Prabhas and Shraddha Kapoor's Saaho is off to a flying start at the domestic box office and we would be lying if we say we didn't anticipate this. The buzz around his next outing was already so strong and its trailer and teaser had further piqued everyone's interest in the project, After registering over $1 million at the US box office, Saaho is eyeing for Rs 60-70 crore on its first day. That's across India of course but more on that later. Currently, let's talk about its Hindi version's collection.

As per trade analyst, Taran Adarsh, Saaho's Hindi version alone has managed to mint Rs 24.40 crore on its opening day. This makes the movie third-highest opening day grosser of 2019. Salman Khan's Bharat (Rs 42.3 crore) and Akshay Kumar's Mission Mangal (Rs 29.16 crore) still retain the top two spots.  Prabhas' action drama is followed by Kalank (Rs 21.60 crore) and Kesari (Rs 21.06 crore) as the top five Hindi releases with highest opening day figures.  Saaho Movie Public Review: Know What Fans Think Of Prabhas -  Shraddha Kapoor's Performance.

It's commendable to see Saaho perform so well in the Hindi market despite the morning shows getting cancelled in some parts of North due to unavailability of movie's print. Though critics are not really in favour of this action drama, his fandom is strong enough to not let his ship sink.
