Mohanlal and Joshiy team’s much awaited big budget flick Laila O Laila had hit the screens all over India on May 14 th Thursday this year and the film had opened to a mixed bag of reviews from the public. There is a lot of people who liked the flick and there are ones which said that it has not raised up to the expectations. But it seems that majority had liked it and that is what the collection report from the first two days says to us. There were Houseful shows everywhere even in the heavy rain and in multiplexes the film had all set to mark new records in advance booking status. Even in big theaters like Ernakulam Kavitha the film is running in packed houses even after getting mixed word of mouth. The collection report we got from the trustable source says that in the first day the film had collected 1.45 crores from Kerala.

The first day collection was rupees 1.45 crore and it was one of the highest first day collection in this year’s mollywood box-office. On the second day the collection dropped a bit but sources says that it still crossed rupees 1 crore mark and that is really a great one for a film that got mixed word of mouth. And also Friday has other releases as well. Saturday and Sunday seems to be great for Laila o Laila as the houseful shows are still reporting from all main centers.

The great sign for the film is that family audience are pouring in for the film after the first two days as many reviews are out which said that even though the film is action oriented it has family and comic element too to satisfy the family spectators. The film is primarily for the fans of Mohanlal and Mohanlal is delivered this time as well for them. He is the main attraction of the film and his power packed action performance was really giving a boost to the flick in box office.

It seems that our producers were going behind Mohanlal as his mere presence can make a film profitable even after getting negative reviews. Films like Mr.Fraud, Peruchazhi etc were the examples of that which was at last become profitable for the makers even after getting mixed word of mouth mostly on the negative side.
