10:15 am: Saaho's story revolves around a robbery of Rs 2 lakh crores by Chunky Pandey. While all the antagonists are in search of the money that Chunky has stolen and hidden, cops Prabhas and Shraddha are trying to figure out who has stolen the money and where is it.

Though she is a cop and it is her responsibility to save other people from the danger, she herself has to be saved by the ultimate hero Prabhas.
