Mohanlal’s Thudarum crosses Rs 60 crore mark in 9 Days

Malayalam cinema’s superstar Mohanlal is on a dream run at the box office. His latest release

Thudarum

has officially crossed the Rs 60 crore mark in just 9 days, reaffirming his hold over the box office . The film, which opened on a modest note, steadily gained momentum through its first week and has now become another notable success in the actor’s illustrious career.

Thudarum collected Rs 5.25 crore on its opening day (Friday), predominantly from Kerala and other Malayalam-speaking regions. Strong word-of-mouth and Mohanlal’s star power led to a significant 63.81% jump on Saturday, with collections reaching Rs 8.6 crore. The film continued to perform well on Sunday, adding Rs 10.5 crore to its kitty.

The weekdays remained steady, with Monday bringing in Rs 7.15 crore and Tuesday holding reasonably well at Rs 6.5 crore. Interestingly, even by Wednesday and Thursday, Thudarum managed to stay above the Rs 6 crore mark, ending its first week with a solid Rs 51.4 crore total — of which Rs 50.34 crore came from its Malayalam version alone.
In its second weekend, the film held strong despite new releases like Suriya's

Retro

, Nani's

Hit 3

and Ajay Devgn's Raid 2. On its second Friday, Thudarum collected Rs 5.4 crore, followed by an early estimate of Rs 6 crore on its second Saturday, taking its 9-day total to Rs 62.8 crore.
This impressive performance marks back-to-back triumphs for Mohanlal, who just a few months delivered the biggest blockbuster in Malayalam cinema history with

L2: Empuraan

, directed by Prithviraj. The much-awaited sequel had set new benchmarks, and now Thudarum is further consolidating his box office dominance.
Experts are optimistic about Thudarum’s continued run, especially with Sunday collections expected to show another spike. If the trend holds, the film could comfortably inch closer to the Rs 75 crore mark in the coming days.
