Filmmaker Sekhar Kammula's romantic drama "Fidaa" is the seventh Telugu film to enter the $2 million club in the US, its makers announced on Monday.

In a statement, it was officially confirmed the film earned over $2 million in the US in its fourth week.

The other Telugu films to have minted over $2 million in the US include "Baahubali", "Srimanthudu", "Naanaku Prematho"," A...Aa", "Khaidi No 150" and "Baahubali 2".

In four weeks in cinemas worldwide, "Fidaa" reportedly grossed over Rs 50 crore and has earned the blockbuster tag.

Starring Varun Tej and Sai Pallavi in the lead, the film was a love story set against the backdrop of Telangana.

After the debacles of "Life is Beautiful" and "Anamika", Kammula bounced back strongly with "Fidaa", produced by Dil Raju.
