Who Is Right Pan-India Star Right Now?

Who is the perfect Pan-India star in India right now? The term pan-India star indicates that this actor’s films have to release across India and should collect well from all the box offices. And if money comes for a film irrespective of the content and the criticisms around it, surely he will be a Pan-India Superstar. Here’s an interesting comment on the same.

Around 2016, when Prabhas’ Baahubali ran well at the box office in Telugu, and moderately at other South tinsel towns. However, with the film running supremely well in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh and other Northern states, Prabhas was hailed as the true pan-India star. Despite the talk around his next array of films, including Saaho, Adipurush and The Rajasaab, Prabhas is always considered to get good openings in the North always.

When everyone thought that none could replace Prabhas, Allu Arjun gave entry with Pushpa first and then proved with Pushpa 2 later. Even Kannada hero Yash did the same, as he proved with KGF and then KGF 2 his north box office penetration to the next level. Another star from Sandalwood, Rishab Shetty, also joined this gang of pan-India stars with Kantara and Kantara prequel.

As a lot of South heroes are doing well in South and North as well, Bollywood took it seriously and delivered Dhurandhar as their standalone answer. The film’s two parts did amazingly well in Telugu states also. Tomorrow, upcoming films of other Bollywood stars might also click here, and that particular star might also emerge as a Pan-India star.

But then, there’s nothing like a Pan-India star right now, because every Friday this ‘position’ changes. Those who could get their film released comfortably across India and prove their mettle at the box office across the nation will be a true pan-India star; that’s it.
