Mohanlal’s Stellar Achievement in Malayalam Cinema

Mohanlal has once again demonstrated why he is regarded as the superstar of Malayalam cinema. His latest film, Thudarum, has taken the box office by storm, now standing as the eighth biggest hit in the history of Malayalam cinema. With a remarkable total collection of Rs 75.65 crore in just 11 days, according to Sacnilk, the film has outperformed the lifetime earnings of this year’s blockbuster Premalu, which concluded its theatrical run at Rs 76.35 crore.

Box Office Performance Overview

Directed by Tharun Moorthy, Thudarum debuted with a strong opening of Rs 5.25 crore on its first Friday. The film experienced a remarkable 63.81% increase on Saturday, earning Rs 8.6 crore, and continued its upward trajectory on Sunday with Rs 10.5 crore. By the end of its first week, Thudarum had amassed an impressive Rs 51.4 crore, placing it among the top-grossing opening weeks in Malayalam film history.

What sets Thudarum apart is its impressive consistency. Over the span of 11 days, the film has averaged around Rs 5 crore in daily collections—a rare achievement for a regional film. Even during weekdays, when box office collections typically decline, Thudarum maintained its momentum, with Day 4 (Monday) bringing in Rs 7.15 crore and Day 5 (Tuesday) Rs 6.5 crore. The film saw a resurgence towards the end of its first week, with Day 7 collections reaching Rs 7 crore.

In its second weekend, Thudarum continued its strong performance, earning Rs 5.4 crore on Friday, Rs 6.2 crore on Saturday, and Rs 7.5 crore on Sunday. Early estimates for its 11th day (second Monday) indicate earnings of Rs 5.15 crore, bringing its total to Rs 75.65 crore.

Significance and Future Prospects

With this achievement, Thudarum has officially surpassed Premalu‘s collection of Rs 76.35 crore, securing its position as the eighth highest-grossing Malayalam film of all time. Premalu featured notable actors such as Fahadh Faasil, Naslen, Mamitha Baiju, and Sangeeth Prathap.

The film’s captivating storyline, Mohanlal’s outstanding performance, and strong word-of-mouth have all contributed to its success. If this momentum continues, Thudarum could very well climb higher in the all-time rankings in the coming days. Notably, the film has also garnered over Rs 11.50 crore in North America during its 11-day run.
