Empuraan
The much-awaited sequel to Lucifer, L2: Empuraan, starring Malayalam superstar Mohanlal and directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, had a phenomenal opening at the box office on March 27. According to trade estimates, the film collected around ₹22 crore nett on its first day in India, making it the biggest opener in Malayalam cinema history.
The action thriller, which released in multiple languages, had already created a buzz with its massive ₹80 crore advance bookings worldwide.
As per data from tracking website Sacnilk, L2: Empuraan saw strong collections across all languages:
Malayalam version: ₹19.45 crore
Telugu version: ₹1.2 crore
Hindi version: ₹50 lakh
Tamil version: ₹80 lakh
Kannada version: ₹5 lakh
The film’s opening day collections have already surpassed the previous record held by Mohanlal’s ‘Marakkar’, which earned ₹20 crore worldwide on its first day. With international collections added, Empuraan could easily cross ₹50 crore gross worldwide within a day.
Critics and audiences have praised Empuraan for its gripping storyline, intense action sequences, and strong performances. The film is expected to continue its box office dominance with the extended Eid holiday weekend boosting ticket sales.
Directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, L2: Empuraan features a stellar cast including Mohanlal, Prithviraj, Manju Warrier, Abhimanyu Singh, Tovino Thomas, Suraj Venjaramoodu, and Saniya Ayyappan.
Much like its predecessor, Lucifer, the sequel ends on a cliffhanger, setting up an exciting lead-in to Part 3 of the franchise.
With its record-breaking opening and growing audience excitement, L2: Empuraan is on track to become one of the highest-grossing Malayalam films ever.
