Mahaveeryar, the long-awaited star of Nivin Pauly hit theaters on July 21, Thursday. The project, which is directed by Abrid Shine, opened to mixed reviews and delivered an average box office performance. But when
Mahaveeryar
Completed the first 3 days of its release, Nivin Pauly’s star showed improvement in its collection.
According to the latest reports from trade experts, director Abrid Shine broke the 3 crore mark at the box office, within the first 3 days of its release.
Mahaveeryar
reportedly made a total gross collection of around Rs. 2.40 Crore from Kerala box office alone by the end of the third day of its release.
If things go at the same pace, the Nivin Pauly star could see an improvement in his gross collection today (July 24, Sunday). However, it remains to be seen whether
Mahaveeryar
will survive in theaters for a long time, as more and more highly anticipated films are released in the coming week. The first Monday collections are going to be extremely crucial for the fantasy film, as they will decide its fate.
Coming to the film, Asif Ali appears as the protagonist along with Nivin Pauly in
Mahaveeryar, which is a two-hero film. Nivin stars as a Sadhu named Apoornanandhan in director Abrid Shine. Asif, on the other hand, appears in the role of a warrior, named Veerabhadran. From the trailer, it’s obvious that
Mahaveeryar
depicts the story of a forgotten kingdom, which remains stuck in the current timeline.
Shanvi Srivastava, the popular South Indian actress, appears as the female lead role in Mahaveeryar, marking her debut in the Malayalam film industry. The project features an extensive star cast including Lal, Lalu Alex, Mallika Sukumaran, Siddique, Sudheer Karamana, Major Ravi, Vijay Menon, Padmaraj Ratheesh, Prajod Kalabhavan and others in the key roles.
