Empuraan sees a hurdle in recent times with some issues in production houses, and Lyca is replaced by Gokulam Movies. Despite all this, the team did not do much promotion. All these issues were sorted recently, and the trailer is expected to arrive very soon.
Empuraan Overseas: Record Bookings
Still, without any aggressive promotions and with the trailer not yet released, the movie’s advance bookings are off to a phenomenal start. The advance bookings opened in the USA, Canada, UK, and Germany, and the shows are already getting sold out. For example, in America, the advance bookings are now at 130K, which is already a record premiere grosser for Malayalam films with still 9 days to release. The same response is seen in the UK and Germany.
The main territory for Mollywood overseas is the Gulf countries, where bookings are expected to open by today or tomorrow, and it will definitely have a record start here. The trade is expecting a 3M range start in overseas markets, which is an all-time record start for a Malayalam cinema. Not only overseas, but in each and every territory, it is expected to create a new benchmark for Malayalam film openings.
Empuraan Set For 40 Cr Opening:
Worldwide, Marakkar is the biggest opener with around 20 Cr till now for Malayalam films. Empuraan is expected to break this record by more than double the margin, which shows how big the opening is. In Kerala, Leo is the biggest and only double-digit opener, and Empuraan is expected to break the Leo record as well. The blockbuster sequel is carrying massive craze. It did theatrical business at a record range, and now bookings are also off at the same level. The film will have a massive weekend as it is releasing on 27th March (Thursday), with a long weekend and Monday being Eid. If WOM is positive, then the numbers will be insane.
