Shows growth on 4th Friday
It was indeed a ‘Good Friday’ for L2: Empuraan, as it witnessed 40% growth at the box office. As per Sacnilk, it made estimated earnings of 31 lakhs. The action thriller mainly saw footfalls in the Malayalam belt. Its run has concluded in Telugu and Kannada and is almost wrapping up in Hindi and Tamil.
Mohanlal’s film will enjoy growth during the fourth weekend but will conclude its lifetime journey in the coming week. The 23-day total at the Indian box office stands at 105.79 crores.
Will fail to recover the cost!
Most by now know L2: Empuraan is the most expensive Mollywood film ever made, at a whopping cost of 180 crores. The producers have recovered around 59% of the total budget. This means, as far as the Indian box office is concerned, Prithviraj Sukumaran’s directorial is officially a losing affair.
