New Delhi: Actor Manoj K. Jayan, known for his role as Vincent aka Vakkachan in the popular film Rekhachithram, recently shared his surprise at the film’s incredible success, which has surpassed ₹75 crore at the global box office just 25 days after its release. Reflecting on his experience with the film, Jayan confessed that he never anticipated it would achieve such blockbuster status.
“My first day as a Vakkachan in Rekhachichithram… first shot, I didn’t think that I would start acting in a movie which is going to get 75 crores + collection,” Jayan shared, highlighting the unexpected success of the film, which has already made a significant impact on audiences across Kerala, Chennai, and Bangalore. Rekhachithram marks a substantial return for Jayan to the big screen after a considerable hiatus, and his performance as the villain has garnered acclaim from critics and audiences.
Directed by Jofin T. Chacko and produced by Venu Kunnappilly, the film features Asif Ali and Anaswara Rajan in leading roles. While Jayan’s portrayal of a formidable antagonist has been particularly noted, the film’s overall box-office performance has been remarkable. Asif Ali has also reached a notable milestone, joining a select group of actors who have crossed the ₹50 crore threshold following Kishkindha Kaandam.
