Sitara Entertainments' produced by naga Vamsi Before the customary U.S. premieres began, Lucky bhaskar had paid premieres in India. The amount of discussion that followed, combined with the positive reviews from websites, was a dream come true for any film crew. Actually, the last time a movie received this much good internet discussion was in march 2024, but that movie had its own benefits and was also produced by the same company.
After all the really favorable buzz from the telugu state premieres, nobody in the U.S. distribution circle or the telugu state trade people knows about Lucky Bhaskar's poor performance ($685K in 5 days). It may be a class movie, according to some, but it should have done incredibly well in American cities, which is not what happened.
Here, we assembled a few hypotheses that may make sense—continue reading. First, we believe that casting plays a role. dulquer salmaan has undoubtedly gotten more popular among telugu viewers, but he hasn't yet succeeded in drawing crowds to theaters.
After Sita Ramam, which had several additional elements like songs and Mrunal Thakur, Lucky bhaskar is his second telugu production. However, Lucky bhaskar does not have any extra cushioning. Despite being a telugu filmmaker, venky atluri is not a household name that attracts moviegoers to theaters. Although it's not a very popular genre, Lucky Baskhar is similarly set in a financial setting. Some may blame the poor success on several releases conflicting with other films that are receiving good or favorable reviews.
This is also a poor justification because, despite Amaran's massive efforts and over one million dollars in revenue, the telugu version of Amaran only made $37,000, suggesting that few telugu viewers chose to forego Lucky bhaskar in order to watch the telugu version of Amaran. The genre of KA is not so ubiquitous as to imply that all of its collections would have gone to Lucky bhaskar had KA and Lucky bhaskar not clashed.
Only $420K was collected by KA. A portion of American kids would have seen both KA and Lucky Bhaskar. We must also acknowledge that some viewers would have chosen to watch KA instead of Lucky bhaskar, and that some of the thriller enthusiasts who watched KA would not have done so in the first place because KA is a thriller.
Therefore, considering its restricted popularity based on genre and actors, KA's influence is equally minimal. In any event, it is evident that Lucky bhaskar has underperformed when compared to its first weekend collection of $685K. Additionally, Lucky bhaskar had a lot of paid premieres in telangana and Andhra Pradesh, and the discussion began six to eight hours before the U.S. premieres. But there was absolutely no effect of the indian debuts on the U.S. premieres.
