THE KERALA STORY is on a huge run as collections went up on Tuesday to 11 crore nett. This came with 50 lakhs nett apprx lost in West Bengal as the film was taken out of screens in the state by Monday night due to the ban on the film. The jump on Tuesday is 10% but in real terms it will be close to 15% due to this West Bengal ban.

The total of the film is now 54 crore nett with the film doing extraordinary business in Mumbai circuit and the Central India circuits. The trending is insane with caveat being that it has been seen before with a similar film THE KASHMIR FILES. So, the surprise and shock that was there with that film is not really here with THE KERALA STORY. One point to note is that the collections of THE KERALA STORY are more organic than THE KASHMIR FILES as it had a lot block bookings taken out which is not the case here.

The wait is now where the film lands on Friday and for a film like this, it is difficult to judge where that will land. Although there is a long way to go, it would be no surprise that the film is eventually challenging the collections of THE KASHMIR FILES.

The five day collections of THE KERALA STORY are as follows.

Friday -  6,75,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 10,50,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 16,00,00,000 apprx

Monday - 10,00,00,000 apprx

Tuesday - 11,00,00,000 apprx
