The first Mohanlal starrer of 2017, Munthirivallikal Thalirkumbol has completed one-month of its theatrical run on Monday at the Kerala Box Office. The Jibu Jacob second directorial released on 20 January across the cinemas of Kerala. Produced by Bangalore Days maker Sophia Paul, the family entertainer starred Meena as the female lead. Munthirivallikal Thalirkumbol also marks the Mohanlal-Meena duo after 2013 hit Drishyam.
Munthirivallikal Thalirkumbol is continuing its glorious run overseas as well. And now, Munthirivallikal Thalirkumbol has crossed Rs 1 crore mark at the UK Box Office, which is quite remarkable considering that the film had released there last Thursday.
Munthirivallikal Thalirkumbol is enjoying a good run at UAE Box Office as well. The film which had released in just 78 screens across the UAE on Thursday had stiff competition from Akshay Kumar starrer Jolly LLB 2, Suriya starrer Singam 3, Prithviraj’s Ezra and the Hollywood films Gold and The Last Face. But Munthirivallikal Thalirkumbol easily tops all the films to be the numero-uno at the UAE Box Office.
