The massive popularity of the Tamil version of the first film established a solid fanbase for the franchise. The success in Tamil Nadu directly influenced the release strategy for the subsequent and highly successful 2002 sequel, Asterix & Obelix: Mission Cleopatra . When that film was released in India, the number of Tamil prints outnumbered both the English and Hindi prints, a clear testament to the massive popularity of the first film. Reports indicate that 30 Tamil prints were released compared to just 12 in English and 10 in Hindi. This was a clear indication that the filmmakers and distributors recognized Tamil Nadu as one of the most important markets for the franchise, all thanks to the success of the 1999 Tamil-dubbed film.
