Mohanlal
is
undoubtedly
the
biggest
crowd-puller
Malayalam
movie
industry
has
ever
witnessed.
Now,
the
complete
actor
has
also
succeeded
in
entering
the
200-Crore
club,
that
too
within
a
time
span
of
42
days.
Interestingly,
Mohanlal's
last
three
releases,
Pulimurugan,
Oppam,
and
Janatha
Garage
have
managed
to
collect
more
than
200
Crores
together.
He
is
the
first
Malayalam
actor
to
enter
the
200-Crore
club.
Here
are
the
box
office
reports
of
Pulimurugan,
Oppam,
and
Janatha
Garage...
Pulimurugan
Magic
Pulimurugan,
the
Vysakh
directed
action
thriller
made
an
extraordinary
opening
at
the
box
office,
by
collecting 4.5
Crores
on
its
releasing
day.
The
movie
soon
became
the
fastest
Malayalam
film
to
cross
the
10-Crore
and
20-Crore
marks.
Current
Box
Office
Collection
The
movie
reportedly
crossed
the
25-Crore
mark,
on
the
6th
day
of
release.
Pulimurugan
is
performing
extremely
well
at
the
box
office,
and
is
expected
to
become
the
first
Malayalam
movie
to
cross
100-Crore
mark.
Oppam
Mohanlal
made
a
grand
comeback
to
the
success
track
with
Oppam,
directed
by
Priyadarshan.
Even
though
the
movie
had
an
average
opening,
it
later
went
on
to
impress
both
the
audiences
and
critics.
Collection
Till
Date
The
movie has
made
a
total
gross
collection
of
about
45
Crores
from
the
worldwide
box
office,
within
the
first
30
days
of
its
theatrical
run. It
is
expected
to
break
the
record
of
Mohanlal's
Drishyam.
Janatha
Garage
Janatha
Garage,
the
movie
which
had
Mohanlal
in
a
key
role,
made
a
grand
opening
at
the
box
office,
by
collecting
more
than
20
Crores
on
its
release
day.
Final
Collections
When
it
completed
the
first
33
days
of
release,
Janatha
Garage
made
a
worldwide
gross
collection
of
136
Crores.
Thus,
the
movie
has
become
the
highest
grosser
of
Telugu
cinema
in
2016.
Both
Pulimurugan,
the
action
thriller
directed
by
Vysakh,
and
Oppam,
the
thriller
movie,
directed
by
veteran
film-maker
Priyadarshan,
are
performing
extremely
well
at
the
Kerala
box
office.
It
is
noticeable
that
the
release
of
the
Vysakh-directed
movie
has
not
affected
the
box
office
performance
of
the
Priyadarshan
project,
which
was
released
exactly
one
month
before
the
former.
Even
though
Janatha
Garage
was
a
Jr.
NTR
film,
Mohanlal
stole
the
show
with
his
exceptional
performance
in
the
movie.
The
actor
was
widely
appreciated
by
both
the
Telugu
audiences
and
industry
members.
Thus,
three
Mohanlal
films
together
have
done
a
total
business
of
more
than
200
Crores,
within
a
time
span
of
42
days.
Well,
this
man
is
truly
magic,
and
we
hope
he
doesn't
stop
doing
wonders.
