What is the final result of “Saripodhaa Sanivaaram”? It's too early to say for certain, but one thing is clear: the film is a dud in Hindi and other languages.
Nani has been trying to establish a pan-Indian image, promoting his films in cities like Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, and others. However, except for the Tamil audience, viewers of other languages are not taking his films seriously.
In India, the Hindi version's four-day weekend collection is just 32 lakhs (net), while the Malayalam version grossed only Rs 5 lakhs (net) in the same period. These numbers show that Nani’s efforts to capture a pan-Indian market are not yielding results.
While the film collected decent revenue in the Telugu states despite the rains, it added almost nothing in other languages to its overall gross.
Nani should choose subjects that appeal to pan-Indian audiences rather than relying on Telugu-specific themes to gain a broader audience.
