Despite facing backlash over its depiction of riot scenes, Mohanlal’s Empuraan, directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, has successfully crossed the Rs 60 crore nett mark at the domestic box office
Despite facing criticism for its political themes, L2: Empuraan, starring Mohanlal and directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, is performing well at the box office.
The film has earned Rs 60 crore nett domestically and continues to draw audiences. Furthermore, it was reported that the sequel crossed the Rs 100 crore mark worldwide within 48 hours of its release
L2: Empuraan hit theatres on March 27 amidst high expectations, but soon faced controversy over its subtle allusions to the Gujarat riots. The backlash from audiences led the filmmakers to release an edited version of the film.
Empuraan has shown impressive box office performance despite the controversy surrounding its content. With a record-breaking opening of Rs 21 crore nett, it became the highest-grossing Malayalam film on opening day.
Empuraan Box Office Day 4
In just four days, the film has accumulated Rs 59.35 crore domestically, and with the extended Eid holiday and ongoing discussions, it’s expected to see a further boost in its earnings.
On Sunday, Empuraan brought in Rs 14 crore nett at the Indian box office, showing strong numbers according to Sacnilk. The real test for the film will be its performance during the weekdays after the Eid festivities wind down.

The remaining Rs 1 crore came from the film’s Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, and Kannada versions combined.
