Prabhas’s “Saaho”, which was screened in the USA in big way, has sent shock waves in the movie industry.
The film’s premiere numbers didn’t even cross $1 million mark.
The film was released in four languages but posted just an ordinary $915k.
Among the Telugu movies, “Saaho” now stands at 6th position among the movies that grossed highest amounts from premiere shows.
While Pawan Kalyan’s “Agnyaathavaasi” collected whopping $1.5 million, “Saaho” that released amidst huge hype didn’t cross $1 million.
One reason is bad planning by the overseas distributor. The other is the USA market for Telugu films is crumbling these days.
1. Baahubali 2 – $2.4M
2. Agnyaathavasi – $1.52M
3. Baahubali – $1.39M
4. Khaidi No 150 – $1.29M
5. Spyder – $1M
6. Saaho – $915k
