Trade analysts predict that by the fifth day, 'Empuraan' will have grossed Rs 50 crore from Kerala alone. The film has now climbed to the third spot among the highest-grossing Malayalam films, surpassing 'Aadujeevitham' and 'Aavesham'.
Outside India, 'Empuraan' has reportedly earned over Rs 85 crore, as shared by Mohanlal on social media. Despite the controversy, the film continues its successful run and entered the Rs 100 crore club within just 48 hours of release. 'Empuraan' began its theatrical run on March 27 at 6 am.
