Drishyam 3 Box Office: Mohanlal Starrer Struggling To Reach 250 Crore Worldwide

BY SACNILK

Kochi, June 4 - Superstar Mohanlal's much-awaited crime thriller Drishyam 3 continues to perform well at the box office, but its pace has slowed considerably during the second week of its theatrical run. Despite emerging as one of the biggest Malayalam hits of 2026, the film is now facing a challenge in reaching the significant 250 crore worldwide gross milestone. Directed by Jeethu Joseph, the third instalment of the iconic Drishyam franchise opened to a sensational response worldwide. The film crossed the 100 crore mark globally within just three days and entered the prestigious 200 crore club in 9 days, reaffirming the massive popularity of Georgekutty's story among audiences. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) However, the momentum has slowed noticeably in recent days. At the end of the 14th day, Drishyam 3 has grossed approximately 229 crore worldwide, with daily collections witnessing a steady decline during its second week. The film's India gross collections are around 118 crores, while overseas markets have contributed approx 111 crores so far. The slowdown comes after an exceptional opening phase that saw the film become one of the fastest Malayalam releases to cross major box office milestones. While the franchise's loyal fanbase ensured a blockbuster start, sustaining the same momentum has proven difficult as weekday collections continue to soften due to mixed word of mouth. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Drishyam 3 India Gross Collection 1st week - 95.10 crore (8 days) 2nd Friday - 5.00 crore 2nd Saturday - 5.90 crore 2nd Sunday - 6.20 crore 2nd Monday - 2.55 crore 2nd Tuesday - 1.80 crore 2nd Wednesday - 1.45 crore 2nd Thursday - 1.25 crore (expected) Total (15 days) - 119.25 crore (expected) With around 20 crore more needed to hit the 250 crore worldwide benchmark, the coming days will be crucial. The film still has realistic chances of reaching the milestone, but it looks unlikely to beat Mohanlal's Empuraan (266+ crore) as the second biggest Malayalam grosser. At one point, it was expected to enter the prestigious 300 crore club, but now, that mark is looking like a far cry. Nevertheless, Drishyam 3 remains a major commercial success for Malayalam cinema and another significant achievement for Mohanlal. While it may or may not cross Empuraan, the crime suspense thriller will be beating Vaazha 2 (235.25 crores) to become the highest-grossing Malayalam film of the year (so far).

Blast Day 7 Box Office: 3.16 Crore Gross; Kerala Emerges as a Major Stronghold with 6.36 Crore Total

BY SACNILK

Blast is currently finishing its first week on a positive note, maintaining a steady trajectory even during the mid-week period. On its 7th day, the film collected 3.16 crore gross across the Indian market. This represents a logical drop from the previous day, which is a standard trend as the initial opening weekend rush settles into a more stable daily pattern. The film has managed to sustain 2,544 shows across the country. Directed by Subash K. Raj and produced under the AGS Entertainment banner, Blast is a Tamil-language action-family thriller that seems to have struck a chord with its target audience. The story features Arjun Sarja in the role of a disciplined karate master, and early feedback from viewers has highlighted the standout performances by Preity Mukhundhan and Abhirami. The mix of family emotions and action elements has helped the film stay relevant in both urban and rural centers during its first seven days. Tamil Nadu continues to be the primary driver for the film, contributing 1.55 crore gross on Wednesday. Interestingly, Kerala has also emerged as a very strong territory, adding another 1.15 crore gross on Day 7. With these latest numbers, the total India net collection now stands at 23.75 crore, while the total India gross has reached 27.29 crore. For a film produced on a moderate budget, reaching these figures within the first week is a healthy sign for its long-term recovery. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The performance in the Kerala market has been one of the biggest highlights of the film's first week. On Wednesday, Blast grossed 1.15 crore in the state, pushing its total Kerala gross to a solid 6.36 crore in just seven days. To give some context to these numbers, the film is trending exceptionally well compared to major franchises in the region. For example, Drishyam 3 had recorded a gross of 1.20 crore in Kerala on its 14th day. For Blast to maintain nearly that same volume of collection on its 7th day shows that it has successfully tapped into the local audience's preference for thrillers, outperforming typical expectations for a mid-budget Tamil production in the state. Looking at the state-wise breakdown for Day 7, Tamil Nadu predictably leads the way with a gross of 1.55 crore. A significant highlight, however, is the performance in Kerala, where the film earned a strong 1.15 crore gross on Wednesday. The Telugu-speaking regions contributed 0.30 crore, while Karnataka added 0.15 crore to the daily total. These numbers, along with a small contribution of about 1 lakh from the rest of the country, bring the single-day domestic gross to 3.16 crore. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) On the global stage, early trends suggest the international market is providing a solid boost. On Wednesday, the film added approximately 0.50 crore from overseas regions, taking the total overseas gross to an estimated 7.30 crore. This is a noteworthy achievement for a mid-budget production that does not feature one of the top-tier superstars, proving that the content and Arjun Sarja's screen presence have found an audience beyond domestic borders. Combining the domestic gross with these early trends, the worldwide gross collection for Blast is now nearing 34.59 crore. On the digital booking front, the film remains a popular choice for moviegoers. In the last 24 hours alone, nearly 58,400 tickets were sold on BookMyShow, bringing the total ticket count on the platform to over 6.15 lakh since release. Occupancy in major cities like Chennai remains healthy at around 34 percent, while regions like Coimbatore and Vizag are seeing stable footfalls, particularly during the evening and night shows where demand is highest. National multiplex chains have also played a key role in supporting the first-week totals. On Day 7, these major chains accounted for a gross of approximately 86 lakhs, with nearly 59,000 tickets sold. The overall occupancy in these premium screens stood at roughly 10 percent for the day. As the film moves into its second weekend, the goal will be to see how much it can capitalize on the current momentum to further boost its 34.59 crore global tally before new competition arrives.

Mollywood Times: Censored U/A With 167 Minute Runtime; Advance Bookings Now Open For This Coming-Of-Age Comedy-Drama

BY SACNILK

Mollywood Times has officially cleared the censorship process with a U/A certificate and a runtime of 167 minutes, which is roughly 2 hours and 47 minutes. The film also features Vineeth Sreenivasan and Basil Joseph as part of the cast, adding to the ensemble for this upcoming release. This film marks the highly anticipated second directorial outing of Abhinav Sunder Nayak, who previously surprised everyone with the dark-comedy hit Mukundan Unni Associates. This time, he is bringing a satirical coming-of-age story that stars Naslen in the lead role. He is joined by a talented group of actors including Sharafudheen, Sangeeth Prathap, and Roshan Shanavas, making it a very strong ensemble for a comedy-drama. What makes Mollywood Times stand out is its unique branding as a hate letter to cinema. Instead of the usual romanticized look at filmmaking, the story follows Vineeth Madhavan (played by Naslen), a young man from Kuttikkanam who is determined to become the best horror filmmaker Malayalam cinema has ever seen. He views the industry with a bit of cynicism and feels it is his mission to save it from repetitive cliches. The plot focuses on his chaotic and humorous struggle to get his unconventional horror vision onto the big screen. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The film's marketing has also been quite a talking point, especially the first-look poster that mimics a retro 90s CD cover. It carries a bold tagline: Not for those who believe in the myth of a beautiful life, which perfectly sets the tone for the satirical nature of the movie. This unconventional approach seems to be working well with the target audience, as the film is already trending on BookMyShow. According to the latest interest metrics, the movie has already crossed over 64,000 Interested clicks on BookMyShow, reflecting a high level of anticipation. Advance bookings for the film are now officially open across various regions. Produced by Ashiq Usman, Mollywood Times is scheduled for a global theatrical release this Friday, June 5, 2026. It will be interesting to see how this satirical take on the film world resonates with the viewers this weekend.

Kochi, May 30 - Malayalam cinema continues its dream run at the box office as megastar Mohanlal's Drishyam 3 has achieved yet another major milestone. The crime thriller has crossed the 100 crore mark in India gross collections and has simultaneously entered the prestigious 200 crore worldwide club within just nine days of release, emerging as one of the biggest successes of 2026. Directed by Jeethu Joseph, the third instalment of the iconic Drishyam franchise opened to massive anticipation and quickly translated that excitement into impressive box office numbers. Despite the mixed audience reception, the film has collected approximately 100+ crore gross in India, becoming the 8th Malayalam film to do so, while overseas markets have contributed around 108 crore, taking its total worldwide gross to an outstanding 208 crore in nine days.

Kattalan Day 1 Box Office Collection: Antony Varghese Starrer Grosses Rs. 4.35 Crore; Records a Good Opening in Kerala

BY SACNILK

Antony Varghese, popularly known as Pepe, has returned to the big screen with his latest action-packed thriller, Kattalan. Directed and written by Paul George, the film has generated a lot of curiosity due to its rugged forest setting and its unexpected ties to the wider Marco universe. Set in the village of Aanakolli, the story follows Maari, played by Antony, who initially appears to protect the villagers from rogue elephants but eventually becomes an even greater threat. With a powerful background score by KGF Fame Ravi Basrur, the movie had a mid-week release on Thursday and has posted a decent set of numbers on its opening day. Looking at the numbers, Kattalan has delivered a massive career-best opening for Antony Varghese. With an India gross of 4.35 crore, it has easily overtaken his previous top openers like RDX, which earned 1.38 crore on its first day, and the 2021 hit Ajagajantharam, which opened around the 1-crore mark. This jump in opening-day figures is a clear indicator of Pepe's rising bankability as a solo lead. On its first day, Kattalan collected a net of 3.80 crore at the Indian box office, which was achieved across 3,358 shows nationwide. When we look at the gross collections, the film earned 4.35 crore in India. Since the overseas numbers are yet to trickle in, the worldwide gross currently stands at 4.35 crore. For a film primarily rooted in the Malayalam market, these are healthy starting figures, especially considering it released on a working Thursday. It is also important to note that the film is currently navigating a significant screen crunch, as Drishyam 3 is simultaneously running in theaters and dominating a major portion of the available screens. The performance was heavily driven by the home state, Kerala, where the movie saw strong footfalls. In Kerala alone, the film grossed 3.50 crore, while other regions like Karnataka and the Telugu states provided additional support. Here is the state-wise gross breakdown for the opening day: (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Kerala: ₹3.50 Cr APTG (Andhra Pradesh & Telangana): ₹0.30 Cr Karnataka: ₹0.18 Cr Tamil Nadu: ₹0.09 Cr Rest of India: ₹0.30 Cr Analysing the language-wise performance, the Malayalam version contributed the lion's share of the revenue, netting 3.25 crore with an impressive 48% occupancy. The film also saw a multilingual release, with the Hindi version bringing in 0.28 crore and the Telugu version adding 0.20 crore. The Tamil and Kannada versions had a quieter start, contributing 0.05 crore and 0.02 crore, respectively. In terms of major regions, Kochi stood out with an exceptional 77.8% occupancy, while Trivandrum also performed well at 42.3%.

On BookMyShow, Kattalan sold 61.86K tickets in the last 24 hours alone, bringing its total sales on the platform to 126.73K tickets so far. Looking at the national chains, the film sold over 1,100 tickets in advance across PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis. The majority of these sales came from PVR, which accounted for more than 800 tickets. Overall, Kattalan has had a solid start, particularly in the Kerala market. The dark themes and high-octane action sequences seem to be resonating with the core audience. While the Hindi and Telugu versions had a slow start in terms of occupancy, the upcoming weekend will be crucial for the film to gain traction in these markets. With a unique plot and a strong lead performance by Antony Varghese, the movie is expected to see a significant jump in collections over Friday and Saturday.

The Paradise Box Office War: Nani Set for a Historic Showdown Against Suriya, Dulquer, and Prithviraj This August

BY SACNILK

The upcoming August 2026 box office window is shaping up to be one of the most crowded and high-stakes periods for South Indian cinema in recent memory. Within a span of just eight days, four major superstars are bringing their highly anticipated projects to the big screen. This lineup creates a massive logistical challenge for theater owners and a feast for moviegoers, but it also raises important questions about whether such a close release schedule is a benefit or a risk for the industry. The wave begins on August 14 with Suriya's Vishwanath and Sons. Directed by Venky Atluri, this film stands out from the rest as it is a nuanced family drama and sports-romance rather than a typical mass-genre entertainer. Suriya plays an international pistol-shooting champion in a bilingual project shot in both Tamil and Telugu. While it gets a head start by releasing almost a week earlier, it will need to maintain strong word-of-mouth to survive the onslaught of three massive action films arriving just days later. The real explosion happens on August 20, when two of Malayalam cinema's biggest stars, Dulquer Salmaan and Prithviraj Sukumaran, go head-to-head. Dulquer's I'm Game, directed by Nahas Hidayath, is a pan-Indian action-thriller exploring themes of cricket betting and fantasy gaming. On the same day, Prithviraj's Khalifa hits theaters. Subtitled The Bloodline, this underworld saga features an extended cameo by Mohanlal, which has already sent expectations soaring. These two films will compete directly for screen space in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and international markets like the Middle East. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The pressure intensifies just 24 hours later on August 21, with the release of Nani's period action-drama, The Paradise. Directed by Srikanth Odela and featuring music by Anirudh Ravichander, this film is set in the 1980s slums of Secunderabad. While Nani is expected to dominate the Telugu states, the overlap with the other releases is undeniable. In an interesting twist, actress Kayadu Lohar finds herself as the female lead in both I'm Game and The Paradise, meaning she will literally be competing against herself at the box office on the same weekend. A clash of this magnitude acts as a double-edged sword for the industry. On the positive side, it creates a massive surge in overall footfalls, turning the weekend into a festival-like atmosphere. The wide variety of genres—ranging from Suriya's family sports drama to the gritty underworld themes of Khalifa and the period setting of The Paradise—ensures that there is something for every type of moviegoer. The real challenge, however, lies in how the screens are distributed once the word of mouth kicks in. Unlike a solo release where a hit can monopolize every screen in a city, these four films will have to fight to retain their shows from the very first day. An average film that might have survived in a solo window could see its screens replaced much faster in this scenario, as theaters will have three other high-demand alternatives ready to take over. It effectively becomes a survival of the fittest scenario where only the strongest content will thrive. Furthermore, the marketing costs for each production house will skyrocket as they fight for the audience's attention in a cluttered space. While Nani's The Paradise may hold the upper hand in the AP-TG region and Dulquer's I'm Game might lead in Tamil and Malayalam markets, the overlap in the Telugu-Tamil bilingual space for Suriya and the pan-Indian aspirations of the others will lead to a fragmented box office. Ultimately, the success of this August madness will depend on whether the quality of the content can sustain four different narratives simultaneously, or if one dominant film will eventually push the others out of the race.

Drishyam 3 Box Office: Mohanlal's Thriller Becomes 7th Malayalam Movie to Cross 3 Million Tickets on BookMyShow

BY SACNILK

The Drishyam franchise is more than just a series of films; it is a global phenomenon that redefined the thriller genre in Indian cinema. Ever since Georgekutty first buried that secret under a police station, audiences worldwide have been hooked on the genius of Jeethu Joseph and the unmatched screen presence of Mohanlal. The anticipation for Drishyam 3 was at a fever pitch, with fans across the globe eager to see if Georgekutty could once again protect his family from the past that never stays silent. Now that the film is out, it isn't just winning hearts—it is completely shattering the record books. Drishyam 3 has officially crossed the major milestone of 3 million ticket sales on BookMyShow on its eighth day. This achievement makes it only the 7th Malayalam movie in history to enter this elite club. What makes this record special is how the film compares to other blockbusters during the same timeframe. By the end of its first week, Drishyam 3 recorded a staggering 2.95 million tickets. For context, during their respective first weeks, Vaazha 2 sold 2.44 million tickets, while Thudarum and Lokah stood at 2.28 million and 2.27 million. Other major hits like Empuraan, Aavesham, and Manjummel Boys recorded 2 million, 1.20 million, and 1.04 million tickets respectively in their opening week. This clearly shows that Drishyam 3 is currently trending at a much faster pace than any other film before it.

While Vaazha 2 recently became a cultural phenomenon by hitting 3 million tickets in just 10 days, Drishyam 3 started its journey with an explosive energy that we haven't seen before. On its opening day alone, the film logged an unprecedented 587K tickets on BookMyShow. This destroyed the previous Day 1 record held by Thudarum (430K) and L2: Empuraan (381K), proving that the brand value of Georgekutty is currently in a league of its own.

Even as it entered the weekdays, the momentum stayed strong, with Wednesday bringing in 208.97K tickets. This steady flow pushed the total sales to approximately 2,954,450 by Wednesday night, and with the latest updates coming in today, the film has officially surged past the 3 million mark. In terms of historical rankings, Lokah Chapter 1 remains the benchmark on the platform with 5.50 million tickets. However, with Drishyam 3 already joining the elite group of seven Malayalam films to cross the 3 million mark, it is now trending towards the higher tiers of this list. Given its current pace and the support from a total of 34,920 shows, the film is well-positioned to move closer to the final totals of previous top performers like Vaazha 2 and Thudarum as it continues its theatrical run.

The film witnessed packed shows across several international markets, with Malayalam cinema fans turning out in huge numbers to experience Georgekutty's latest chapter on the big screen. The franchise value and Mohanlal's massive popularity among global audiences have played a key role in the film's brilliant run.

Drishyam 3 Day 6 Box Office: Mohanlal's film becomes the second-fastest 50 Crore Kerala grosser, trailing only L2: Empuraan

BY SACNILK

Mohanlal is back in his most iconic role, and the box office numbers suggest that Drishyam 3 is finding plenty of oxygen to sustain its theatrical run. On its first Tuesday, which marks Day 6, the film collected a net of 6.45 Cr across India. This represents a logical 16.2 percent drop from Monday, which saw 7.70 Cr. While big-budget sequels often see a sharper decline after the opening weekend, this Tuesday collection indicates a steady hold for the film. With 4,668 shows running nationwide, the total India net collection has now reached a strong 68.60 Cr. The Malayalam version remains the heavy lifter, contributing 5.50 Cr to the Tuesday net. This performance has earned the film a spot among the elite performers in Mollywood history. While the film is performing well across all South Indian states, the core strength remains in its home territory. To give you some perspective on its domestic dominance, here is how the 6-day net collections for the Malayalam version compare with other recent blockbusters: Mollywood First 6 Days Highest Collection Movie (Net)RANKMOVIE NAMEFIRST 6 DAYS NET (MALAYALAM)1L2: Empuraan₹ 71.90 Cr2Drishyam 3 (Malayalam)₹ 59.05 Cr3Thudarum₹ 43.49 Cr4Vaazha 2: Biopic of a Billion Bros₹ 40.20 Cr5Aadujeevitham - The Goat Life₹ 34.77 Cr (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Kerala remains the primary engine for the film, contributing a gross of 50.95 Cr in just six days. This makes Drishyam 3 the second fastest film to hit the 50 Crore mark in the state, sitting just behind L2: Empuraan which reached the milestone in 5 days, and ahead of both Thudarum and Vaazha 2 which took 8 days. Karnataka has also added significant moolah to the kitty, crossing the 10 Crore milestone with a 10.28 Cr gross. With APTG bringing in 7.00 Cr and Tamil Nadu adding 6.35 Cr, the total India gross has reached a solid 79.62 Cr before completing its first week. Breaking into the second spot on the 6-day chart is a massive win for the franchise. However, if we look strictly at the first Tuesday earnings, the film faces stiff competition. With a net of 5.50 Cr for the Malayalam version on Tuesday, it currently sits at the fifth spot on the list of highest 1st Tuesday earners in Mollywood, trailing behind films like L2: Empuraan and Vaazha 2.
