Late entry costs $2 million club for Balayya ?

Nandamuri Balakrishna's Gautami Putra Satakari did so well in the Overseas and the movie went on to collect one million dollars in the first weekend itself. Considering the past record of Balayya films, this is an extra ordinary acheivement. Going by the euphoria surrounding the film, many expected that the movie would enter 2 million dolllars club if they step up promotions.

Overseas distributors might have thought the same way so they made Balayya to visit Overseas for the promotions. Balayya gave his late entry into the Overseas for the promotions. It seems Balayya late entry did not work so well in boosting the collections of the film, as the collections had started dropping already. Going by the current trend it is impossible for Satakarni to enter $2 million club. Trade analysts opine tha Balayya should have visited the Overseas at the time of premiers so that his promotions would have had a major impact in boosting the collections of Satakarni.

On the contrary Chiranjeevi's Khaidi No.150 got benefited from Charan's Overseas tour at the time of premiers. It is known that Charan campaigned vigorously at the time of premiers of Khaidi.Obviously the results were evident in the form of collections. Coming back to the topic of Satakarni, some trade analysts opine that Balayya's late entry costed him $2 million dollars club.
