Box Office: 'Empuraan' Emerges Biggest Malayalam Opener Of All Time With Pre-Sales Only

Kochi, March 22 - Superstar Mohanlal's action thriller L2: Empuraan has shattered many records even before the first show begins. The movie has been creating a sensation ever since the advance booking opened in India and worldwide and this has led it to create records.

Directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, Empuraan pre-sales have crossed 10 crore gross in India for the opening day (including fan shows) while worldwide sales are nearing 30 crore gross. With this, it has become the biggest Malayalam opener of all time worldwide with pre-sales only.



The previous biggest Mollywood opener was Mohanlal's Marakkar (20+ crores gross) and Empuraan is already 10 crores more with still 5 days left for the release. The booking trend indicates the film to open with 50+ crores gross worldwide which looked unthinkable before for a small film industry like Mollywood.

Empuraan is sure to become the biggest Malayalam grosser of all time, by beating Manjummal Boys (241 crores gross). If the movie gets positive word of mouth, then it is certain to enter uncharted box office territories for a Malayalam title and how far it can go is the question to be answered.

Produced by Aashirvad Cinemas and Sree Gokulam Movies, the movie stars Mohanlal as Khureshi-Ab'raam / Stephen Nedumpally, alongside an ensemble cast consisting of Sukumaran, Abhimanyu Singh, Tovino Thomas, Manju Warrier, Saniya Iyappan, Sachin Khedekar, among others in key roles. It is scheduled to be released on March 27 in Malayalam, Hindi, Telugu, Kannada, and Tamil languages.
