The Kerala Story, Adah Sharma
Box Office India Trade Network

THE KERALA STORY saw its first noticeable drop in its run so far on the fourteenth day due to the release of FAST X. It still managed to collect a healthy 6 crore nett but collections were 20% down from the previous day. But this means that the drop has come and it shouldn;t really drop much today (Friday).

There is also a verdict from the supreme court to allow the film to be screened in West Bengal and Tamil Nadu but it has also ordered the makers not to claim the film as a true story but a fiction version of the subject. This is not just for the banned states but across India. The film has started to be screened in Tamil Nadu but it is not yet released in West Bengal cinemas.

The plus in business will come when it comes back in West Bengal as the film lost around 4-5 crore nett in the circuit so far. THE KERALA STORY has collected 84 crore nett in the second week which takes its overall total to 161 crore nett. The collections of THE KASHMIR FILES look tough for the film to reach but there are four weeks till another big release. So, a 250 crore nett total cant be discounted totally though it will be difficult.

The collections of THE KERALA STORY till date are as follows.
Week One - 77,21,00,000
Friday - 11,50,00,000 apprx
Saturday - 19,00,00,000 apprx
