After four days of release, the film has grossed over Rs. 13 crores in the state, this figure is set to rise to over Rs. 17 crores by the end of business today.

2018 Looks To Topple Pulimurugan As The Highest Grossing Film In Kerala

Right now the film is in the gravity-defying phase and could stay that way for a few more days as the exhibitors are scrambling to add more and more shows to meet the demand. Once the collection stabilises, one could project where it could be heading. The Rs. 50 crores mark is a lock and it wouldn't be surprising if it does so within the second week itself. It’s been seven years since Pulimurugan held the all-time record gross with Rs. 78 crores, seeing what has happened over the last two days, it might be time to have some changes at the top. 

 

The box office collections of 2018 at the Kerala box office are as follows:

Friday - Rs. 1.85 crores
Saturday - Rs. 3.20 crores
Sunday - Rs. 4.10 crores
Monday - Rs. 4 crores
