Telugu films are slowly losing potential in the USA

Until a couple of years back, the USA market is often considered as the big money generating arena for Telugu films. Many star hero films used to collect more than one million dollars ending up the distributors in a high-profit zone. But since last year, things have changed drastically and most of the films are failing to create an impact at the US box office.

This year, our films’ performance is worse compared to the last year. According to the reports, all the Telugu films have earned a combined total of $20.1 million in 2019, which is almost 35 per cent lesser than the last year’s figure of $30.94 million. Big-ticket films like Saaho and Sye Raa Narasimha ended up as heavy loss ventures.

The shocking truth is only eight films managed to break-even to the distributor and there is not even a single star-studded big-budget film in that list. No film was able to cross the $2.5 million mark and only three films crossed the $2 million mark.

While F2 is the biggest hit in overseas, Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy is the biggest grosser. Samantha’s Oh Baby has also done a business of more than $2 million at the US box office. We have to how our Telugu films perform overseas in 2020.
