No major star cast, no massive opening weekend — and yet The Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond is quietly doing its thing at the box office. For a film that opened to just Rs 0.65 crore on Day 1, hitting Rs 25 crore in nine days is genuinely impressive. Here’s the full breakdown.

What the Numbers Tell Us
The Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond collected an estimated Rs 3 crore on its second Saturday, registering a 71 percent spike over the previous day — a drop of just 27 percent compared to the first Saturday, which signals a solid hold at the box office.
That kind of week-on-week retention is the sign of genuine word-of-mouth at work. The film isn’t blowing up on opening weekend, but it’s staying alive — and in today’s multiplex landscape, that matters a lot.
Directed by Kamakhya Narayan Singh and starring Ulka Gupta, Aishwarya Ojha, and Aditi Bhatia in lead roles, the film has a free run of 10 days before Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar: The Revenge arrives. The film is expected to reach the Rs 40 crore nett mark, which would be a solid total for a no-face-value film of this kind.
How It Compares to the Original
When compared to the first film, the sequel’s box office run is nowhere near as strong — the original opened to Rs 6.75 crore and went on to earn Rs 220 crore nett in its full theatrical run. pinkvilla That’s a steep benchmark to chase, and frankly, very few sequels to breakout social dramas have matched the originals. The pattern held true for The Bengal Files as well, which dropped significantly from The Kashmir Files’ numbers.
Still, Rs 25 crore for a content-driven film without a marquee star is commendable.
