Rishab Shetty’s Kantara Chapter 1 performs exceptionally well at the box office in its first week and lives up to the expectations of trade, but it now enters the crucial 2nd weekend overseas, where the break-even value is set on a high mark.
The spiritual action drama carries huge risk overseas, as the film’s break-even is valued at $15M, including expenses, and it has to collect $16M to put distributors in a safe zone.
Kantara Overseas Box Office: Still a long way to go
But the film has recovered only 50% of valued business until now with around $8M in gross collections. That is why the 2nd weekend became important for Kantara Chapter 1 overseas business.
The film needs a massive jump in the collections to at least go near the 80% recovery for buyers, and even in India the film needs a solid weekend to get the expected collections at the box office.
