Kalam Kaval continues its extraordinary box-office march, delivering one of the strongest opening weekend performances for a Malayalam film in recent times. With impressive footfalls across Kerala and encouraging traction from the rest of India, the film has amassed a total of ₹19.34 crore in just three days, firmly establishing itself as a major commercial winner.
According to trade reports, the film has turned into a blockbuster sensation in Kerala, where it has collected a massive ₹15.50 crore over the weekend. The numbers have showcased the strong pull of the film among local audiences, driven by exceptional word of mouth and packed houseful shows across cities and towns. The buzz surrounding the film has transformed weekend screenings into a celebration, with several theatres reporting record occupancy levels.
Beyond its home state, Kalam Kaval is steadily expanding its footprint. The film has earned ₹3.84 crore from the rest of India, a noteworthy achievement for a Malayalam release that relies heavily on content strength and audience reception rather than aggressive pan-India marketing. The strong performance outside Kerala indicates rising curiosity and acceptance of Malayalam cinema among wider Indian audiences, who are drawn to the film’s gripping narrative and compelling performances.
Trade analysts note that the film’s total of ₹19.34 crore in three days marks a sensational start, putting it on track to become one of the highest-grossing Malayalam films of the year if the momentum continues. Multiplex audiences, especially in metro cities, have contributed significantly to its nationwide numbers, and the film is expected to grow further with strong weekday bookings.
Kalam Kaval has clearly struck a chord with viewers thanks to its engaging screenplay, intense emotional beats, and standout performances. The film’s combination of action, drama, and strong storytelling has made it a talking point on social media, further boosting its commercial appeal.
With such a roaring opening weekend, all eyes are now on how the film sustains its pace over the coming days. If current trends are any indication, Kalam Kaval is well on its way to emerging as a major box-office triumph.
