Oppam and Pulimurugan created history at Calicut city
We saw many films creating records in box office. But what two Mohanlal films had done here in Mollywood for the past two months has been just incredible and stunning.
It was a never seen before box office hunt from the biggest star and greatest actor in Mollywood history. His films named Oppam and Pulimurugan, which released on September 8th and October 7th respectively, had hunted down all existing box office records in Malayalam Cinema History and creating new milestones each and every day.
Oppam had crossed 56 crores from worldwide run and Puli Murugan had grossed near 70 crores from its worldwide run. Both these films had made all-time records in most of the screens and cities here in Kerala.
Now, in Calicut City, both Oppam and Pulimurugan created history by crossing 1 crore+ from the single screens alone.
From Calicut Radha alone, Oppam had grossed 1 crore+ from 50 days. Drishyam is the highest single screen grosser from Calicut as it had a gross around 1.69 crore from there.
From Calicut Film City, Oppam had grossed close to 37 lakhs and the total Calicut city figure of Oppam had crossed 1.38 crores. Pulimurugan on the other hand, had crossed 1.13 crores from Calicut single screens alone, in just 21 days time.
The Film City collection is not available now and it will be updated later. But it is now damn sure that Pulimurugan will become the first ever Malayalam Movie to gross around 2 crore from Calicut single screens.
Calicut single screen collection of Pulimurugan is like this: from Coronation- 60,22, 754, from Kairali- 51, 15, 854 and from Sree (First day only)-1, 67, 940.
