Saaho struggling at the US Box Office

Jalapathy Gudelli 02 Sep 2019

Much to everyone’s surprise, Prabhas starrer ‘Saaho’ has not lit any firecrackers at the North American box-office. The film was expected to rake in more than $4 million in the USA from the first weekend but in its three days, the action-adventure grossed just $2.37 million. This figure is pretty low for a movie that is setting box-office on fire at the domestic front.

Total Weekend Gross
$2.37 million

The $2.3 million is the cumulative gross of all the four language versions. Both Telugu and Hindi versions have contributed a major part while the Tamil and Malayalam have posted nominal numbers.
 
‘Saaho’ will mostly end its run with a little above $3 million at the box-office given its current trend. Directed by Sujeeth, the action-adventure thriller hit the screens on August 30 but it was premiered in the USA on August 29. However, the film grossed a huge amount in the gulf region. According to the trade, ‘Saaho’ collected nearly $8 million outside India that includes America gross.
