Telugu audiences, who have enjoyed Tamil hero Vishal’s performances in dubbed films in the past, have not been impressed with the actor’s works in recent times.
Most of his latest films like Enemy, Laati and Mark Antony failed to click at the Telugu box office. And here’s what the analysts are saying about the actor’s latest film and the subsequent future.
Early reports suggest that Vishal’s latest movie “Ratnam” is likely to underperform at the box office, raising questions about Vishal’s standing in the Telugu market.
While it’s too early to declare a complete collapse of Vishal’s Telugu market, “Ratnam’s” underwhelming performance certainly throws cold water on any hopes of it being a major success.
Trade analysts are terming the film a “damp squib,” indicating it failed to generate excitement or positive buzz.
This could be a one-off instance, or it might signal a shift in Telugu audience preferences. Gone are the days when Vishal’s simple action films used to rake up big bucks at the Telugu box office.
Only time and Vishal’s future projects will tell if he can regain his footing in the Telugu market. But for now, it looks like Vishal destroyed his market big time in Andhra and Telangana.
