Malayalam blockbuster Vaazha 2 has crossed the ₹200 Cr gross mark worldwide, becoming the 5th Mollywood film to achieve this major milestone. The film continues its sensational box office run, with a Telugu version set to release next weekend.
Mollywood’s Elite ₹200 Cr Club
Vaazha 2 now joins an exclusive list of Malayalam films that have crossed the ₹200 Cr mark worldwide. Here’s where it stands among Mollywood’s highest-grossing films:
| Film | Worldwide Gross |
|---|---|
| Lokah | ₹302 Cr |
| Empuraan | ₹265 Cr |
| Manjummel Boys | ₹241 Cr |
| Thudarum | ₹234 Cr |
| Vaazha 2 | ₹200 Cr+ |
The film is still running strong in theatres, and it remains to be seen which position Vaazha 2 will ultimately settle in among these blockbusters. The sequel’s consistent performance has been tracking ahead of early projections since it crossed ₹150 Cr and set its sights on the ₹200 Cr milestone.
Single-Digit Budget Film Creates History
What makes Vaazha 2‘s ₹200 Cr achievement even more remarkable is its modest production cost. Made on a single-digit crore budget, the film’s worldwide gross is a sensational achievement that once again proves content is king at the box office, not the budget.
Just days ago, Vaazha 2 entered Mollywood's all-time top 5 after crossing ₹175 Cr in 13 days, and the momentum has continued with strong holds across all markets.
Telugu Release to Boost Collections Further
With the Telugu dubbed version set to release next weekend, Vaazha 2 has the potential to climb further up Mollywood’s all-time rankings. The film’s strong performance in Kerala and other markets suggests there’s significant room for growth as it expands into the larger Telugu-speaking audience.
Malayalam Cinema’s Impressive Run
In recent years, the Malayalam film industry has produced several ₹100 Cr grossers and continues to deliver big hits at the box office. Vaazha 2 stands as another testament to Mollywood’s ability to create content-driven blockbusters that resonate with audiences across India.
