The one punch line that has been taken too seriously by the audience in recent times is that 'Paisaa Vasool' one, where Balayya Babu says, "Outers not allowed".

The English-savvy NRI Telugus in the US took it even more seriously than their AP/TS counterparts. So, they ensured that the film doesn't rake in more than USD 180,000 in the first weekend. The result is that it's a disaster over there.

It's instructive that the audience turned out in large numbers to make Balayya's previous film, 'Gautamiputra Satakarni', a monster hit. The historical mopped up a cool USD 1 Million in the very first weekend.

The 'Arjun Reddy' impact is still being felt very hard at the Overseas territory, where the film has already minted USD 1.41 Million.
