Talking about Darbar's box office, Rajinikanth and Nayanthara starrer Darbar is all set to face heavy competition from upcoming two Telugu movies, Mahesh Babu's Sarileru Neekevvaru and Allu Arjun's Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo, that are releasing on January 11 and 12 respectively. However, Darbar has already set high a record in the USA by crossing USD 400K at premiere shows.
