One of the biggest duds this year at USA Box-office is Sai Dharam Tej's 'Winner'. The movie that premiered on Thursday has not improved its collections from Premiere shows to Sunday.
Thu $29, 290, Fri $18,309, Sat $23,456, Sun $9828 Total Weekend Gross: $81k
Sai Dharam Tej didn't have market in USA but these openings are too low for a star of his range. The distributors would end up losing 70 percent on the investment.
"Winner" is performing well in Indian market but it has already become a huge disaster at USA box-office.
"Winner" has Rakul Preet Singh as heroine. It is directed by Gopichand Malineni whose "Balupu" did perform in decent manner at North American box-office. But he didn't attract the audiences in USA with "Winner".
