The critically acclaimed and commercially successful film Dies Irae continues its remarkable run at the Kerala box office. After a thunderous opening weekend, the film has maintained its momentum with an excellent hold on its first Monday, earning an estimated ₹2.80 to ₹2.90 crores across the state.
With this performance, Dies Irae has proven that its success is not just limited to the opening weekend hype. The film’s strong word-of-mouth and repeat audience have ensured steady footfalls in theatres even on a working day. This kind of hold is considered exceptional, especially in the Kerala market, where collections often dip sharply after the weekend.
The film’s total Kerala gross now stands close to ₹18 crores, further cementing its position as one of the biggest recent successes in the region. The performances, gripping storytelling, and technical brilliance have resonated well with both critics and audiences.
Trade analysts point out that Dies Irae has connected with urban and rural audiences alike, a feat achieved by very few films in recent times. The film’s theatrical run is expected to remain strong through the week, and if the trend continues, it could easily surpass the ₹25 crore mark in Kerala alone by the end of its first extended week.
Meanwhile, Dies Irae is also performing steadily in other parts of India, taking its overall All-India total to impressive levels. With such sustained momentum, the film looks poised to emerge as one of the most profitable ventures of the season.
Dies Irae continues to prove that strong content, backed by positive word-of-mouth, can ensure longevity at the box office even in a competitive release period.
