Nivin Pauly and Mamitha Baiju’s Bethlehem Kudumba Unit has achieved a remarkable milestone at the Kerala box office. The romantic comedy crossed the magical ₹100 Cr gross mark in just 15 days, becoming the fastest film ever to reach this benchmark in Kerala cinema history.
Record-Breaking Box Office Performance
The theatrical run of Bethlehem Kudumba Unit in Kerala continues to go bonkers even after two weeks. The film’s trend at the box office is insane and absolutely unstoppable, defying typical collection patterns.
Trade circles are excited about the film’s trajectory and anticipate that Kerala is set to witness its first ₹150 Cr grosser with this Nivin Pauly starrer. The momentum shows no signs of slowing down as the film enters its third week.
The achievement is particularly significant as Bethlehem Kudumba Unit becomes the fourth film to join Kerala’s prestigious ₹100 Cr gross club, while also holding the distinction of being the fastest to reach this milestone.
Kerala’s Elite ₹100 Cr Gross Club
| Film | Gross Collection | Milestone |
|---|---|---|

| Lokah | ₹122 Cr | — |
| Thudarum | ₹119 Cr | — |
| Bethlehem Kudumba Unit | ₹100 Cr+* | Fastest (15 Days) |
With ₹100 Cr already in the bag, Bethlehem Kudumba Unit is well-positioned to climb higher on this list and potentially become Kerala’s highest-grossing film ever if the current trend continues.
Telugu Version Expands Market Reach
The Telugu version of Bethlehem Kudumba Unit has been released today, and the premieres have received good response from audiences. This strategic expansion into the Telugu market opens up additional revenue streams for the romantic comedy.
The combination of Nivin Pauly’s pan-South appeal, Mamitha Baiju’s charming performance, and the film’s engaging romantic comedy narrative has resonated strongly with Kerala audiences, creating an unprecedented box office phenomenon. The film's consistent performance since opening day demonstrates the strong word-of-mouth and repeat audience footfalls driving this success.
