L2: Empuraan Inches Closer to Box Office Glory, Just ₹3 Cr Away From Kerala’s All-Time Record
Kerala, April 21, 2025 –
Even after 25 days in theatres, L2: Empuraan is proving to be a phenomenon at the Kerala box office. Directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran and headlined by Malayalam superstar Mohanlal, the sequel to Lucifer has now amassed an impressive ₹86 crore gross in Kerala alone — making it the second-highest-grossing Malayalam film ever.
The only film standing ahead is Tovino Thomas’ 2018, which currently holds the record with ₹89 crore. With L2: Empuraan just ₹3 crore short, the industry is abuzz with speculation: Can this political thriller rewrite history?
Despite initial mixed reviews due to its politically-charged narrative, the film scored a massive ₹15 crore opening day gross in Kerala. Sustained audience interest and minimal competition have helped it continue drawing crowds even into its fourth week — a feat rare in today’s fast-paced cinema cycle.
With no major Malayalam releases around the corner, L2: Empuraan has a golden window to push past 2018‘s lifetime total. However, recent day-wise collections have dipped, making the ₹3 crore milestone a 50-50 possibility.
Trade experts suggest that a strong weekend or positive word-of-mouth boost could make all the difference in this final stretch.
Beyond numbers, the film’s legacy lies in its scale, star power, and audience connect. As fans keep a close watch on every collection update, the possibility of L2: Empuraan becoming Kerala’s all-time top grosser remains tantalizingly close.
