A report in Box Office India states that “Saaho performed superbly well in Mumbai / Gujarat and CPCI as well as Marathawada. Gujarat and CPCI had numbers which were second only to Bharat this year. Taking into account the limited business in the South and the release issues this is a 30 crore nett opening in real value and on a non holiday.”

SpotboyE Editor Vickey Lalwani rated the film with 2.5 stars
and wrote, “In comes Prabhas who tries to sleepwalk through his role but
trips--- partially due to his diction, not to forget that unrequired cockiness
he puts on his face throughout for some inexplicable reason. In comes Shraddha
Kapoor, clings on to her big catch of working with Prabhas (which means puts
her best foot forward) but that's about it. Not her fault frankly, she does
what she has been asked to do in her part, which has sorely not been weaved
deeply into the story. In comes Neil Nitin Mukesh and sends me on a wild-goose
chase for his first impactful expression. I am left empty-handed till the end
unless I missed a solitary one.”
