This week’s Malayalam release – Malayalee From India opened its doors to audiences on Wednesday, generating initial buzz. However, its performance on the second day has cast a shadow of uncertainty on its box office prospects. Scroll down to know Malayalee From India’s box office collections on Day 2.
Directed by Dijo Jose Antony Malayalee From India stars Nivin Pauly, Dhyan Sreenivasan, Anaswara Rajan, and Shine Tom Chacko in key roles. The film opened its innings at the box office with a decent collection of 2.90 crore on Wednesday. However, its performance on the second day has thrown up some worrying signs. Early estimates suggest a significant drop of over 50% on Thursday, bringing in just 1.35 crore.
This, coupled with a concerningly low Malayalam occupancy rate of just 26% on the second day, raises concerns about the Nivin Pauly-starrer’s ability to connect with audiences and build momentum over the crucial weekend period.

Positive word-of-mouth is the golden ticket for a film’s success over the crucial weekend period. Without strong audience buzz and recommendations, Malayalee From India might find it difficult to gain traction. The coming days will be particularly important for the film’s fate.
Critic reviews are often the first port of call for moviegoers looking to decide what to watch. Positive reviews from critics can reignite interest in a film and encourage audiences to give it a chance. If Malayalee From India receives strong critical acclaim, it could spark a turnaround.
The first weekend of a film’s release is make-or-break, especially for a film without the backing of a huge star cast or a major production house. If Malayalee From India fails to show growth and recoup some of its investment over the next two days, its chances of recovering its budget and turning a profit could significantly diminish.
Social media chatter and audience reviews will also be key indicators of whether the film is finding an audience. A strong positive response from viewers online can create a wave of interest that propels the film forward. Conversely, negative audience reception can quickly turn the tide against a film.
While the initial drop is concerning, it’s still early to write off Malayalee From India. The coming days will be crucial in determining the film’s ultimate box office fate. Whether it can bounce back, win over audiences, and emerge as a success story remains to be seen.
