Mammootty starrer flick named Pathemari had generated awesome reviews all around Kerala with critics and audience alike giving thumbs up for the film. The flick has been receiving great appreciation from the common people and Mammootty’s great performance as the lead character Pallikkal Narayanan is the highlight of the film along with the awesome screenplay and direction of national award winning director Salim Ahammad.

The flick which is distributed by Eros international all over is also getting decent collection from theaters as well. The good gross the film is receiving from screens all across kerala is a heartening signs for Malayalam cinema industry as good films getting mass support from film lovers. As per reports the film had collected rupees 4.5 cr+ from the first six days with an average of around 70 lakhs per day.

Even though the film only got around 40 lakhs on day one as people believed that it is an offbeat film. But the good mouth publicity and the report that it is not an offbeat film made the collection status raise and from the next day there is an increase in the collection even though it not as big as the mouth publicity. When it compared it Ennu Ninte Moideen still Moideen is ruling the box office with top gross from each day which already crossed 22 crores collection and on the way to the highest collected movie starring Prithviraj.

Pathemari which reportedly has a budget around 8 crore rupees have to maintain this steady collection for at least 3-4 weeks to get a profit from the theater run as per stats and the healthy mouth publicity is a hope to get there for the film. The main barrier before the film is the continuous releases coming from 16th of October like Amar Akbar Antony, Lord Livingstone 7000 Kandi, Rani Padmini, Kanal, 10 enradhukulla etc.  Availability of theaters is a problem and also if an entertainer receives good mouth publicity then people have a tendency to choose that film to watch with family than a class film.

Let’s hope that Pathemari will overcome all these to become a box office success as well.
