Mohanlal’s Vrusshabha Opens To Rs 61 Lakh Day 1 In India As Reviews Skew Negative

Trade estimates point to a steep gap with the film’s reported Rs 70 crore budget.

Overview

  • Industry tracker Sacnilk pegs opening day collections at Rs 61 lakh net in India, with early reports placing worldwide Day 1 around Rs 70 lakh.
  • The Malayalam version led with about Rs 46 lakh, while Telugu took roughly Rs 13 lakh and Hindi about Rs 2 lakh, indicating weak traction beyond the home market.
  • BookMyShow logged approximately 8.54K tickets sold on opening day—about six tickets per minute—signaling very low theatrical turnout.
  • Early reviews largely fault the story, visual effects and execution, though Mohanlal’s performance and Sam CS’s score drew isolated praise.
  • The high‑budget fantasy was released on December 25 in Malayalam, Telugu and Hindi, and trade analysis suggests it would need roughly Rs 70 crore net to be considered safe and around Rs 140 crore for a clean hit; all figures are estimates that may be revised.
