US BO: Waltair Veerayya, a True Blockbuster

Chiranjeevi has done it again. His star power and charisma remain unaffected. The megastar's film dominated the box office in the United States.

The 'artificial attempts' to make Balakrishna's film a box office success failed miserably.

"Waltair Veerayya", starring Chiranjeevi, drew large crowds. The film's domestic success can be attributed to the festival season.

However, there is no such thing as a festival season in the United States. Nonetheless, it became a huge blockbuster. In three days, the film grossed $1.7 million (plus premiere shows). 

"Waltair Veerayya" will also pass the $2 million mark in a few days. Monday is also a federal holiday in the United States. It's a genuine blockbuster. Chiranjeevi has made it a success despite the fact that the content is fairly average. 

#WalTairVeerayya: Thu - $682,860 Fri - $308,911 Sat - $392,532 Sun: $350k (apprx) Total Gross: $1.7 million

Balakrishna's "Veera Simha Reddy" stunned everyone with its massive number of premiere shows, thanks to bulk booking by a community.

However, the film failed to gross as much as the Tamil films ``Thunivu" and "Varisu '' did after that. It performed poorly on the other days. Nonetheless, the film passed the $1 million mark, owing largely to the massive number of premiere shows.

#VeeraSimhaReddy: Wed  $708,472 Thu  $71,240 Fri  $68,956 Sat  $85,828 Sun:$60k (apprx) Total Gross: $996k (apprx)

Ajith's "Thunivu," on the other hand, is a first hit for the Tamil film industry in the United States in 2023. The film made $930k. It recouped all of its expenses. As a result, it became a smash hit in the United States. 

Thalapathy Vijay's "Varisu" did well as well. So far, the film has received over $900k collection. However, in order to break even, the film must earn $1.6 million.
