BOV Boxoffice Review - 2013 Week 16

After a short and forced hiatus, BOV is back with a bang. Here is the verdict for the Mollywood Vishu Boxoffice Battle.!

RANK # 1 – SOUND THOMA

True star power belies any word of mouth.  Dileep once again proves that he is the best bet at the Mollywood in the current state of affairs. He lifts Sound Thoma to financial success with a stupendous performance.  Despite the mixed initial reports and tough competition, Sound Thoma sprints to the finishing line with audacity.

Gross : 7.92 Crores (24 Days)

Verdict : HIT

RANK # 2 – LADIES & GENTLEMEN

Some combinations are craved for. Ladies & Gentleman presented us one of those, after one and a half decade. When Siddique and Mohanlal come together after Vietnam Colony, the place for a film lover is right at the theatres. Though the product failed to deliver anywhere near what was expected from it, the good opening secures Ladies & Gentlemen a safe position at the boxoffice.

Gross : 6.05 Crores (17 Days)
Verdict : GOOD OPENING

RANK # 3 – IMMANUEL

Mammootty’s successful 2013 continues with Immanuel. The tremendous vibe which it has managed to created amongst the viewers ensures that the film is here to stay for a long time. A shoe-string budget meant that the film broke even in the second week itself. Fahad Fazil keeps up the momentum gained from Amen.

Gross : 5.97 Crores (24 Days)
Verdict : HIT

RANK # 4 – AMEN

Class and quality always has its place in this industry. Hats off to Farid Khan for placing his trust on a Director who has produced a couple of gems which have gone unnoticed at the boxoffice. Amen may or may not appeal to you, but the boxoffice success sure does appeal to the trade pundits.

Gross : 5.18 Crores (38 Days)

Verdict : ABOVE AVERAGE

RANK # 5 – CLIMAX

Climax has failed at the boxoffice miserably, without much patronage from either the theatres or the viewing public, as the industry, which is already facing severe theatre shortage, is forced to push over the products with average content.

Gross : 0.19 Crores

Verdict : FLOP
