Mammootty in Kalamkaval

Mammootty's latest film, Kalamkaval, hit the big screen yesterday (December 5), with numerous theatres screening it across the state. This thriller, which also features Vinayakan in the key part, was met with a lot of excitement. Let's examine the movie's first day box office collection...

Kalamkaval Box Office Collection Day 1

Sacnilk claims that the film made roughly Rs 4.75 crore, surpassing the opening day receipts of Bazooka and Dominic and The Ladies' Purse. With more than 102 shows added on December 5, particularly evening and night shows, it is anticipated to gain more traction this weekend. The Malayalam megastar hasn't had a box office success this year, with Dominic and The Ladies' Purse earning just Rs 1.75 crore on its opening day and Bazooka earning Rs 3.7 crore, so this figure is significant. These films are also yet to have an OTT debut. On the first day, Kalamkaval had already made over Rs 1.25 crore in gross pre-sales.

Kalamkaval's response on Day 1

Mammootty's major comeback to the big screen is not receiving the tremendously good response that fans had anticipated. Fans have praised the Malayalam megastar's performance as outstanding, suggesting that he is the film's strength playing the antagonist, Stanley Das. The OTTplay review describes it as a thriller that depends more on the style and setting than on the plot twists. The film's predictability may have been added by its influence from Cyanide Mohan's case. More details of the movie's impact will be known after the weekend shows.

In the meantime, it has been reported that SonyLIV has purchased the digital rights to this film, and following its successful theatrical run, the platform will start streaming the movie.
