Good movie. I was surprised to see such story being made in Bhaarat (India). Just like Indiana Jones, Tomb Raiders, National Treasure etc, this film is of Bhaarat origin and wow! It did not disappointed me. Though i saw the hindi dubbed, but I was fascinated by the twist and turns and its mysteriously brain-teaser plot. The story takes you to Pakistan and in a very interesting way. Good entertainer. One of the firsts of Taapsee Pannu too. Must watch.

I am surprised that no one later ever tried such plots. Good attempts on sets and riddle mechanics just like you see in the kinds National Treasure, Indiana Jones.

Although this is a fiction but based on epic plots and real things. Such as, Hinglaj Temple in Baluchistan and all.

Every Bhavsar should watch this movie.

Apart from few fight scenes the entire story was good & the best thing is every frame is engaging. Action, adventure was awesome and the story line was unique but in the climax giving away all the treasure was not convincing but for the effort of director would rate this movie.fight choreography spoiled this movie.if climax was written well then thismovie would have been a huge success. Gopichand& tapsee lead actor & actress was too good in performance.

Don't expect too much and you might actually like the movie. The director is a visionary and has written a story which transcends the borders of our country and due to budget issues this movie has been receiving criticism for the lack of story , underwhelming graphics and poor production values but it is important to note that the director did what he could knowing very well the budget constraints. The films had low budget because the concept of Pan-India was not released back then and it would be huge loss to the producers if the movie is good but they could not get the spent movie. Don't hate this movie and be genuine and this output should be taken into account and should be taken as inspiration.

Chandrasekhar Yeleti tends to come up with novel themes or ideas. In Sahasam, he has taken a concept of a treasure hunt which has not been seen in cinema for some time. He blends history, reality, fiction with a good dose of adventure and thrill which engages the viewer. Also, he imparts an ancient-medieval look to the film in the parts where it is necessary be it through sepia-tint, patina, cobwebs, etc which lends a certain authenticity.

However, in Pakistan, he has the locals talking in Telugu which seemed out of place and inaccurate.

Yeleti has been able to get the best out of his technicians be it his writing team, cinematographer Shamdat, editor Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao, music director Sri or art director Ramakrishna. Shamdat's camera is top-notch.He shoots the action sequences and the treasure hunt, especially towards the climax excellently.

Ramakrishna's art work, especially the set used for the climax, is commendable. Sri's background score was apt for this kind of a film. Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao's editing was fine too.

Gopichand carried the film ably on his shoulders showing the necessary emotions. Taapsee has done well in the film especially in certain sequences like the Buzkashi. Shakti Kapoor plays the menacing don to perfection. Ali doesn't have much to do.

Chandrasekhar Yeleti should be complimented for making such a different and engrossing film . Sahasam is certainly worth a watch!

I am a north indian I watched this movie in hindi. But I am so happy with this movie and great story, screenplay and comedy If this movie was made this time then they could have done very big by using high vfx but still they did a fabulous movie and I HAVE WATCHED THIS MOVIE MORE THAN 10 TIMES EVEN NOW I WATCH THIS MOVIE WHEN IT COMES IN TV .

Good Story And screenplay and decent acting. Overall a good decent movie

This movie really needs to be appreciated. Amongst all those action movies that are now a days a center of Indian cinema, this movie deserves to be praised. They fear to invest their money in these kind of movies, everyone wants to play safe.. but apparently there is hope. Highly recommended, a must watch movie!
