Kalakalappu
has
emerged
as
a
surprising
winner
at
the
Tamil
Box
Office
of
this
year.
The
movie
made
with
the
minimal
budget
is
doing
wonderful
business,
thereby
bringing
smiles
on
the
faces
of
the
makers
of
the
film.
The
film
was
released
in
Tamil
Nadu
and
Karnataka
in
259
screens

Having
received
good
reviews
from
the

favourable
word-of-mouth,
the
movie

managed
to
collect
Rs
5
crore
plus
in
its
first
weekend.
Adding
to
that
there
wasn't
any

UTV
Chief
Dhananjayan
Govindan
said,
“The
responses
for
Kalakalappu
have
been
extremely
good
and
it
is
doing
well
at
the
Box
Office
considering
the
fact
that
the
movie
does
not
have
a
big
star
cast
and
made
with
the
medium-budget.”
