Achari
America
Yatra
Post
Gayatri's
failure,
Manchu
Vishnu
had
been
in
quest
of
a
commercial
break.
It
was
at
this
point
when
the
young
actor
felt
that
a
movie
in
comedy
genre
would
be
a
safe
gamble
and
a
combination
with
veteran
actor,
Brahmanandam,
would
assure
a
decent
success.
This
thought
prompted
him
to
make
Achari
America
Yatra
movie.
Though
termed
as
a
comedy
flick,
the
movie
is
said
to
be
made
in
a
poor
taste
with
not
even
a
single
scene
invoking
genuine
laughter
amongst
audience.
The
movie
has
to
face
the
wrath
of
Avengers
Infinity
War
as
well,
which
is
a
double
blow.
Being
made
at
a
budget
of
7C
Achari
America
Yatra
has
managed
to
earn
just
50
Lakhs
on
its
opening
day
which
is
way
too
less
for
the
costs
involved.
