War 2 Slow Bookings In USA: Is This The Reason?

It is a famous predicament in the film industry for a star hero film to open on a blockbuster note at the United States box office. This is the reason why we see several Telugu films opening on a very strong note in the United States.

That is not the case with the upcoming film, which is evidently crossover project for junior NTR, War 2. This film is still trending in the vicinity of 200 K dollars in the United States, which is not a pretty big deal.

In comparison, we had Devara, which reportedly had collected nearly 3.5 million just from the premier and Day 1. In terms of direct comparison, it can be argued that this Hindi film with Hrithik Roshan is not even remotely close to the regional film Devara.

It is reported that there are several reasons contributing to this phenomena. The primary reason here is the pricing implementation that is in effect for this film as the Hindi version is comparatively much cheaper than the Telugu version.

While the exact same film in Hindi is being sold for $18 per ticket, the Telugu version of the very same film is being sold for $30. The kind of price differential between the Hindi and Telugu version is creating a huge barrier, and a few people are even commenting that it is a top degree of exploitation of the Telugu audience.

This has become a topic of discussion already, and people are commenting that why should Telugu people pay substantial more money for the exact same film that’s so cheap in Hindi.
