An
Ordinary
Start!
According
to
the
latest
trade
reports,
veteran
actor
Kamal
Haasan's
spy-thriller
Vishwaroopam
2
opened
to
an
average
response
at
the
US
box
office
and
had
managed
to
collect
close
to
USD
38,604
from
97
locations
by
2PM
PST.
The
final
figures
are
likely
to
be
revealed
soon
and
the
buzz
is
that
they
might
not
be
as
high
as
expected.
Vishwaroopam
2
Fails
To
Beat
Vishwaroopam
Vishwaroopam
had
collected
USD
257,110
at
the
US
box
office
through
premieres.
Similarly,
Uttama
Villain
had
raked
in
nearly
USD
81,000
in
the
US
on
the
opening
day,
Going
by
the
initial
trends,
Vishwaroopam
2
is
unlikely
to
outperform
Vishwaroopam
and
Uttama
Villain.
Did
The
Numerous
Delays
Affect
The
Collections?
Vishwaroopam
2
was
originally
supposed
to
hit
the
screens
shortly
after
the
first
part.
However,
it
got
postponed
a
number
of
times
for
a
variety
of
reasons.
The
buzz
is
that
this
led
to
a
sense
of
uncertainty
around
its
US
release
and
resulted
in
it
opening
on
an
ordinary
note
The
WOM
Is
Mixed
The
general
feeling
is
that
Vishwaroopam
2's
meant
strictly
for
Ulaga
Nayagan
fans
and
does
not
have
live
up
to
the
high
standards
set
by
the
original
film.
As
such,
the
WOM
is
mixed.
The
Way
Ahead...
Vishwaroopam
2
will
have
to
do
exceptionally
good
business
in
the
coming
days
in
order
to
emerge
as
a
blockbuster.
Either
way,
the
next
few
days
are
crucial
for
the
film
and
might
determine
its
box
office
fate
