Blockbuster 'The Kerala Story' Completes 50 Days In Cinemas With Excellent Box Office Collection

Mumbai, June 24 - One of the biggest blockbusters post the covid-19 pandemic, director Sudipto Sen's The Kerala Story has completed 50 days in cinemas, which is no short of miraculous achievement. The movie has been in controversy since its release due to its subject but that couldn't stop it from scoring big numbers at the box office. ## The Kerala Story falls in similar lines as Vivek Agnihotri's last year's blockbuster The Kashmir Files. TKF, which took the opening of just 3.55 crores net, ended up as one of the biggest grosser of 2022 with over 250 crores net collection. ## Unlike TKF, The Kerala Story had a much bigger opening of 8.03 crores net, however, it is most likely to finish below TKF's final total. In 50 days, TKS has scored around 242 crores net (239 crores Hindi) collection, which is the second highest for a Bollywood movie in 2023, after Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan, and 21st overall of all time in Hindi.## At the overseas box office, the Adah Sharma-fronted drama film has seen a good run with approx. 15.50 crores gross, this takes the total worldwide collection of the film to 302 crores. TKS is currently the 3rd highest-grossing Indian film of the year after Pathaan and Adipurush.## Both, The Kerala Story and The Kashmir Files have been made in similar budgets of around 15-20 crores and both the movies have managed to top 300 crores worldwide gross each. Both movies have turned into one of the most profitable ventures in Indian cinema of all-time. ## Stay tuned...
