Telugu Movies' Failure At USA Box Office; Will Mahesh Babu And Allu Arjun Movies Change The Fortune?

Telugu
movies
do
enjoy
a
strong
market
at
the
USA
box
office.
We
all
remember
the
humungous
success
that
the
Baahubali
series
of
films
had
enjoyed
out
there.
However,
of
late,
the
scenario
isn't
the
same,
as
many
of
the
recent
big
Telugu
movies
have
failed
to
break-even
at
the
USA
box
office.
The
recent
biggies
like
Maharshi,
Saaho,
Sye
Raa
Narasimha
Reddy,
etc.,
managed
to
fetch
good
collections
but
the
stakes
surrounding
these
films
were
too
big.
However,
if
reports
that
are
doing
the
rounds
are
anything
to
go
by,
Mahesh
Babu
and
Allu
Arjun's
upcoming
movies
might
take
a
new
step.
According
to
a
few
reports,
the
makers
of
Sarileru
Neekevvaru
and
Ala
Vaikuntapuramlo,
might
tread
a
new
path
by
allowing
the
digital
premiere
of
these
films
to
happen
after
their
television
debut.
This
might
help
in
more
audiences
flocking
to
theatres
since
the
wait
for
the
digital
debut
will
be
longer.
Of
late,
we
saw
many
Telugu
movies
making
their
debut
on
digital
platforms
within
50
days
of
release.
The
talk
among
movie
buffs
is
that
the
Telugu
audiences
in
the
USA
might
prefer
to
watch
films
with
excellent
reviews
alone
from
theatres,
especially
since
the
digital
premieres
of
most
movies
happen
within
50
days.
Moreover,
the
ticket
prices
for
big-budget
movies
at
the
USA
theatres,
is
also
on
the
higher
side,
in
the
initial
days.
All
these
reasons
might
pull
back
movie
buffs
from
watching
the
films
in
theatres
and
instead
wait
for
the
digital
premiere
to
happen.
If
the
digital
premiere
gets
extended,
it
is
being
believed
by
movie
buffs
that
it
might
help
films
with
good
reports
to
have
a
longer
run
in
overseas
centres.
However,
2019
has
not
been
completely
dull
for
Telugu
movies
at
the
USA
box
office.
Early
this
year,
we
saw
Venkatesh
and
Varun
Tej
starrer
F2,
raking
huge
collections
at
the
USA
box
office
and
the
movie
had
won
excellent
reviews.
It
is
also
one
among
the
most
profitable
Telugu
movies
of
recent
times
at
the
USA
box
office.
Nevertheless,
the
other
biggies
that
released
along
with
it,
failed
to
make
a
mark.
Let
us
wait
and
see
whether
the
upcoming
big-budget
movies
could
completely
change
the
fortunes
or
not.
