Mahesh Babu inspired by Baahubali series decided to go multi-lingual route and confirmed a long pending combination with director AR Murugadoss.
The movie couldn't satisfy Telugu star hero's image and due to huge budget it ended up a big disaster.
But Tamil people liked Mahesh Babu. He did not attain a market like Suriya or Vikram in Telugu, but he got a good number of people who like to watch his movies.
The actor's new movie, Bharat Ane Nenu got cleared in the last minute for a release in Tamil Nadu and it collected huge 78 Lakhs gross on the first day.
It got a wide release like a star Tamil hero film does and public reacted positively to the film. By the end of the weekend, the movie stood at the top position even overpowering Tamil movies with Rs. 2.35 Cr gross in three days.
So, even though an experiment like Spyder with Murugadoss failed, it helped Mahesh to find a good market in Tamil Nadu. In future, if he does a film that works in Tamil too or if he works with SS Rajamouli, who has universal acceptance, his market might improve ten folds there.
