Indian films likely to bear brunt of US action

- VIVEAT SUSAN PINTO

US PRESIDENT DONALD Trump said on Monday that he will introduce a 100% tariff on all films made outside the country, a move that could not only disrupt Hollywood's overseas business but also have implications for Indian cinema.

The US is a crucial market for Indian movies, accounting for 30-40% of overseas collections for big-budget films. Typically, Indian blockbusters are widely released across markets, tapping into the Indian diaspora who are big fans of Indian stars and eagerly await their releases.
