Lucifer becomes the highest grossing Malayalam movie in Tamil Nadu

Mohanlal’s ‘Lucifer’, which hit screens worldwide on March 28, continues to shatter multiple box office records. After entering the elite Rs 100 crore club from its earnings in eight days of theatrical run, the movie recently zoomed past the Rs 150 crore mark. The movie has taken just three weeks time to achieve this remarkable feat.

Adding another feather to its cap, ‘Lucifer’ has now become the highest Malayalam grosser in Tamil Nadu. In 24 days, the Mohanlal starrer has collected more than the lifetime earnings of previous record holder, ‘Premam’, which enjoyed a theatrical run of over 200 days in the neighboring state.

‘Lucifer’, directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran and scripted by Muriali Gopy, is a mass entertainer set in the backdrop of Kerala politics. Mohanlal plays the lead role in the movie, that also stars Vivek Oberoi, Tovino Thomas, Indrajith Sukumaran, Manju Warrier, Sai Kumar and Saniya Iyappan in prominent roles.

Besides its excellent run in Kerala and RoI centres like Bangalore and Chennai, ‘Lucifer’ is doing huge business in major overseas centres like the US, GCC, European countries, New Zealand and Australia.
