“Kill,” despite its hype as a fast-paced action movie, has struggled at the Indian box office, opening with a disappointing 1.2 crores. Though praised for its brutal action sequences, even better than those in “Animal,” the film hasn’t resonated with Indian audiences who prefer films with more depth and cultural relevance.
Being Used to A-rated films with blood stains and muted swear words, Indian viewers found “Kill’s” intense scenes too much to stomach in theaters. The filmmakers are now eyeing the US market, planning to release the film through Lionsgate on streaming platforms. They hope that American audiences, known for their love of action movies, will appreciate the Hollywood-style intensity.

Though the successes in the US is not guaranteed, at all. Competing with big-name franchises like Marvel and Fast & Furious means “Kill” needs stellar marketing and emotional resonance. Lionsgate’s expertise will be crucial, using social media campaigns and targeted ads to create excitement.
Despite these efforts, there are significant challenges. American viewers have high standards, and the film might feel too foreign or lack the necessary emotional connection. While “Kill” has the potential to make an impact, its success in the US market remains uncertain, with effective marketing and emotional relevance being key to its fortunes.
