Dulquer Salmaan’s much-awaited film I’m Game released in theaters on September 3. The Malayalam film was initially scheduled to release on Onam. However, the makers decided to skip the race and opted for a solo release. Despite the postponement, though, the film struggled to secure screens amid the massive success of Nivin Pauly’s Bethlehem Kudumba Unit. So, did Dulquer Salmaan’s star power come through and help him secure a strong opening? Scroll ahead for the detailed box office report!

How Much Did I’m Game Earn On Its Opening Day?

Dulquer Salmaan’s homecoming film was released amid much anticipation and hype. However, the film faced a challenge from Nivin Pauly’s Bethlehem Kudumba Unit. Even though the film is in its second week and approaching its third week, it is going strong at the box office. The rom-com proved heavy on Dulquer Salmaan’s film while securing shows for itself. On its opening day, the Malayalam fantasy action thriller earned 5.05 crore net in India, which equals 5.96 crore gross. Overseas, the film earned 5 crore. This brings the film’s worldwide total to 10.96 crore.

I’m Game Becomes 4th Biggest Opening of Dulquer Salmaan’s Career

Dulquer Salmaan‘s latest film was expected to revive his box office glory in Mollywood. His last Malayalam film, King Of Kotha, released in 2023. Despite its strong opening, the film eventually tanked at the box office. I’m Game, too, received mixed reviews, with the audience blaming the second half for pulling the film down.
