Ustaad Ram Pothineni’s films have had a decent run at the US box office. If the film gets positive word of mouth, then Ram can pull in decent numbers in the US.
Ram’s career’s biggest grosser in the US was Nenu Sailaja, which grossed $632 K. His second best was Vunnadhi Okate Zindagi, which made $313 K. Ram’s mass blockbuster iSmart Shankar ($282 K) didn’t collect much despite getting a blockbuster collections from India.
It can be seen that romantic family entertainers are a better bet for Ram in the overseas market than mass films.
Now he is coming up with the action-drama The Warriorr directed by Lingusamy. The film has decent hype due to its popular music. The trade analysts feel that the film might open well at the US box office also due to the fact that there has been a dry spell at the US box office for many weeks.
The Telugu audience in the US is waiting for a good commercial entertainer, and it is expected that The Warriorr might be that film that can satisfy their taste buds.
The trade experts believe that if the film collects somewhere around half a million at the US box office, it would be a pretty good result for an action film like The Warriorr. The film is expected to be at least in the Top 3 grossers of Ram’s career if it gets decent reviews.
