L2 Empuraan Box Office Day 8: Mohanlal’s Mass Thriller Enters Week 2 With ₹87.78 Crore in India
April 4, 2025 |Mohanlal-starrer L2 Empuraan continues its successful theatrical run as it enters the second week with an impressive ₹87.78 crore net collection in India. Directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, the film is a sequel to the 2019 blockbuster Lucifer and shows signs of being on track to become the highest-grossing Malayalam film ever.
The political action-thriller began its journey with a grand ₹21 crore opening and went on to collect ₹84.35 crore in its first week. On Day 8 (Thursday), it added another ₹3.43 crore, maintaining steady interest despite a slight dip in midweek collections.
L2 Empuraan came under scrutiny for its depiction of sensitive issues including a fictionalized version of the 2002 Gujarat riots. Amid backlash, the makers voluntarily made 24 cuts, altering scenes involving religious structures, violence against women, and even changing the antagonist’s name. Actor-politician Suresh Gopi clarified in Parliament that these changes were made independently by the producers and Mohanlal, in consultation with the director.

L2 Empuraan continues the saga of Stephen Nedumpally aka Khureshi Ab’raam, portrayed by Mohanlal. Prithviraj reprises his role as Zayed Masood, his trusted aide. The climax teases L3: The Beginning, with Pranav Mohanlal appearing as the younger Stephen, setting the stage for a prequel.
With a strong weekend expected ahead, trade analysts suggest that L2 Empuraan could cross the ₹100 crore mark soon, reinforcing Mohanlal’s reign at the Malayalam box office.
