'Aavesham Continues its Phenomenal Box Office Run
Aavesham, the highly anticipated Malayalam film, has continued its impressive performance at the Indian box office in its second week, grossing a remarkable Rs. 30 crore. This brings its total earnings to a substantial Rs. 66 crore, marking a mere 7% drop from the previous week. Notably, the first week's collections were boosted by the festive period of Eid and Vishu, making this hold even more impressive. Even the daily holds remain strong, with the last day of the second week witnessing a decline of only 20% compared to the previous week.
Overseas, the film has raked in another USD 5.10 million (approximately Rs. 42.50 crore), pushing its worldwide gross to a staggering Rs. 108.50 crore. This remarkable achievement makes Aavesham only the seventh Malayalam film ever to cross the coveted Rs. 100 crore mark globally.
