Humiliation : Pawan Kalyan's UBS Not Touching $1M

Pawan Kalyan arrived back on the big screen with his latest film Ustaad Bhagat Singh, which is turning out to be one of the biggest disaster of all time. The film is not even likely to collect $1 million at the North American box office which is a humiliating result.

Ustad Bhagat Singh, the Pawan Kalyan-starrer, tells a different story altogether, collecting just $1K on the same day for a dismal cumulative of $793K, making it virtually certain the film will close well short of the $1 million mark in North America, a humiliating outcome for a major Telugu release.

Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge continues its record-breaking run in North America, adding $356K on Tuesday to push its cumulative total to $23.13 million, cementing its status as the highest-grossing Indian film ever in the region.

The Ranveer Singh spy thriller, directed by Aditya Dhar, dethroned Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, which had held the record since 2017 with $20.80 million, achieving the feat in just ten days.

Band Melam remains an afterthought at $25K total. Among Tamil releases, the youth film picked up $1.3K for a running total of $125.5K.

The contrast between Dhurandhar 2 and the rest of the field could not be sharper, with the Bollywood blockbuster single-handedly rewriting the record books while the Telugu camp grapples with one of its most underwhelming North American showings in recent memory.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
