directed by Suheeth, Saaho was earlier supposed to hit the theatres on 15th August, is likely to release on August 30.
