But the million dollar question is which movie has a chance of outperforming KGF 2 in foreign markets.
At the moment two films – Aamir Khan starrer Laal Singh Chaddha and Ranbir Alia starrer Karan Johar’s Brahmastra look like best bets.
Aamir Khan has a huge following in the overseas market which can second only to Shah Rukh Khan and Laal Singh Chaddha has elements that can appeal to an overseas audience. Similarly, Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt starrer Brahmastra have a huge star cast and larger-than-life appeal which has been working lately in post-pandemic times at the box office.
The leading stars in both movies are making comebacks after long absences, so anticipation is a role.
10 million $ mark is tough to achieve in today’s time but these two films have the star power, hype and legs to surpass this feat.
Talking about Laal Singh Chaddha, it is directed by Advait Chandan and produced by Aamir Khan Productions and Viacom 18 Studios, will release worldwide on August 11. Kareena Kapoor plays the female lead in the film while Naga Chaitanya plays a very special role in the official remake of the Hollywood blockbuster, ‘Forrest Gump’.
On the other hand, ‘Brahmastra’ will hit the theatres on September 9. ‘Brahmastra – Part One: Shiva’ is one of Bollywood’s most ambitious projects. Apart from Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, the film has a stellar cast of Alia Bhatt, Amitabh Bachchan, Mouni Roy, and Nagarjuna Akkineni.
