Shocking ! Mammootty movie Thoppil Joppan ends up as a flop at the box office

Megastar Mammootty’s Thoppil Joppan was released on October 7 during the Pooja holidays. The movie was directed by Johny Antony and written by Nishad Koya.

There were many specualtions and reports about the collections of the movie. Some reports in Wikipedia suggested that Thoppil Joppan had made a business of over 50 crores.

But according to our sources, Thoppil Joppan was a failure at the box office incurring a loss of about 2 crores for the producer. Our sources also inform that some of the crew members have not yet received their payment. When contacted, the producer is not even attending phone calls. They have asked, “why is the producer not responding to our calls if the movie had made big business as they claim”.

Thoppil Joppan was released alongside Mohanlal’s Pulimurugan. Within the industry, there were generally talks that Pulimurugan might flop at the box office. So apparently, the makers of Thoppil Joppan took a gamble and released their movie alongside the biggie.

But the move backfired as Pulimurugan was welcomed with great initial response and soon started breaking box office records. Whereas, Thoppil Joppan was an usual run of a mill kind movie where the only saving grace was Mammootty’s performance. Theatre counts were reduced after a week and the movie had to end up as a flop, both critically and commercially.

Thoppil Joppan was produced by Noushad Alathur under the banner Grande Film Corporation.
