Tollywood actor Nani, known as a Tier 2 star, continues to solidify his strong following among the US audience. His latest release, Saripodhaa Sanivaaram, opened impressively, grossing $1 million at the US box office by Day 2. With this achievement, Nani has set a remarkable record, becoming the second actor to have ten films cross the $1 million mark in the US, placing him just behind Mahesh Babu, who holds twelve such hits.
Nani’s consistent performance at the US box office is unparalleled, with the territory proving to be his strongest. Saripodhaa Sanivaaram marks his tenth $1 million success, further cementing his position as a reliable star for international audiences. Nani’s ability to deliver hits in this market is second only to Mahesh Babu, making him one of the few actors with double-digit million-dollar films in the US.
There’s also speculation that Saripodhaa Sanivaaram could join the $2 million club, especially with the advantage of a long weekend. However, the film’s performance in the Telugu states needs to pick up. With no major box office clashes, the movie has a clear path to success, but it remains to be seen how it will attract audiences in the coming days.
