Vaishnav Tej made a sensational debut with “Uppena” in February this year.
The film’s massive openings surprised trade pundits. “Uppena” ended as one of the biggest grossers in recent times.
The trade pundits expected a grand opening for his second film, Kondapolam, that hit the theaters yesterday.
Much to the shock of the producers, it opened to poor response. The film has posted low numbers everywhere.
In the USA, it skipped the Thursday premiere. The Friday collection is around $17k. This is too low for a star who scored a massive hit early this year.
Director Krish’s brand value was nosedived after the colossal failure of NTR biopics. So, the USA audience didn’t show much interest.
