Raviteja starrer 'Raja - The Great' and Vijay-Atlee's 'Mersal' are the two new releases this week. Let's see how these films fared at the USA Box Officeâ¦
'Raja - The Great' Tuesday premiere revenue of $135K isn't bad at all compared to the track record of Raviteja in this territory. Sadly, The film failed to draw decent crowds from Day 2 itself. By Thursday, It just managed 197k and could be yet another disaster for US Buyers. It can't even attain break-even by collecting $30k-40k in the first few days of release.
Whereas, 'Mersal' is just rocking at the USA Box Office. By the end of Thursday, Collections touched $650k mark. It could join the $1 million club by the end of weekend.
Usually, Films of Telugu Heroes perform better than Tamil Heroes in USA market. In this case, Vijay showed his star power despite mixed reviews. And the fact that 'Mersal' was directed by Atlee of 'Raja Rani' fame became a major factor.
