Prabhas to kickstart new year with Saaho

Baahubali actor Prabhas is all set to welcome New Year with a gruelling schedule of his upcoming film Saaho.

The actor, who is in Los Angeles, will be starting the next shoot by January 5 for a month-long schedule. “The team has so far shot for 40-45 days. We will start shooting for the major action sequence soon. We plan to release the film next year. But we will be able to finalise the exact date depending on the progress of the film,” says Prabhas.

For the next schedule, the team will be going to Abu Dhabi to shoot a high-octane chase sequence, which is one of the pivotal scenes of the film. A source says that the actor has undergone intense training for three months for the action sequence which will be carried out on moving vehicle.

“His physical preparation involves jogging, cardiovascular training, weight training, and Plyometrics obstacle races, all of which will help him pick up the moves easily. He trained six to seven hours daily to master his moves,” adds the source.

Prabhas is also working on his Hindi as the film is trilingual — Telugu, Tamil and Hindi. His co-star Shraddha Kapoor has been helping him with the diction when they were shooting together for 15 days.
