Kerala Box Office: Puthan Panam Collection Report 30 Days

Mammootty’s last release was Puthan Panam, directed by ace filmmaker Ranjith. The movie was released on April 12 amidst high expeditions majorly due to the reunion of Ranjith with Mammootty after a brief gap.

The duo has earlier teamed up for some highly acclaimed movies, so the audience were expecting a quality movie this time also. But unfortunately, Puthan Panam failed to impress the audience as well the critics. The reviews were mostly mixed to negative and that reflected on the box office collections.

According to reports from trade sources, Puthan Panam has managed to gross Rs 6.46 crores from it’s 30 days theatrical run in Kerala. After the tax pay, the net pay is estimated as Rs 5.20 crores and the producer’s share is amounted to be around Rs 2.92 crores.

Puthan Panam was based on the concept of demonetisation. It was a different take on director Ranjith’s National award winning movie Indian Rupee. But the execution faltered and could not raise the expectations. Mammootty essayed the role of Nithyananda Shenoy in the movie. His terrific enunciation of Kasaragod slang was highly appreciated by the critics.

Puthan Panam was produced by 3 Color Cinemas, a new production company jointly owned by Abraham Mathew, director Ranjith and actor Arun Narayan.

Producer BR Shetty wants The Mahabharata to be better than Bollywood and Hollywood films

The Baahubali franchise has taken Indian cinema to a global level. The gargantuan success of the series has shown what Indian cinema is capable of and the real potential of our movies in the global market. Above all, Baahubali broke the popular notion that Indian cinema is more than Bollywood.

The movie is being produced by UAE based Indian businessman BR Shetty at a whopping budget of Rs 1000 crores (USD 150 million). In a recent chat session with popular radio channel Red FM, the producer opened up about how the project was initiated.

Apparently, director VA Shrikumar Menon and MT Vasudevan Nair had discussed about the movie adaptation of Mahabaratha, but they were skeptical about the budget as their estimate was around Rs 750 crores. But BR Shetty was willing to invest Rs 1000 crores as he wanted the movie to be better than any Hollywood or Bollywood movie.

He added that the pre-production works have already been started. VA Shrikumar Menon and his team are working on the cast and other technical crew. They have already had talks with Academy Award winner AR Rahman and are trying to bring on board some of the best available technicians from across the world.

MT Vasudevan Nair’s novel Randamoozham is based on the Hindu mythological epic Mahabharatha. It is told from Bheemasenan’s perspective and Mohanlal is playing that character. Other leading actors from Indian cinema and Hollywood also will be part of the movie.

The Mahabharata will be made as a multilingual in English, Malayalam, Kannada, Tamil, Hindi and Telugu. It will also be dubbed into all major Indian and foreign languages. It is scheduled to go on floors by September 2018.

The movie will be made in two parts with the second installment hitting screens within three months time from the first part’s release. The makers are eyeing to release the first part movie by 2020.

B Unnikrishnan about working with Manju Warrier and Mohanlal

Director B Unnikrishnan is currently on a break after completing the first two schedules of his upcoming movie Villain, a crime thriller starring Mohanlal in the lead. It is one of the most anticipated films of the year as the director has managed to get on board some big names from the south.

Mohanlal is playing the role of Mathew Manjooran, a retired police officer in the film. He will be appearing in two different looks; one in a salt n pepper bearded avatar and the other in a clean shaven cop look. Manju Warrier is playing his wife’s role in the film.

Villain is Manju’s fourth film alongside Mohanlal, but this is the first time they will be seen as a married couple. They last acted together in 2015 for Sathyan Anthikad’s Ennum Eppozhum.

Director B Unnikrishnan has great admiration for both the actors and expressed it through a recent Facebook update. He shared a photo of him with Mohanlal and Manju and along with that wrote, “It was great to to work with two of our greatest actors ever”.

Villain is the director’s fourth film with Mohanlal. He has previously worked with the superstar in Madampi, Grandmaster and Mr Fraud. This is his first film with Manju Warrier.

Not Prabhas; Then who was the most paid in Baahubali?

Baahubali 2: The Conclusion has been doing some unprecedented business for an Indian movie ever since it released on April 28. The movie has become the first Indian movie to cross the 1000 crore and is now inching close to 1200 cr from the worldwide box office.

The Baahubali series was made on a whopping budget of Rs 430 crore. Baahubali: The Beginning cost Rs 180 crore, while the recently released sequel was made on Rs 250 crore. But not many know about how much was paid for the lead actors in the movie.

Prabhas, who played the dual role of Amarendra Baahubali and his son Shivu, dedicated almost five years to focus entirely on this magnum opus. He did not commit for any other movie or even sign fot any endorsements during this period. There are stories that he even turned down a 10 crore offer for an advertisement.

Baahubali’s profit is so massive as the ratio to the production cost and the actors remuneration is absolutely different from how things work in Bollywood. In Hindi cinema, a top actor might charge not just a major portion of the film’s entire budget, but also have a share in the final profits. However, in Baahubali all the actors had a fixed pay and that is the reason for such a big commercial success.

Recently, a Telugu media had reported about the remuneration list of the actors in Baahubali. Lead actor Prabhas was paid Rs 25 crores while Rana Daggubati was paid Rs 15 crores. Both Tamannaah and Anushka charged Rs 5 crores each. Sathyaraj, who essayed the pivotal role of Kattappa was paid Rs 2 crores for the movie.

Director SS Rajamouli is the most paid in entire crew of Baahubali. The movie was a product of his unparalleled vision and genius. He was paid Rs 28 crore for helming the entire franchise.

Apart from this hefty amount, Rajamouli also got one third of the series’ profits. Baahubali: The Beginning made over Rs 600 crore, and Baahubali 2: The Conclusion is expected to cross the Rs 1500 crore mark.
