Kalamkaval Vs Eko Box Office Collection Day 3: The neo-noir crime thriller, which hit the theatres on December 5, 2025, has been receiving excellent reviews from both the audiences and critics.

With its 3 days box office collection, the film has surpassed the first weekend collections of Sandeep Pradeep starrer, Eko.

Kalamkaval Vs Eko Box Office Collection Day 3

As reported earlier, Mammootty and Vinayakan's crime thriller film has now crossed the ₹40 crore mark at the worldwide box office, within the first 3 days of its release. The production banner, Mammootty Kampany recently revealed that Kalamkaval made a total worldwide collection of ₹44.15 crore, during its first weekend at the theatres. The Jithin K Jose directorial has now beaten the 3 days collection of Eko, the Sandeep Pradeep starrer which hit the theatres on November 21, 2025.

The Dinjith Ayyathan directorial, which is the third installment of the director's 'animal trilogy' had collected around ₹6.75 crore at the worldwide box office, when it completed the first 3 days (first weekend) of its release. It is indeed an excellent box office figure for Eko, which is made in a moderate budget, with no big stars in its cast. However, the Mammootty starrer is evidently way ahead of the Sandeep Pradeep starrer, which is expected to collect around ₹50 crore within its lifetime run.

Kalamkaval Box Office: What Is On Cards?

If things go at the same rate, the neo-noir crime thriller will cross the ₹50 crore mark at the box office, mostly within the first 5 days of its release. In that case, Kalamkaval has high chances to enter the ₹100 crore club of Malayalam cinema, by the second weekend. Now, it is also safe to suggest that the Jithin K Jose directorial might also emerge as the highest grossing film in the megastar's illustrious career, within its lifetime run.
