Ajith
Kumar
starrer
Vivegam,
is
the
big
release
of
the
week.
The
movie,
which
hit
the
theatres
today
(August
24,
2017),
has
made
a
huge
buzz
in
Kerala,
as
well,
offering
a
tight
competition
to
the
other
Malayalam
movies.
In
fact,
Vivegam
is
the
biggest
movie
release
of
the
year
in
Kerala,
after
the
blockbuster
film
Baahubali
2,
which
had
hit
the
theatres
in
the
month
of
April.
The
Kerala
distribution
rights
of
Vivegam
has
been
bagged
by
Tomichan
Mulakupadom
and
the
film
has
been
released
in
close
to
309
screens
in
Kerala.
The
Second
Biggest
Release
In
Kerala
As
mentioned
above,
Vivegam
has
been
released
in
309
theatres
in
Kerala,
with
1650
shows
on
its
opening
day.
Now,
Vivegam
is
only
behind
Baahubali
2,
in
the
terms
of
screen
count
in
Kerala.
Baahubali
2
was
released
in
above
315
screens.
The
Biggest
Release
For
An
Ajith
Starrer
It
is
for
the
first
time
that
an
Ajith
starrer
is
getting
such
a
big
release
in
Kerala.
The
actor,
definitely
enjoys
a
huge
fan
base
in
Kerala
now
and
the
big
release
of
Vivegam
is
indeed
a
sign
of
that
fact.
To
grab
above
300
screens
is
not
a
simple
achievement.
Ajith
Beats
Mammootty
&
Mohanlal's
Records
In
fact,
Thala
Ajith
has
achieved
something
which
not
even
Mammootty
and
Mohanlal
have
achieved.
The
Great
Father
and
Pulimurugan
were
the
biggest
ever
releases
of
Mammootty
and
Mohanlal
respectively,
but
neither
of
them
had
managed
to
get
above
300
screens
and
1000
plus
shows
on
its
opening
day.
Will
Vivegam
Beat
Baahubali
2?
The
opening
day
collection
record
at
the
Kerala
box
office
is
held
by
Baahubali
2,
which
hit
the
theatres,
this
year.
Reportedly,
Baahubali
2
had
fetched
above
6
crores
at
the
Kerala
box
office
on
day
1
and
with
Vivegam
getting
such
a
big
release,
there
are
chances
for
the
movie
to
break
the
record
of
Baahubali
2.
Solid
Advance
Booking
For
The
Ajith
Starrer
Importantly,
the
advance
booking
for
the
opening
day
is
solid
for
Vivegam
in
Kerala.
In
Ernakulam
multiplexes,
the
film
has
56
shows
on
its
opening
day
and
the
pre-booking
is
more
than
impressive.
Well,
Vivegam
has
everything
in
it
to
set
the
box
office
on
fire.
Let
us
wait
and
see
how
this
Thala
Ajith
starrer
will
go
on
to
perform
at
the
box
office.
