Shambo Shankara & Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi Underperforms At The US Box Office!
Shambo Shankara and Ee Nagaraniki Emaaindi, the two major Telugu movies of the previous weeks haven;t enjoyed a good run at the US box office. Read on to know more.
2
flicks
got
released
last
week
with
quite
a
bit
of
expectations
as
the
riders
of
the
respective
flicks
had
carried
certain
weightage.
Shakalaka
Shankar’s
Shambo
Shankara
opened
at
the
box-office
to
negative
response
both
from
the
critics
and
the
audience
while
Tharun
Bhaskcar’s
Ee
Nagaraniki
Emaindi
got
a
thumbs
up
from
the
critics
and
a
decent
response
from
the
audience.

Shankara
However,
both
movies
are
not
having
the
best
of
run
at
the
US
box-office
at
their
desired
level.
Shambo
Shankara
has
had
a
shocking
weekend
in
the
states
with
over
just
8
tickets
sold.
This
is
a
huge
shock
to
the
exhibitors
and
distributors
and
has
shown
a
clear
rejection
from
the
audience.
The
movie
grossed
$10
on
its
premiere
day,
$40
on
Day
1
and
$29
on
Day
2
taking
the
total
tally
to
$79.
This
is
a
massive
dismal
performance
and
is
already
a
disaster.
Ee
Nagaraniki
Emaindi
Tharun
Bhaskcar
has
already
marked
quite
a
solid
impression
amongst
the
minds
of
the
US
audience
with
Pelli
Choopulu
and
that
was
an
added
plus
to
the
movie.
Though
the
premieres
opened
up
to
a
decent
level,
Day
1
&
2
have
not
been
all
that
great
considering
the
word
of
mouth
and
the
distribution
cost
involved.
Premieres
had
raked
in
$98,488
from
121
locations,
Day
1
had
grossed
$83,931
from
126
locations
while
Day
2
was
the
highest
amongst
the
three
as
it
scored
$103,062
from
129
locations.
The
movie
has
been
sold
to
2.5Cr
and
the
collection
from
3
days
stand
at
a
mediocre
$285481.
Trade
predict
that
Ee
Nagaraniki
Emaaindi
may
end
up
at
a
figure
of
$400,000
and
that
would
still
fall
short
of
the
break-even
mark
in
order
to
reap
in
profits
to
the
distributors.
One
needs
to
see
if
the
domestic
performances
of
both
movies
are
in
the
same
league
or
better
than
their
US
counterparts.
