With Bhagavanth Kesari, Balakrishna looks set to score another $1 million film after Akhanda and Veera Simha Reddy. If the opening weekend scores positively, $1 million feat should be a done case.




As for Leo, the film was always bound to start well at the box office domestically and internationally, given the combination hype. The same has happened with a mega $1.8 million premiere tally. The film has gotten off to one of the brightest starts for an Indian film in USA in recent times.
