Odiyan does a pre-release business of Rs 100 crores!!

The highly anticipated Mohanlal starrer ‘Odiyan’ is set to storm screens this Friday (December 14). The pre-release buzz is even bigger than ‘Pulimurugan’, that trade experts firmly believe that the movie has the potential to become the next 100 crore grosser from Mollywood. Taking everyone by surprise, director VA Shrikumar Menon has claimed that the movie has done history by registering a pre-release business of over Rs 100 crores.

According to him, ‘Odiyan’ is the first Malayalam movie, third from South India and eleventh in Indian cinema history to achieve this feat. The pre-release business is calculated by taking into account the various rights and pre-booking sale.
