The thriller film saw an overall occupancy of around 50.90 per cent, with night shows registering the highest occupancy of 75.85 per cent. Among the centres in Kerala, Kochi saw the highest occupancy at 63.75 per cent. Outside the state, Chennai and Bengaluru also saw 77.00 per cent and 66.75 per cent, respectively, which is an encouraging sign for a Malayalam movie. 

The positive word-of-mouth publicity for the movie led to additional shows being added and the thriller looks poised to have a Super Sunday at the box office. The other Malayalam movie to release in theatres this week is Get-Set Baby, starring Unni Mukundan. Notably, this is the first release of Unni Mukundan after the violent action thriller Marco. However, the movie, which also stars Nikhila Vimal, has got mixed reviews and does not look to be a challenge to the Kunchacko Boban-starrer.
