Prithviraj Sukumaran and Blessy’s Aadujeevitham (The Goat Life) has entered the ₹100-crore club in just nine days of its release.
This is the Malayalam industry’s fastest ₹100-crore entry.
While 2018: Everyone is a Hero grossed ₹100 crore worldwide in 11 days last year, Manjummel Boys achieved the feat in 12 days this year.
Further, Aadujeevitham earned ₹65 crore in just four days, again a record.
Thanks to its strong content, quality filmmaking, and spellbinding performances, the movie is making the Malayalam industry proud across the globe.
With no major releases in theatres, it is expected to have a good run during the Vishu-Eid festive season. Indeed, the theatres are putting up extra shows to meet the demand.
Vineeth Sreenivasan’s Varshangalkku Shesham and Fahad Faasil’s Aavesham will be released on 11 April. Unni Mukundan’s Jai Ganesh and Indrajith Sukumaran‘s Marivillin Gopurangal are hitting the screens on April 12.
Directed by Blessy, Aadujeevitham has soulful music by AR Rahman and audiography by Resul Pookutty.
The Prithviraj Sukumaran-starrer is the third Malayalam movie to gross ₹100 crore in 2024.
Earlier, Manjummel Boys collected over ₹200 crore and Premalu earned ₹130 crore worldwide.
Interestingly, Aadujeevitham is also the first ₹100 crore film of Prithviraj and the sixth Malayalam flick to enter the elite club.
The club members include Pulimurugan (2016), Lucifer (2019), 2018: Everyone is a Hero (2023), Manjummel Boys (2024), and Premalu (2024).
According to industry experts, Aadujeevitham earned ₹56 crore gross in India and ₹5 million from overseas.
In Kerala, it grossed ₹38.15 crore in eight days and is expected to rake in ₹50 crore at the Malayalam box office this weekend.
On Day 9, it grossed ₹2 crore from 1,166 shows.
In UAE, the movie earned ₹18.5 crore gross. It is expected to set the cash registers ringing in Bahrain and Qatar where it cleared the censor.
