Despite facing stiff competition from Vaazha, Nunakkuzhi managed to garner a respectable total. The film’s domestic gross stands at 8.02 crore, while its overseas collections have reached 6.5 crore, bringing the worldwide total to 14.52 crore.
While Nunakkuzhi has performed well, it has not quite matched the box office success of Vaazha, which grossed 10.40 crore in 7 days. The film’s estimated budget of 8–10 crore means it still has a few more days to recoup its investment and turn a profit.
Basil Joseph, who plays the lead role in Nunakkuzhi, is one of the most sought-after actors in Malayalam cinema. He reportedly commanded a fee of 1 crore for this film, aligning with his status as one of the top-paid actors in the industry.
