Dulquer Salman’s Kurup is now streaming on Netflix. The movie was set to be premiered on OTT on 17th of December. But due to some situations, Netflix brought it before audience today itself. The movie performed pretty great at Kerala Box office but didn’t fare well in Andhra. However, it was a decent hit in Tamil Nadu.
Kurup is the highest grosser in Dulquer Salman’s career. This movie is based on the real life story of a fugitive based out of Kerala. A guy named Chaco killed a guy and made his corpse see as his own so that he can claim the insurance money.
This left the entire state in shock back then. While all his accomplices were caught by police, he escaped. Its been 40 years and Kurup is yet to be caught by police. His story is slowly turning into an urban myth. Dulquer Salman did a great performance as Kurup.
Although some section of audience criticized romanticizing a murderer for the sake of movie, it didn’t affect its run at the box office. Shobhitha Dhulipala acted as the female lead in this movie.
