Since January, five Malayalam films – Abraham Ozler, Anweshippin Kandethum, Premalu, Bramayugam, and Manjummel Boys – have been released and have performed exceptionally well at the box office. Find out how much director Chidambaram’s film – Manjummel Boys earned on Day 19 at the Box Office.
Manjummel Boys continues to exhibit strong legs at the box office, showcasing sustained audience interest. As per early estimates from Sacknilk, the film raked in approximately 2.75 crore net in India on its 19th day, maintaining a healthy weekday collection. This follows an impressive weekend run, with Day 16 (3rd Friday) grossing 5.5 crore, Day 17 (3rd Saturday) collecting 8.5 crore, and Day 18 (3rd Sunday) minting 8.9 crore.
Looking closer at the film’s box office trajectory, Manjummel Boys opened with a solid week one collection of 26.35 crore, indicating strong initial buzz and audience pull. It further consolidated its position in week two, grossing 37.15 crore, showcasing remarkable growth. The weekday collections, though expected to be lower than the weekend, have remained healthy, reflecting continued audience patronage.
With a current total collection of 89.15 crore nett, Manjummel Boys is steadily inching towards the coveted 100 crore club. We predict the film to achieve this milestone comfortably within the next few days, solidifying its position as a major commercial success.
Here’s a detailed breakdown of its box office performance so far:
Week 1: 26.35 Cr – A strong opening, indicating positive word-of-mouth and audience appreciation.
Day 18 (3rd Sunday): 8.9 Cr – Slight jump from Saturday, but still a good showing.
Day 19 (estimated): 2.75 Cr – We expect weekday collections to settle around this range.
On the overseas front, as well, the film managed to achieve good numbers. Manjummel Boys, starring Soubin Shahir, Lal, Sreenath Bhasi, Balu Varghese, and Ganapathy in key roles, collected 59.00 crore (after 18 days) at the overseas box office.
Manjummel Boys Creates Controversy
Beyond box office success, Manjummel Boys is also making news for other reasons. Writer B. Jeyamohan’s blog post criticizing the film sparked outrage on social media.
Jeyamohan, a Malayali himself, slammed the film for supposedly glorifying rowdyism, alcoholism, and a lack of social responsibility among Malayali youth. He specifically criticized the portrayal of a group of youngsters who travel and cause trouble while vacationing.
However, it’s important to note that Manjummel Boys is based on a real-life incident. The story revolves around a group of friends who get into trouble while exploring a cave. The film’s positive reception in Tamil Nadu, including its homages to Kamal Haasan’s classic Guna, further complicates the controversy.
