Last week, the much–anticipated Vijay Deverakonda – Ananya Panday collaboration ‘Liger’ made its release, though it was received with tepid response from audiences. To everyone’s disappointment, even in the Telugu territories where it had great expectations for huge profits, the movie has failed to show promise at the domestic box office. Surprisingly, despite all this it has performed reasonably well in overseas markets.
On its opening weekend in the U.S.A alone, Liger had raked in USD 7,02,046 [Rs. 5.62 cr.] at the box office, setting the stage for a fruitful international run. It enjoyed a phenomenal response in markets such as Australia (A$ 1,94,507 [Rs. 1.07 cr.]), United Kingdom and Ireland (£ 97,503 [Rs. 90.95 lakhs]), Canada (USD 43,349 [Rs. 34.67 lakhs]), Singapore (S$5,955 [Rs. 3.41 lakhs]) and Malaysia (MYR 11,892 [Rs. 2.13 lakhs]). It even performed decently in countries like Germany and New Zealand where it made € 1,588 [Rs 1 .27 lakhs] and NZ$ 994 [Rs 48562], respectively .
The business of Liger is booming in overseas theatres, far surpassing its performance in its homeland. Its growth potential is still on the rise.
