2020, which was expected to be a stellar year for the film industry, has quickly turned sour. With multiple incidents affecting audience footsteps, which ultimately ended in a global crash due to the coronavirus pandemic, the film industry is reeling. However, some films were released and managed to captivate the audience, and in this special report, we take a look at the top box office grosses abroad in the first quarter of 2020.
Collecting USD 4.92 million [Rs. 36.83 cr] the protagonist of Ajay Devgn Tanhaji – The Unsung Warrior claims a first-place as grossest abroad in the first quarter of 2020. Below Tanhaji, there are other releases like the protagonist Tiger Shroff Baaghi 3 which raised USD 3.30 million [Rs. 24.70 cr], Chhappak which raised USD 2.10 million [Rs. 15.72 cr] and Street Dancer 3D which had raised USD 2.04 million [Rs. 15.27 cr].
