DISASTROUS OPENING for KERALA STORY 2

The Kerala Story 2 Crashes at Box Office on Day 1
The Kerala Story 2 has opened to a very weak response at the box office. On its first day, the film reportedly collected around ₹78 lakh, which is considered extremely low for a nationwide release.
The occupancy figures also reflect the slow start. The film recorded an overall theatre occupancy of approximately 11% across nearly 2,300 scheduled shows. These numbers indicate limited footfall in most regions.
Considering the scale of release and the expectations surrounding the sequel, the Day 1 performance has come as a surprise to trade analysts. The coming weekend will now be crucial to see whether the film can recover through word of mouth or continue to struggle at the box office.
The Kerala Story 2 had a disappointing start at the box office, collecting only around ₹78 lakh on Day 1, with an overall theatre occupancy of just 11% across nearly 2,300 shows, indicating a weak opening and raising concerns about its performance in the coming days unless there is a strong turnaround through word of mouth.
