Aadhi: Pranav Mohanlal, Antony Perumbavoor, Drishyam maker's blockbuster crosses Rs. 50 crore
2018's first Malayalam blockbuster Aadhi is nearing 100 days of it's theatrical run at the Kerala Box Office. The film, which marked the acting debut of Malayalam superstar Mohanlal's son Pranav Mohanlal as the male lead has been produced by Antony Perumbavoor under his home banner Aashirvad Cinemas. Directed by Drishyam fame Jeethu Joseph, Aadhi also stars an ensemble star cast including Aditi Ravi, Anusree, Jagapati Babu, Lena, Siddique, Sharaf U Dheen, Siju Wilson, Meghanathan and Sijoy Varghese.
While Aadhi is all set to cross the 100 theatrical days, the film has set a unique record at the Box Office.
On Sunday, the Pranav Mohanlal starrer has crossed the coveted Rs. 50 crore mark at the Box Office. It's a remarkable feat considering the debut film of a lead actor.
Antony Perumbavoor took to his Facebook page to share the collection update of Aadhi on Sunday, on the auspicious occasion of Vishu.
Upon its release, Aadhi had stiff competition from Bollywood releases Shahid Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh's Padmaavat and Akshay Kumar, Sonam Kapoor and Radhika Apte starrer Pad Man. But the Pranav Mohanlal film managed to show steady collections after registering an excellent opening week.
Aadhi has been praised for its gripping story and the performances of Aadhi, especially his parkour stunt sequences, which is a first time visual treat for Malayalam film audience.
