Maharaja beats Baahubali 2 in China. Generally, North India films work at the China box office, but the South Indian films failed to work big including the landmark film like Baahubali 2. The Prabhas and Rajamouli’s film had good openings in China but failed to continue the momentum and ended up with 80 Cr INR gross. Now, Vijay Sethupathi’s Maharaja beats Baahubali 2 in China.

Maharaja worked well at China and it is continuing the good run at at the box office. After 17 days of theatrical run, Maharaja collected 81 Cr gross in China and surpassed Baahubali 2, which is a sensational feat. Within next one week or 10 days the film will likely go past the 100 Cr mark. Maharaja stands as the highest South Indian cinema grosser in China now.

Maharaja’s success is a big boon for Vijay Sethupathi’s career as a solo hero. In the last few years, he appeared in villain roles in other hero films and then stated that he would not be playing any villain roles from now on. As a solo hero, he has gone through a lot of disappointments in recent years until Maharaja emerged as his career’s biggest hit.

Vijay Sethupathi rejects Ram Charan’s Film. It is widely known that actor Vijay Sethupathi is a well-known name in South Indian Cinema. He did not limit himself to just the hero characters and he also did supporting and villain characters in many films. At first, he appeared in powerful characters in other hero films, but after a point, his characters looked regular and routine.

For example, in Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan, Vijay Sethupathi’s character was a regular commercial one. Even the actor expressed that he is not getting such interesting characters. The Viduthalai actor recently delivered a blockbuster as a solo hero with Maharaja.

From now he is selecting only strong characters that too as a lead hero only. It was reported that VJS will be seen in an important character in RC16, directed by Buchi Babu. Though the actor worked with the director in Uppena, he did not accept the offer and in Viduthalai 2 promotions, he said that he was not a part of Ramcharan’s film. He said that sometimes the story will be good but the character will not be enough for him. As Vijay Sethupathi rejects Ram Charan’s Film, there is no chance of him acting in other hero films soon at least.

Game Changer is reportedly going to be continuously engaging and will carry vintage Shankar’s mark commercial message. Even the runtime looks decent with 160-165 minutes. This is perfect for a commercial film.

Coming to the movie, the flashback portions with older Ram Charan along with emotional scenes have come out well. This segment is also packed with fights and mass confrontation scenes which will engage the viewers. Game Changer is likely to be a Shivaji kind of commercial film from Shankar. If this report is true, then we can see another rampage at box-office from Tollywood.

In North America, Baahubali 2 collected $20.8M, Kalki collected $18.5M, whereas Pushpa 2 gathered $12.8M in 11 days. The Telugu versions of films like Baahubali2, RRR, and Kalki did more than 10 Million dollars in North America. Kalki 2898 AD collected $12.8M which is the highest collection for any Telugu film, whereas Pushpa 2 is at around $7.2M, and there is a huge difference.
