A common trend of heavy falls on day 2
This is usually a very common trend for Telugu films as the mentality of the majority of fans is that they watch the films of their favorite stars on the opening day itself. Even special shows are arranged on the first day, along with high ticket rates. So, a huge decline is totally understood on the following day after a bumper start.
Now, the real game has begun, and apart from the Telugu version, the role of other dubbed versions has become important. In the case of successful Tollywood films released on a pan-India level, the Hindi dubbed version and other dubbed versions contributed heavily after a monstrous start from the Telugu version. Let’s see if Salaar finds that support from its dubbed versions.
