USA Box Office - Shock and More Shock!
Across India, a number of movies were launched on august 15. Among the telugu industry's debuts were Mr. Bachchan, Double iSmart, and Aye. Because sukumar was unable to release pushpa 2 as planned, these movies were released.
Director Harish Shankar's Mr. Bachchan, starring ravi Teja, failed to create much of a buzz before to its debut in the United States. The news of the indian premieres had a detrimental effect on the U.S. receipts; Mr. Bachchan made a pitiful $72K in two days (counting Day 1 and the premieres), barely breaking the $100K threshold. Double iSmart, directed by puri jagannadh, did not fare as well as Harish Shankar's picture, earning only $106K in two days of business.
The genuine surprise was the $386K debut and Day 1 box office receipts of the bollywood flick stree 2. With a long run ahead of it, it is anticipated to continue doing strongly in the upcoming days. According to the most recent box office data, Bachchan and Ismart both fell apart at the ticket booths on their second day of business. There is almost no chance of recovery because the numbers are so low. Here, poor word-of-mouth is killing everything, and not even the lucrative extended weekend advantage is saving them.
