Mahanati 11-day box office collection: Keerthy Suresh's film crosses $2 million mark in US

Keerthy Suresh's Mahanati continues to keep the registers ringing at the ticket counters across the US in its second week and its collection has now crossed the $2 million mark at the US box office in 11 days.

Having opened to fantastic response, Mahanati went on to collect $1,954,946 at the US box office in its nine-day-extended first week. Idlebrain Jeevi tweeted on May 18, "#Mahanati collects $36,671 on 2nd Thursday from 127 USA locations. Total US gross is $1,954,946. It will cross $2M today (Friday). Fabulous! "

Mahanati had a huge demand in the US, but the distributors failed to get enough number of screens to cater to the massive demand. Since there was no big-ticket release in its second week, the distributors have now managed to add more number of screens across the US.

The Naga Ashwini-directed movie needed to collect $45,000+ to crore to cross the $2 million mark in the country. Mahanati collected $$59,672 at the US box office on its second Friday, taking its 10-day total to $2,014,618.

As per early trends, the Keerthy Suresh starrer has shown decent growth with its collection almost doubling on its second Saturday. Mahanati has collected $94,472 at the US box office on its 11th day, taking its total to $2.14 million. It has become the eighth highest grossing Telugu movie in the US, beating Fidaa.

Idlebrain Jeevi tweeted, "#Mahanati 2nd Saturday USA hourly gross at 6 pm PST is $94,472 from 108 locations. Total USA gross so far is approximately $2.14 Million. Now #Mahanati is the 8th highest Telugu USA grosser as it slides ahead of #Fidaa @KeerthyOfficial @Samanthaprabhu2 @TheDeverakonda."
