All-Time Blockbuster '2018' Becomes The Highest-Grossing Malayalam Movie Domestically

Kochi, June 2 - All-time Malayalam blockbuster 2018 soaring to new heights at the box office, be it domestic or overseas. Having already broken most of the box office records, "2018" has now claimed another milestone.

Directed by Jude Anthany Joseph, "2018" has grossed 101.30 crores through the 4th Thursday (24 days) which makes it the highest-grossing Malayalam movie of all time at the Indian box office, beating Mohanlal's "Pulimurugan" which grossed an estimated 100 crores (numbers might be manipulated).



The Malayalam trade sources are divided over "Pulimurugan's" box office collection as some of them claim that it didn't cross 100 crores domestically while some claim otherwise. Taking average numbers of Mohanlal-starrer into account, then "2018" is the second 100 crores grosser Malayalam movie ever in India.

The worldwide box office collection of "2018" has reached 170 crores, including approximately 68.70 crores of overseas collection. As reported earlier, the movie is already the highest-grossing Malayalam title worldwide and internationally along with some other records to its name.

"2018", produced by Kavya Film Company and PK Prime Production, is based on actual events during the 2018 Kerala floods. It stars Tovino Thomas, Kunchacko Boban, Asif Ali, Vineeth Sreenivasan, Lal, and Narain with an ensemble supporting cast.
