Sankranthiki Vasthunam has emerged as Venkatesh's most successful blockbuster in North America, surpassing the lifetime gross of his previous hit, F2.
The film continues to enjoy strong box office performance and has the potential to extend its theatrical run for another week or more, further boosting its lifetime revenue.
It stands as the undisputed Sankranthi winner, not only becoming the most profitable venture of the festive season but also outperforming the films of Ram Charan and Balakrishna to claim the number one spot.
First Week Gross: $2.1M
Meanwhile, Daaku Maharaaj has finally reached its break-even point after nine days in theaters.
Despite an impressive opening day collection of $1 million, including premiere shows, the film lost momentum from day two onwards.
The release of Sankranthiki Vasthunam further impacted its performance, limiting the audience mainly to Balakrishna's core fan base. However, the film ultimately managed to break even.
9 Days Gross: $1.45M
On the other hand, Ram Charan and director Shankar's much-anticipated Game Changer turned out to be a major disappointment at the box office.
The film’s distributor suffered significant financial losses, estimated to exceed $2 million.
Despite Ram Charan’s efforts to promote the film in the US, including attending an event to boost collections, it failed to make a strong opening due to weak content and declining confidence in Shankar’s recent projects.
While Ram Charan received praise for his performance, the film's failure represents a major setback for his career as a leading star.
11 Days Gross: $2.05M
