There are several ways to know the talk of the movie. Mouth talk is said to be the most powerful talk of all the talks. However, with the emergence of web media, 'Rating' system to know the talk of the movie has come into force.
Meanwhile Telugu people, who got settled in the US (NRIs), have a complete faith on the ratings given by the web media for movies and it has become a common practice for them watching movies based on the ratings given by online web media houses.
As far as AP and Telangana are concerned, people of all sections who belong to all castes and religions are seen. In contrast, very few sections of people who belong to very few 'groups' are seen noticed in the US. This factor also is affecting the opening collections of the Telugu movies in the US. There have been many instances movies recording super hit collections in in the US in spite of it being bombed in India. Reportedly, it is known that the audience of US are gradually learning their setbacks in picking out a right movie to watch it. A welcome change from the US audience!
