While down home tensions are still riding high over the release of ‘Vishwaroopam’, on international shores the much-anticipated Kamal Haasan movie is enjoying good shows.

The Tamil version of ‘Vishwaroopam’ which released in USA is garnering impressive response. Reportedly, the film grossed $180k (Non-reported gross will be another $30k) on just FRI for USA (Canada not included which might be another $50k more). Most of the night shows on Friday were sold out in all major locations irrespective of the bad weather in some locations. On the other hand, the Telugu version is running with decent collections as well.

What’s more interesting is that there were additional shows added in most of the locations over the weekends – that is Jan 26th, Sat and Jan 27th, Sun.

Besides the Ulaganayagan, the film stars Pooja Kumar, Rahul Bose and Andrea Jeremiah.

For the records, the ban on ‘Vishwaroopam’ is applicable only to Tamil Nadu, while the film has already hit the screens, all over USA and Canada.
