Overseas audience likes to encourage novel attempts and content driven films. However, family entertainers continue to rule the roost in the overseas market.
A Aa, a full-fledged family drama turned out to be the highest grosser in US this year. Trivikram’s brand value and the content that appeals to the family audience made A Aa a bigger hit than star studded high budget films.
Also a small film like Pelli Chupulu collected over $ 1 Million proved that there is nothing does better than ‘wholesome entertainment’ in this region.
Brahmotsavam and Sardaar Gabbar Singh that were bought for exorbitant price ended up as the biggest disasters in overseas in spite of collecting over one million dollars.
NTR’s Nannaku Prematho collected $ 2 Million and Janatha Garage did $ 1.8 Million business proving the star’s growing popularity in this territory.
Ram Charan’s long wait for a Million Dollar film finally came to end with Dhruva that has collected close to $ 1.4 Million already. Total eight straight films have collected over $ 1 Million in overseas.
Films like Ekkadiki Pothavu Chinnavada, Nenu Sailaja and Gentleman couldn’t breach the Million Dollar mark, but turned out to be good profit earners for the buyers.
