Box Office: 'Empuraan' Hits 100 Crore Gross In India

Kochi, April 4 - Superstar Mohanlal's action thriller L2: Empuraan has topped 100 crores gross collection at the Indian box office, becoming only the 4th Malayalam movie of all-time to achieve the feat.

Directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, Empuraan scored approximately 4.50 crores gross collection on its 8th day, which took its total to around 103 crores gross domestically. The collection includes approximately 71.50 crores gross in the home state, Kerala.



Empuraan is the 4th Malayalam film after Manjummel Boys (167.50+ crores gross), 2018 (110.50 crores gross), and Pulimurugan (100 crores gross), and the second for Mohanlal to score the milestone of 100 crores gross in the domestic market.

The film might become the biggest Mollywood grosser in India, but for that to happen, it needs to perform strongly outside Kerala, which hasn't happened due to mixed word of mouth. The controversy surrounding the films hasn't helped it much either, as it has minted around 31 crores in the rest of India market in 8 days.

Meanwhile, Empuraan is nearing the top Manjummel Boys (241 crores) at the global box office to become the biggest Malayalam grosser of all time. In 8 days, it has grossed around 236 crores worldwide and is likely to claim the number 1 spot by the second Saturday (10 days).
