Aaraattu,
the
Mohanlal
starring
mass
entertainer
has
completed
its
first
weekend
(3
days)
at
the
theatres.
Despite
receiving
mixed
reviews
from
the
audiences,
Aaraattu
has
been
delivering
a
decent
performance
at
the
box
office.
Reportedly,
the
Mohanlal
starrer
was
back
to
form
on
Sunday,
after
a
dull
Saturday
box
office
collection.
According
to
the
latest
reports,
Aaraattu
has
made
a
gross
collection
of
over
Rs.
11
Crore
at
the
worldwide
box
office,
when
it
completed
the
first
weekend
of
release.
The
trade
experts
suggest
that
the
Mohanlal
starrer
has
made
a
total
gross
collection
of
around
Rs.
8
Crore
at
the
all-India
box
office
alone.
Even
though
the
day
1
collection
of
Aaraattu
ended
up
on
a
disappointing
note
at
the
Rest
Of
India
box
office,
the
movie
had
made
a
massive
opening
in
the
Kerala
and
Overseas
regions.
The
B
Unnikrishnan
directorial
made
a
total
gross
collection
of
Rs.
3.85
Crore
from
the
Kerala
box
office,
with
a
net
collection
of
Rs.
3.08
Crore
and
share
of
1.79
Crore.
The
Monday
box
office
collection
is
extremely
crucial
for
Aaraattu,
and
it
will
decide
the
fate
of
the
Mohanlal
starrer
at
the
box
office.
The
mass
entertainer
has
been
made
with
a
massive
budget
of
Rs.
25
Crore,
thus
emerging
as
one
of
the
biggest
projects
of
Malayalam
cinema
in
the
recent
past.
With
the
mixed
review
and
social
trolling,
it
is
yet
to
be
seen
where
Aaraattu
is
headed.
The
project,
which
marked
Mohanlal's
fifth
collaboration
with
director
B
Unnikrishnan,
is
written
by
Uday
Krishna.
Aaraattu
features
an
extensive
star
cast
including
Nedumudi
Venu,
Saikumar,
Vijayaraghavan,
Siddique,
Indrans,
Raghavan,
Nandu,
Kochu
Preman,
Johny
Antony,
Biju
Pappan,
Sheela,
Swasika,
Malavika,
Rachana
Narayanankutty,
and
so
on
in
the
supporting
roles.
The
project
is
bankrolled
by
RD
Illuminations
and
MPM
Group.
