The Telugu films, especially those that are upcoming and in production, will be facing a new problem as US President Trump announced a 100% tariff on any and all movies made outside the United States.
The U.S. is a significant market for Telugu cinema, and this new rule of 100% tariff by Trump will deliver a big blow to the industry, especially for films that are already in production and shooting.
Already the ticket hikes in Telangana are in doubt for the near future films, and now this US Tariff is another shock for the Telugu filmmakers.
Indians account for about 1.6% of the U.S. population, and other South Asians like Pakistanis and Bangladeshis also enjoy Indian language films, along with locals who appreciate a diverse range of movies.
